CBGBs: OMFUG R.I.P

The on going saga between CBGBs' ( the legendary downtown New York City venue) and its landlord, the Bowery Residents' Committee, is finally over - well, almost. Owner, Hilly Kristal, has reached an agreement with the BRC to keep the club's doors open through to October 31st 2006, when it will finally be forced to move. I had the great honor of visiting this punk rock landmark on one of my trips to NYC and let me tell you, it's just as skanky as it looks.
