They have so much talent it's a pleasure that they are a Bakersfield band. Accompanying Walter this evening was Teddy Zig Zag on keyboards, John Avila on base, Michael Leisure on drums and John Trout, Walter's Son, vocals & guitar. What an all star band each member having a storied history of their own. On concert nights you can call ahead to order one of Jimmy's famous wood fired pizzas for a little nosh preconcert. Check out World Records website for upcoming shows and events. It's a great venue if you are looking to host an event. And as always music for sale.

She helped me grab a petticoat from the wall and showed me to their little dressing room even though it was close to closing! Most places would be annoyed but she was extremely patient and sweet with me. While I was shopping around there were some loud people messing around and it sounded like they dropped something. If you go into an antique store, please be respectful and mindful that you're surrounded by old and valuable items, most importantly, items that don't belong to you. This may be where some people are getting a "rude attitude" because I'm Mexican, and didn't sense any of the racism or rudeness that people talk about in these reviews. I also try to be very respectful when entering a store of any kind. Expect the same treatment and attitude that you give out.

Just went in for a visit today, first time and so disappointed. I was excited to explore and look…read morefor some cool finds. Sadly it was ruined by one of the workers. As my boyfriend and I were browsing through their selection we decided to stop to take a picture at a mirror near one of their sections. I don't know if the employee knew how loud she was but we clearly heard her comment, "Every time people pass by that mirror they stop to take a picture. It's stupid. It's dumb." It dampened our moods completely. We didn't get to even finish looking at the front of the store. We put the item we had in our hand back in their place and left. Really saddened about the experience and the fact that we couldn't enjoy the rest of the store as we could see they had lots of variety and the prices seemed reasonable from what we did see. Here are some of the pictures we managed to take before leaving. Update: upon further review a lot of recent reviews seem to be about the same women with the same common factor. She only provides terrible atmosphere and service to people of color. Which is very disappointing to see that so many customers come excited to come and explore to only leave feeling worse due to something we can't change. Especially in this climate and day of age, it's saddening to see such hate being spread.
