5 Businesses That Shaped Lubbock
Who doesn t love to talk about the business that used to rule the landscape around here? I ve got five that ll surely bring back some memories.
The first of this list may always be the Buffalo Beano Company. This was a head shop with a little something extra. Of course, they had pipes (for TOBACCO ONLY) but they also were the hookups for kites and skateboards. They also were the only place at the time to get really cool stuff for your walls like tapestries and whatnot. The tales of the Buffalo Beano Company are legendary.
Billy s Band-Aid was the home for METAL. Yes, we had and still have many fine music stores here but if you played LOUD, you went to Tarpley. They had all the hottest metal looking guitars and giant intimidating flat black speakers. I STILL have a bass I bought at Billy s Band-Aid.
