Strummer's Bar & Grill Concerts 2024-2025

A great little venue for the Central Valley. All ages, but liquor is served and some people don't know how to handle their liquor so kids may be in the fray. Great sound, good security team trying their best, but there's no accounting for people consuming liquor.

Great place if your looking for hardcore vibes or just generally anything of any genre, whether it be cupcake, loveless, DJ nights, Taylor Swift nights, emo, numetal, they have it ALL. These things usually start anytime after 6-7 from my personal experience. There are homeless in the area but are pretty much harmless. There's food areas, and 2 bars inside the venue. They also provide water for $1! With the occasion of merch etc. Depending on the occasion there may or may not be some crazy/weird people. Not all the time, from what I've saw it's rare. Everyone there is usually a vibe and the security is amazing! Totally recommend.

This place always held a special place in my heart, but after my experience tonight; I will not be returning. I live in the area and frequent Strummers on a minimum once a week basis, often times attending more than once a week. I know all the bartenders/security for the most part, and have never had a problem in the 5+ years I have been going to the venue. I was enjoying Emo Night until I had a random guy try to fight me after claiming that I spit water on him. I didn’t even have a drink at the time, nor had I even seen the guy up until this point. It was obvious that he was intoxicated. Considering that all the security know me pretty well, I immediately brought the situation to their attention, and they did nothing. They essentially said to drop it, even though dude had repeatedly said he would assault me if he saw me stay at the venue. I honestly feel betrayed, and will not be giving them another dollar of my money if that’s how they treat “regulars”, especially if the situation is revolved around violence. I’ll surely miss the venue. Hopefully they get it together.

Security dead eyed me and my brother for no reason and acted like they wanted to fight us and others in line. When an actual fight broke out in front of the building they didn't intervene. Police shown up and stopped the fight while security sat back and laughed. Someone yelled out something at the security while this was happening and security actually tried to fight them. The shows are still pretty cool when the venue is packed and the pits are going. But the last few shows I go to most people stand to the side and drink. Used to have good times here. I feel sorry for the owner because I hear he doesn't like how his security is either too chill or too hostile. Hope that gets fixed.

Careful with security as they are very sensitive in what you say to them. Never seen a worst security team in my life. The only negative of the venue. Remove security, and the venue would have a much better environment.
