I would like to know more about Pat Yeigh’s involvement — I updated the Wikipedia entry a couple of years ago after coming across the 1956 Valley News article, but I haven’t found anything since.

Jayne, it’s a tough call placing a price on such things, everything that’s a type of music or entertainment memorabilia is worth something, but you need a buyer!
I’d suggest comparing similar items on sites like ebay.

If you are on facebook, check out the Palomino Club fan page, it’s worth a look and you can ask much the same question.

I acquired dozens of deadstock t-shirts and tank tops from the Palomino club that were available for sale in the late 70’s, as well as a silk embroidered palomino club jacket and some various tour tshirts of artists who played there in the 70’s and 80’s like jerry lee lewis, bobby bare, etc. What kind of value would these items have to a collector? I got them from someone who worked there and the stories were amazing…

The pic of the sign from the top of the page is a still from a 1967 film starring Marty Robbins.
In the film he finishes a car race at the Nashville speedway, then appears at the Pal’ that night.. obviously in the film, the club wasn’t located in Nashville.

The Flying Burritos logo was added by me for a blog post on the bootleg recording issued from some legit tapes made at the Pal when the Burritos were the Monday band, June of 1969 for the live recordings.

That pic has been lifted so many times now, but it is essentially a fake, but it did the job.

I remember the Palomino Club well. It was so much fun and so rich in talent. I was saddened to learn of its’ demise.

I “discovered” the Palomino by accident when I stopped in there for a beer after working on ‘Mainframe’ computers in the valley in 1981. In those days we wore White shirts and Three-Piece suits, so got lots of stares from the ‘locals’. Was fortunate to attend -many- ‘mini-concerts’ when whoever was performing did their soundchecks and Talent Night was legendary in that you never knew who was going to show up. There were pictures on the walls of everyone who had played there…what a gallery! One of my fondest memories is sitting on the steps of Loretta Lynn’s Tour Bus in the parking lot at night and talking to her while she gave me her autograph. What a beautiful person.
Thank you for the wonderful memories.

Had some damn great times at the Palomino in the 70’s. Sorry to hear is closed. A real loss to Americana.

I worked at the Palomino in the 80’s and was a regular until it closed in 1995. I have great memories of seeing Dwight Yokum before he made it big, and was working there the day the Red Hot Chili Peppers caused a near riot. I loved that place!
