Talented artist filled the stage. 12 member band left them little room to move but it looked like they had a blast performing. Ordering drinks and snacks is easy but come early if you want to eat. The sound and lighting is very good in this small venue and I especially like that they don't have it so loud your eardrums are going to rupture! Staff is very accommodating and knowledgeable. If you have an issue with anything just ask. Bartenders are quick and the drinks are good. Expect to pay premium prices. Don't forget to grab some popcorn before the show start. Oh yeah, the upstairs bar is Cash Only! You can purchase drinks with a card down stairs then take your receipt upstairs for a drink. Find a concert you'd like to see and give this place a try! I think you'll enjoy it!

World Records is not just a record store, it is also one of the best music venues in town, if not…read morethe best since The Crystal Palace folded. For the size of the place to the down right decent ticket prices, Pat and his crew do a bang up job time and time again. I've seen a lot of music in my life, and some of the best shows have been at World Records, I'm talking artists like Mindi Abair, Sugaray Rayford, Ana Popovich, and Selwyn Birchwood, just to name a few. This is top notch talent all the way! Great acoustics, small and comfy, it's just an excellent place to see music. The fact that the artists come out and sign autographs etc. at the end of the show is the kind of experience you can rarely find any more or any place else. Kudos to Pat for all the hard work and effort he has put into this place. No matter who is playing, it's really hard to not have a good time in such a great place! Thanks!!

Another knock out concert held at World Records. The incomparable Walter Trout was in the house!…read more The lovely local Glenda Robles and Hot Taco opened the show. 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.

Beer is either $7.50 for water beer or $9.50 for good beer--outrageous. The chairs are tied so close together that you have to sit on your neighbors lap--luckily we had a nice cool night. the music was very good for a cover band (Abba) and worth the $35. Also, they have lots of the park taped off so people can't listen for free. ?how can they do that at a public park funded with tax payer dollars?. we used to go to shows all the time--I doubt we will be back.. shame on you for being so greedy. let people at least bring in their own water.

The servers and service are both excellent, and very welcoming. The food is what you would expect from a place as cool as this. At Christmas time, they deck the whole place out, and it's very festive and charming. KC Steakhouse is another one of my top places to dine in Bakersfield when I've got some extra cash, and I have never had anything close to a bad experience. If you like plaid mini-skirts, good food and drinks, this is the place to go for a good time!

This evening was our second experience at BSO's Home for the Holidays! For us, it was an…read moreExtravaganza! From the 'Will Call' table organization to the Panama School Strolling Strings to the BC Choir and of course, the BSO itself. ABSOLUTELY SUBLIME! NOT ONE note out of tune. And, being a former semi-professional violist and teacher myself, I feel somewhat confident in making that statement. I played under Alberto Bolet of the then Kern Philharmonic and John Farrer, first conductor of the Bakersfield Symphony Orchestra. Those were the days that ALL conductors wore FULL-DRESS TUXEDOS that really get your attention that these conductors were absolutely serious about their role in leading and commanding very much deserved and earned respect as "THE" sole individual responsible for orchestral musical performance outcomes. And, SUCH a refreshing thing to see then (as it would be now) in an era of far-too casual dress at special performances like these. Many concert-goers know the dedication, wood-shedding-hours-upon-hours of practice and sacrifice these musicians must make to perfect their performance - as well as those who do not...but for me...that tuxedo says it all... Oh, what a fabulous tradition we have here in this town! A professional LIVE orchestra - available to the masses at all price points - in a marvelous theatre with outrageous acoustics too. If you haven't experienced this Christmas Time TREASURE - you are MISSING it! They even have delicious snacks before concert time, beautiful LIVE stringed instruments being played by the youth from Panama School in the lobby, coloring tables for kids, and adult beverages plus photo ops...ALL under one roof! Incredible - and for such a reasonable price!! The security staff this year far outshone that of last year's. AND, let's not forget the wonderful ushers that help everyone find their seats (and even improve their seating if necessary due to accessibility issues)...simply over-the-top. HEY BAKERSFIELD! LET'S FILL THE AUDITORIUM TO THE BRIM NEXT YEAR!!!! WAY TO GO BSO AND BC CHOIR! UTTERLY FANTASTIC! Makes me really want to pick up my violin again and teach. Now that's going some after 50 years...Don't you think so?

The symphony is wonderful, but it's not worth going. First, the box office charges you a…read moreridiculous amount in "fees" because they don't sell you tickets direct - they actually just log into axs, so you are paying an online provider even if you buy at the box office, and in our case the fees were 50% of the cost of our tickets. Fix this . . . Second, the crowd is unbearable. People were talking incessantly, standing up frequently during the performance, eating during the performance, and one person let their phone ring (not just once, but the same person with a distinct ring three times during the performance)(the conductor made a joke of it, but seriously, get a hint). If you pay a ton of money to hear music, you don't want the constant chatter, wrappers, and other distractions of the crowd. Finally, the seats are absurdly uncomfortable. They are much smaller than any venue I've been in, they are plastic, and they are mounted into a concrete floor. To be honest, I could probably put up with the venue, and rationalize the cost as supporting the arts . . . but the crowd, the noise, and the distractions ruin the experience.
