A twisted, musical dark comedy featuring the music of Gram Parsons - the godfather of alt-rock country - and one of the most gloriously messed-up, debauch rock ‘n roll stories of all-time. A stolen corpse, cosmic country music, and one seriously botched cremation. In 1973, Gram Parsons made a pact with his tour manager, Phil Kaufman- whoever dies first, the other would cremate their body at Joshua Tree. Gram died first. Phil stole his body. It all didn't turn out as planned… Gram Parsons: Tim Hassler Phil Kaufman: Harmon Leon Music: Max Newland Written/Directed: Harmon Leon (This American Life) RESERVE A SEAT: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-roast-of-gram-parsons-tickets-1591184308099?aff=oddtdtcreator
