To whom it may concern, I am the Creative Director for an Ad Agency in the Bay Area. It is truly unfortunate that I have to write this, as it is against my Buddhist nature, but after three such unfortunate incidents with the same individual, I have been advised that my Situational Ethical responsibility is to make folks aware. I have only been to 19-Broadway three times, each time for a benefit of some sort. We had heard that this last Saturday was about Breast Cancer and my wife and I wanted to show our support because we have lived closely with this issue in our family. A small group of us came from a Party in Mill Valley and arrived a little before midnight. We stayed for about six or eight songs by the various contributing amateur performers. At near one a.m. we decided to leave. My wife does not drink at all and in our small group we all had consumed a total of five drinks—the first of which I had paid with cash because there was a $20 minimum for using credit/debit cards and I was only having one or two more after our party. When I got back to my group by the stage I realized that they too were thirsty, so I asked around and ended up charging 4 more drinks to my debit card. As we were leaving and saying goodnight I went back to the bar and asked for my check, only to be extremely surprised by a credit card charge for nine (9) drinks. I asked the very young bartender for his attention but before I could finish my sentence he jumped down my throat yelling and screaming at me at me at the top of his voice, “Sir you drank nine beers.” As I tried to explain that I was with a group and that I had paid cash for the first and that we had just arrived and that we had only charged four beers he began to yell at the top of his lungs over and over again, “which was it sir, was it four or five beers? Which was it sir did you have four or five beers?” over and over again. I could not get a word in edgewise over his screaming at me and then he just yelled to the manager or bouncer, “GET HIM OUTTA HERE!!” My wife and I just walked out in disbelieve. I never had a chance to sign my check for the four drinks, but after witnessing this very low class behavior three times, I have become concerned that they in fact may have charged me for the nine drinks. I am now having to keep an eye my bank account this week to see what debits come in. Now, clearly this young man is not only petty a thief, but also needs anger management classes. The most unfortunate issue here is that his low class demeanor also reflects and is indicative of the establishment. I recommend that anyone reading this should boycott this establishment—especially non-profits who wish to host their events in a peaceful and friendly atmosphere. The previous two times had only been one and two drinks extra, respectively, that had been charged to my card by this kid, but I had let it go because I had not paid attention to the bill when I signed it. I had written the first one off as a mistake. The second time, I was infuriated and swore never to go back to this dive. I went back this time because the group was insistent that we should at least show our face for support. The best I can conjure of what happened all three times, as I observed, and by this young man’s rash and violent display, was that at these benefits not too many people drink alcohol and the performances are truly not for just anyone walking off the street, so business at the bar is slow. You can figure out the rest. Please be aware of the young white short kid behind the bar. In my opinion, he is a thief. In my opinion this reflects the establishment and therefore as long as this unprofessional child works there, they too are thieves. Sincerely Jaime Tomas Ordonez Victoria

Im a reggae fan, so I try to go to a lot shows around the Bay Area. 19 Broadway is the worst place to go see a show just because the artists always come out around 12:45 AM or 1:00PM, and that really sucks. I think everyone should be aware of that. However, Im thankful for the reggae shows that they do there. Just wish they would let them come out some time tonight. And tthe DJ that they have there sucks, the whole funking time his talking over the track. Not Jiack & Guac, they are great.
