  • I was there !!!

  • long video cause they had to have their 15 minutes right?

  • I treasure my memories from when I had the pleasure of working with the gang at City Gardens. I love you all and miss you and the club a lot.  We had the very best club ever and the best people working there.

  • The lead gives thanks to Randy, who did book excellent bands at City Gardens, but this was Frank Nalbone's show, he booked it. Frank was the owner of the club and sometimes booked bands. Randy left City Gardens in 1982 (I think) and didn't come back until a few years later. This may have been during that time. Frank Nalbone, by the way, thought up the idea of the club, from his days in New York City as a college student in the late 70's, it was his vision and his club. Just my .02$

  • @cmsanto57 - this was randy's sow Booked thru FBI / Ian Copeland. British TV crew in the house.

  • @cmsanto57 Not necessarily correct. Frank envisioned a BLUES club. He didn't know what "New Wave" was, as Randy has said in numerous interviews since the 1980's, Frank's response to a new wave Dj was "What's a New Wave DJ" ? Possibly in New Jersey Monthly magazine 1983-1984.. His envisioned blues club did not last, but frequently the club had blues artists perform thru the years.

  • How many sleeveless black shirts can you fit on one stage and how much feathered hair can you fit in one crowd? The answer lies in this video......

  • Holy shit! Wow! thanks for posting this, Nicky Tesco (The Members lead singer) looks a but like an Eddie Izzard character!

  • Great place to see bands for cheap.

  • jesus what happened to Trenton?,,,shit what happened to real nj punk rock and ny punk rock...did every1 just fizzle out....trenton is all black now. a real shithole i might say

  • I used to live right up the street from City Gardens I met Peter Tork there this was a GREAT place to see a concert

  • Saw Big Audio Dynamite there in 1990 on the Megatop Phoenix tour, Super club!

  • Saw this band with Bow Wow Wow in 1982 at The Riverboat President in New Orleans. Good show.

  • Holy Crap - Who was working the PA that night? Keene? Did we pull in a monitor rig that night like for Joan Jett and the Thompson Twins?

    7:00 same blonde gets in almost fight with another chick...

    Anyway.. I miss city gardens.

  • Dont know but its a shame this club closed. It actually became a dance club afterward under a couple of different names. I saw some great bands here. Primus,Ramones,Social Distortion,Flock of Seagulls,Circle Jerks and I'll ways deeply regret missing Nirvana play there.
