Definitely worth a visit (or two or three!). Oh yeah: My CD is on sale there...
Majestical Roof in Pasadena just added "desert..." to their store this week. The store's title pretty much says it all; it's a one-of-a-kind place. I just did a performance today in their courtyard w/Michael Gayle and will continue doing periodic gigs there. Located in Old Town at 88 N. Fair Oaks 102, a special neighborhood, great walking area. Their phone is 626-844-8886.
