About me: I was the birth place of punk. I was where rock n roll belongs... a small dirty, beer soaked, dark pit of a club with the best stage sound in the city. My walls were held together by years of layers of flyers and stickers. My uneven wood floors were caked with dried up booze, blood, sweat, and who knows what else.
CBGB closed at 315 Bowery on Sunday October 15th, 2006. As a long time member of the CBGB staff, Hilly Kristal allowed me to run this page as the club's official page. Now with the club closed, it is a continuing tribute to the greatest rock n' roll club that ever was.
I welcome any feedback and encourage anyone with their own CBGB story to share to do so.
