CBGB

The Home of Underground Rock...... 1973-2006

About Me

CBGB closed at 315 Bowery on Sunday October 15th, 2006.
This MYSPACE page was originally created as the club's official page.
Now it is a continuing tribute to the greatest rock n' roll club that ever was.

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.
...and yes, this MYSPACE page is maintained by former CBGB staff.
