Originally known as the Pizza Pub, new owners??Dom DiSilvio and his then-wife Jan Chepes, renamed this iconic Oakland spot The Decade and made it 1950s-themed restaurant. As 50's nostalgia waned, DiSilvio started booking contemporary rock music acts. The New York Dolls, Ramones, and an up-and-coming trio called The Police, a quartet called U2, just to name a few, took The Decade stage??over the years. It closes in 1995.
