We lived in new orleans.. the media sucks alot of peoples houses are STILL fucked up, alot of abandoned houses because people didn't have the money to fix them or they just didn't care.. or they died.. or they are still living in their fucked up houses if not on the streets.
Why not open a gambling venue there so that the same markets who bet on themselves can now bet on something outside themselves for a change.Instead of every second person out to see how much they can get out of a canvas,or photo- why not pump it into a poker machine to test fortune and fate;)?That's what sydney and Melbournes become!
Oh and I wouldn't give two stuffs save for getting the same CBGB t-shirt in an op-shop, that serves as a talisman if you want to hit the paint/STRINGS for a punt.
I love this man what would my life be without him. Would i have A Debbie in my heart, The Ramones buzzing in my ears. He helped create and support the greatest musical scene of my generation God bless him.
Mr. Rosenblatt the guy who closed down this place..... is a grimy, scheming little penny pincher that just closed down an American institution just cause he wants to make money. People in this world are fucked up.
I'm not too familiar w/the club but I know when it was closing down, they supposedly had all these "big stars" from The Sopranos and crap, all with money and what happened, no donations what so ever. If I was a celebrity and trying to keep it open, I would've left a HUGE donation. Especially if I was on 1 of the biggest shows on TV. Shame to all those so-called celebrities just trying to buy a few minutes of tv time to show their face.
i think some one with some bucks should go buy back cbgbs and rock out i mean shit some one gots the money to make more money right or are we just some dum punks that don't give a shit so go breed some apathy
This video shouldn't exist. CBGB's will never die. Ever. As I remember correctly, punk rock has been known t be quite a phoenix. It "died" in the early 80s but was reborn in the mid 90s when grunge started dying out. Theres hope. CBGB's belongs in New York. Nowhere else. Long live CBGB's
Does anybody remember rage of angels or children's playground?.
