Monday’s Hot Tickets: Hunter S. Thompson, One Pixy Stix Sandwich, and 99 Barrels of Beer

breakfastclubAh, 1985: the year that brought us Ronald Reagan’s second term in the Oval Office, the first FDA-approved blood test for AIDS, USA for Africa’s “We Are The World” — and The Breakfast Club. The Troc screens it tonight at Movie Monday. It rolls at 8 p.m., but you need to get there early (doors open at 6:30) to score a decent seat. Your $3 admission gets you a $3 voucher for food or drink. I’m sure there’s a good reason why they don’t just make the thing free, but it eludes me. Meanwhile, the Wilma offers Dr. Strangelove.

And in case you missed the throngs of buzzed masses this weekend, it’s officially Philly Beer Week. Tonight’s featured events: Alison at Blue Bell’s dinner featuring Yards Brewery; Flying Dog Brewing Co.’s tribute to Hunter S. Thompson at Pub On Passyunk East (a.k.a. The POPE), complete with readings, movies, and lots of drinking; and London Grill’s meatball-and-beer party with Brooklyn Brewery.
