Royce Hall

Honored enough in the musical community for an entire throng of
artists to put on a tribute show the very next night, here’s
the chance to see the singer-songwriter who dropped out of UCLA for
a record deal with Reprise Records back in the ’60s. Since,
he has gone on to release over 20 records, score films such as
“Toy Story,” and work on musical adaptations for the
stage. Student tickets are $25. Go to www.uclalive.org for more
