The Oklahoma Tax Commission on Monday shut down the landmark Oklahoma City restaurant and music venue VZD’s, which has struggled over the past several years due to declining profits.

Over the course of its 38-year history, VZD’s has hosted musical acts as diverse as The Red Hot Chili Peppers to Dixie Chicks. Situated in a historic storefront once occupied by the Veazey’s Drug Co. chain at 4200 N Western, the restaurant and club was a longtime anchor of the Western Avenue shopping district.

“I’m currently working with others to pick up the torch and carry on the tradition of VZD’s, just as I did 24 years ago. It has a loyal staff of great employees and is a unique institution worth continuing,” owner Chad Bleakley, who has owned VZD’s for most of its history, said in a statement.

The doors of the club and restaurant were locked and the lights were off Monday afternoon. A closure notice printed on red paper from the Oklahoma Tax Commission was posted on the door.
