Theme: Remembering Kris Kristofferson

Join Voodoo H3 to honor the passing of legendary outlaw country singer and movie star Kris Kristofferson. Many of Kris’ songs were inspired by his time flying helicopters in Louisiana oil fields. Kris was such an accomplished helicopter pilot and songwriter that he once landed his heli in Johnny Cash’s yard to drop off song demos – including “Sunday Morning Coming Down”. The hit song “City of New Orleans”, performed by the supergroup The Highwaymen, was a bittersweet tale of America’s declining train culture. Kristofferson was an Army Ranger, a Rhodes Scholar, and an outspoken activist.

Let’s cross some tracks, fall prey to our rock star vices, and maybe kill a few vampires a’ la Blade (RIP Whistler!). Dress as your best country outlaw, washed up 70s rocker, or 90’s vampire/raver.
