Couldn't resist the opportunity to post this information (thanks Findley). It seems that the ever-famous club CBGB's on the Bowery in NYC could be closing it's doors. There is a company that owns the buildings that house the club and they don't want to renew the clubs lease for various reasons.What a tragedy it would be for CBGB's to have to close their doors after being "the home of underground rock" for over 30 years! If it wasn't for CBGB's The Ramones, Blondie, The Talking Heads, Television, Patti Smith or The Velvet Underground would have never made it. Check out the web site, sign the petition.

Good for you! I'm going to NYC tomorrow...we've decided to chain ourselves to the nearest puked/pee'd on parking meter in protest! I'll take pics!
Lived in PA and went to NYC alot, but Never to CBGB, sounds like a very cool place! I'll make sure to sign the petition!
Thanks Diane...'tis a cool place...not all glitz and glam...actually, you probably should watch where you walk in the place...never know what may be on the floor!
