Mar 22 2017 [Burgers] A kind of funky restaurant with a 50's and 60's style to it but.. the food wasn't as interesting. Everything seemed less than advertised and in the case of my fries undercooked so I can't recommend it from my or my friends experience. Maybe others had better ones.
Aside from the unbelievably cheap drinks, the next most amazing thing about the Sideshow is the jukebox. Patsy Cline, Gladys Knight, Bobby Darin, and all your favorites on real 45s - officially two plays for a quarter but you usually get like 8 or 9 before it finally cuts you off.

At the end of the war, in 1946, sales of the Wurlitzer 1015 Jukebox went off with a bang. People were mesmerized by the styling details, including animated bubble tubes, revolving color columns, and a revealed record changing mechanism. This forerunner to today's One More Time model sold over 56,000 units during its first 18 months on the market—going on to become the most successful jukebox of all time.
Throughout the next few decades following the jukebox's golden years, Wurlitzer continued to steadily release innovative designs. The record selection capacity increased. The audio quality of the jukeboxes became more powerful, and stereo sound quickly replaced mono. During this period, musical standards also shifted from 78 RPM vinyl records to 45s and LPs. Wurlitzer was consistently an early adapter of these new technologies. The popularity of jukeboxes, however, began to wane slightly in these years as television took over as the dominant form of entertainment.
A Wiegandt Tonmaster from Berlin. How cool is this? I visited the barber today. Mikael has been busy turning his barbershop into a 1950s museum. This is his latest find. A cool jukebox. Sadly the seller removed all the original records, and when Mikael turned it on we heard Never Gonna Give You Up with Rick Astley! Which was a bit of a chock. Maybe next time I visit, we can listen to some Bill Haley.
