On Thursday, March 30th, The Exploratorium in San Francisco will host a listening party to celebrate the release of the new Residents album, The Ghost of Hope. But unlike other listening parties you may have attended, The Residents themselves will be there, adding live texture to the album as it plays.

To be clear, this is not a full-fledged Residents performance, but it is a unique way to experience the new album, and of course another opportunity to breathe the same air as your musical heroes. The Exploratorium is also known as the Museum of Science, Art, and Human Perception, with many fascinating interactive exhibits, so why not make it a full day of discovery?

The Ghost of Hope will be released on CD and vinyl on March 24th.
