Fresno loses a venue: Pizzaland closes again
It's hell trying to keep an all-ages venue alive; Fresno's Pizzaland has closed again and this time it may be for good. (I hope the blog I posted yesterday didn't jinx it.)
The closing of Pizzaland wasn't actually due to nerds blogging, it was financial - as always with all-ages venues. The time I was in there, the teens in attendance weren't buying jack from Pizzaland and were actually buying water at Dan's liquor and coming in with it - the same shit Pizzaland was selling. When you have cheap/broke kids as eighty percent of your customers, it's hard to stay open.
Even with all this Joe, the owner, still plans to look for another venue for hosting bands...good luck ya crazy bastard. Thursday night's Capistrano show at Pizzaland got moved to the Brown Building. Don't ask me what the hell it is, I just know its by Pelco and where planes fly around a lot.

Pizzaland
Well I have never been to pizzaland, but we wouldnt mind getting places like that in our neck of the woods. I believe there is a big market for family restaurants and entertainment area in our area. There is tons of new housing developement but no entertainment. So come on down to the Sunnyside area. If any ones listening reopen sunnyside bowling alley, and add a chuckecheese type thing there please.
