ROCK STAR gallery — Attraction in Phoenix

For ten years our family has spent the month of February in Scottsdale. Every year we visit Rockstar Gallery. When I decided to begin collecting this was the place I decided would be where I purchase items to start and grow my collection. That journey began six years ago with my first purchase. When deciding on what to buy I corresponded with Michael and Scott via email and by phone until we selected the item. This year on our annual visit to RSG I stopped in to say hello to Scott and he introduced me to Michael. Although we had only spoken by phone or communicated by email Michael greeted me as if I was a long time friend. He remembered the items I purchased in the past and took time to talk to me about what I may be looking for down the road. With me was my wife, my son and his wife. After we visited for quite a while Michael took us into another part of the gallery filled with some of his personal treasures. There he spent time with all of us exchanging stories about some incredible personal experiences. It was an unexpected and thoroughly enjoyable time. Michael, his wife and Scott are people who make you feel like old friends rather that clients. I can’t thank Michael enough for taking so much time with us and for sharing some incredible personal stories. Now , where the rubber meets the road. At RSG you never feel the sales pressure. You are allowed the freedom to look around and decide, ask as many questions and get real fact based advice. The quality of whatever you decide to buy is exceptional from the item to the framing. Michael is now working with me on my sixth purchase and I am confident he will find me another outstanding item. Thanks Michael for all you do to help your customers. It’s that touch that keeps me coming back. It was great to finally meet you face to face. Best to you and Scott in the years to...

I was super excited to go into this store because my dad was super into a ton of rock arists and bands as a teenager and used to tell me cool stories about rock music and it's history. My fiance also happens to be a huge fan of Jimi Hendrix so I went in looking for something to get him. I went in with a friend of mine and we met the owner who seemed friendly enough and started talking with us about where were from, our ages, and today's music. I was open to hear him out with respect and quickly the conversation became about the world today and how its changed from the 60-80s. Which i totally get. I was open to hearing his opinion because he seemed like a dude my dad would really get along with. What I don't understand was the owner asking us if we've been "woke" and said we were brainwashed. He started talking about how he's a millionaire and how great capitalism is and how the world is never going to be equal and fair so we shouldn't expect other wise. He then started to belittle my friend for her wokeness and said he would "light a candle for us". It was really disappointing because I really would have loved to talk music with him but instead it quickly became a lecture about my generation and how wrong the world is nowadays and apparently it's not our fault since we've been "brainwashed". I thought it was a really cool store and I would have happily brought my family and fiance to see it just to admire all the music but he made me friend so upset and uncomfortable she kept asking me to leave. And when I told him "I'll see you around" his reply was "I bet you wont". Not a cool way to talk to potential customers especially someone with an appreciation of music like my family and I. Not cool behavior especially from an older man to...

If you love rock memorabilia with legit authentication and full provenance, make your way to the Rock Star Gallery at Kierland Commons. The staffers here know their stuff. These aren’t recent hires who can’t answer questions — they’re the owners/family members who have built the various collections from the ground up, and what you see on the walls is a fraction of what’s available by chatting with them or visiting their website. The eclectic gathering has something for everybody, with items from Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Beatles, and Grateful Dead to James Taylor, Elvis, Buddy Holly, and more. Forget those soulless collectible shops you run across in Vegas and elsewhere — Rock Star Gallery is the place to hear the stories behind the treasures and line your walls with...
