I think that Jeff and I must have walked into BeBop Records and Fine Art not too long after they first opened: Hanging out in record stores was a way we spent a considerable portion of our youth. Rich Bruland and Rene Engel, the shop’s co-owners, were hung ho when we asked about putting on shows there – yet another example of adults being completely open to these young teenage kids with nothing but gumption. We put on several shows there – both ones that EDB played at and others. With the record racks pushed over to the side, BeBop was a fantastic place to see shows – especially for kids in the Valley.
