    Damn, I gotta say for me, 2025 was a great year for concerts…read more Twenty shows all told, at venues ranging geographically over six thousand miles from Southern and Northern California, to Las Vegas, to Tulsa, Oklahoma and Munich, Germany. It truly was a great year. If you would've asked me on June 1 what was my favorite of the 2025 shows I'd seen I would have said the two Dead & Company concerts I saw at the Las Vegas Sphere. Absolutely incredible shows. But then in October I travelled to Tulsa to see some shows at Cain's Ballroom. I visit Oklahoma every year and I always make it a point to see a show or two at Cain's. This year at Cain's I saw two artists I had never heard of before. The headliner for the two shows I saw was Josh Meloy. He was good, and had a fantastic band behind him. But it was the band opening the show for Josh on the first night that blew me away: Kenny Feidler and the Cowboy Killers. I don't remember the last time I saw a band that I immediately fell in love with so completely. I walked out of that show a changed person. Kenny is a prolific songwriter. He's a former rodeo star and many of his songs reflect that experience. Most commonly Kenny's music is classified as Alt-Country, but I don't actually know what that means. What I do know, though, is rock and roll. And Kenny's band, The Cowboy Killers are a kick ass rock and roll band. First thing I did after seeing him at Cain's was go online to check out Kenny's tour schedule. I was so happy to discover he would be playing some shows in California in December. I had to choose between Costa Mesa and Fresno. Costa Mesa would've been closer but after I checked out the Yelp page for Fulton 55, I instantly knew this would be the place to see a show. And I was right. The venue is a great place to see live music. Security at the door was cool. Inside, the sound was clear and loud, the crowd was chill, and it didn't take forever to get a drink at the bar. Brady Stovall opened the show and I enjoyed his set. I liked how his drummer just used the Cowboy Killer's drummer's kit, so it didn't take long between bands. Kenny Feidler and the boys played a 17 song, 90 minute set that included a blistering, nearly six minute version, of the song Cowboy Killers. Happily, a lot of the songs performed were from Kenny's most recent (2025) release, The Western Tragedy, including Idaho Hippies and The Bronc Fighter. After the show I got the chance to meet Kenny and get a photo. What a great guy! This wasn't the first time Kenny has played a show at 55 Fulton, and inshallah it won't be the last. Whenever that next show happens, for sure I'm gonna be there. Mikey C says: damn right!

    Always a good time here. A great place to see one of your favorite bands play. Two full bars…read moredownstairs and downstairs as well as big bathrooms on both floors, one labeled Females, one labeled Males. Lots of seating with tables both upstairs & downstairs and a great view of the stage where ever you are.

"Back in the day," I've come to see a huge variety of shows. I hope they get to that point again with good attendance since this space is pretty large and open. This is a pretty old building pretty much next door to Warnors Theater. It's showing some wear, I felt bad for the old bar top that is really scraped and scuffed (and sticky). but this is still a decent place for shows or to rent for events. It can feel empty if there aren't a lot of people. Our last two visits were to hear music, both times really good - DJ Mr Leonard about a month ago and then The Box playing live with local artists Hope Garcia and Ben Napoles. Both times music was great and I had so much fun dancing .... But there was hardly anyone in attendance! Just crazy. My biggest complaint is that they rarely have any good beers. And the draft beer tastes ... off. The other thing is the drinks are inconsistent. So I stick to simple here; jack and coke, etc. and that's kind of a bummer. *however,* I can get a simple (and large) drink of say, Tanqueray or Courvesior with soda for just $8. I'll take it! Last night they were serving tacos for cheap, which was nice - we bought another round with them so also smart lol. And bartenders have always been friendly, no assholes. Also important, bathrooms have always been clean. Live long and prosper, Frank's Place

    This review is so long overdue! I have so many memories here dating back to when it was called…read moreStarline and it was 18 and over. Fast forward to now, it has been renamed to Strummer's but it still possesses the same concept except it's 21 and over now. I've seen cover bands here, rock bands and I've come to boogie for their themed nights like 70s night 80s night ,90s night and dark wave. The cover charge is usually five dollars. There's two bars, one adjacent to the dance floor and then the main bar with booths and seating. They do offer food as well like $5 pizza slices, Mozz, stocks, sliders and your typical bar food fare. The crowd ranges here from Young 21-year-olds to people in their 50s and 60s. It kind of depends on the theme of the night. For example, if you come on Bad Bunny night, it's all youngsters in their 20s. If you come for a disco night or 80s night, then it'll be a wider range. Security is tight and they do a good job of repelling any type of drama because it is notorious that fights breakout in the Tower, but they keep all that drama at bay here. You can always expect to have a good time especially with a group of friends. I definitely recommend checking them out and looking at their lineup to see what appeals to you.

    I've been coming down from Sacramento for shows here for a long time. I've seen some great…read moreshows.I've seen Marie Osmond, Johnny Mathis, Jay Leno, Bill Engvall, and others. I also saw the show "Jersey Boys" here. Every year they do a Broadway series of around five or six shows, and then they have other entertainers come in as well. It's definitely an asset to the community. It's a great venue. They have two theaters. The larger theater holds about 1200 people, all of the seats are good, they are comfortable, with a great sound system. I haven't been into the smaller theater, but that holds about 450 people. The theater is well kept, and all of the employees are friendly. Street parking is limited, but there is a big garage only about a block and a half away, and the best thing is, they only charge five bucks for parking. They don't check your tickets when you first walk into the building , because they have a ticket office and a will call desk in the lobby.. They check your tickets. Once you head into the theater. Prices are typical for what you would pay at other venues. Of course, it depends on how close you are sitting to the stage one thing. Be sure that you buy tickets from the official Gallo center webpage. Several ticket brokers. Make it look like they are the official page, but they are not, and you will pay a pretty penny more They have a decent concession area, with beer, wine, soft drinks, and snacks., the only thing is, if you want to take your drink into the theater, , and you don't have one, you have to buy one of their "souvenir cups" with a lid for an additional three bucks. Just keep it and you won't have to pay that again. The show I saw this time around, was "Mrs. Doubtfire, the musical." as strange as that sounds, it's a wonderful show. No, you are not getting Sally Field or Robin Williams, but the people who played the roles were absolutely fantastic. The kids were really cute too. I had seen the show on Broadway, and when I saw it was coming to Modesto, I just had to see it again. Just an overall great evening, well worth the drive down. Thank you

Keanu Reeves is the bass guitarist and humbly performed without saying a word. Besides the over-eager fan yelling at Keanu to talk to her for a good thirty minutes straight, the crowd was actually tame. We talked to the guy sitting alone after the yelling fan left. He said he didn't know her, and we all shared a laugh. After that, back to an unusually quiet crowd. The staff was very friendly and personable. Parking is close, and the location feels safe.
