Red
Eft Gallery presents…
I See By My Outfit — The Book, The Music, The Experience!
Special live music
show for two nights only! On July
18th & 19th, PETER S. BEAGLE
and His Band of Merry Men ( aka PHIL SIGUNICK ) will be
performing together in public for the first time in 44 years, at the Red Eft Gallery in Wurtsboro, NY. Doors open
at 7 pm for ticketed
guests. Peter's and Phil's last
gig as a duo was all the way back in 1964, when they opened for Tom Paxton at a
club in Berkeley. Fans of Peter's
classic travel memoir, I See By My Outfit, will absolutely not want to miss this
chance to be there when Phil and Peter pick up their guitars and recapture the
magic that helped make their long-ago cross-country journey so
extraordinary.
There are only 83 seats available for each night. Tickets are $20. If you want to be
there for this rare musical treat, make sure you get your reservation in ASAP by • emailing Connor Cochran at connor@conlanpress.com or • calling him at either 925-260-2725 or 415-731-2267 (if you get voicemail, please leave a message). 
There will be
refreshments before each show, and a chance to get books
signed and hang around with Peter and Phil afterward.
The music will begin around 8
pm.
Peter S. Beagle was born in 1939 and raised in the Bronx, just a few blocks from Woodlawn Cemetery, the inspiration for his first novel, A FINE AND PRIVATE PLACE. He originally proclaimed he would be a writer when he was 10 years old. Subsequent events have proven him either prescient or even more stubborn than hitherto suspected. Today, thanks to classic works such as THE LAST UNICORN, TAMSIN, and THE INNKEEPER'S SONG, he is acknowledged as America's greatest living fantasy author; and his dazzling abilities with language, characters, and magical storytelling have earned him many millions of fans around the world. In addition to stories and novels Peter has written numerous teleplays and screenplays, including the animated versions of THE LORD OF THE RINGS and THE LAST UNICORN, plus the fan-favorite "Sarek" episode of STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION. His nonfiction book I SEE BY MY OUTFIT, which recounts a 1963 journey across America on motor scooter, is considered a classic of American travel writing; and he is also a gifted poet, lyricist, and singer/songwriter.
Phil Sigunick is a very talented painter who is currently devoting his efforts to making the Red Eft Gallery a world-class place to find original fine art (and consequently not painting enough to satisfy). He is creative director, curator and scapegoat and still whistles while he works. He lives in Cragsmoor.
