When I was a kid growing up and heavy metal was popular I gravitated to the punk scene bands like Black Flag, the Ramones, The Clash, Joan Jett and other bands that made their way to the top by frequenting the famous CBGB’s in NY. An icon for over 30 years CBGB’s will be nothing but a memory Sunday after they close the doors one final time.
Yahoo News:After Sunday, memories are all that will remain when the cramped club with its capacity of barely 300 people goes out of business after 33 years. Although its boom years are long gone, CBGB’s remained a Manhattan music scene fixture: part museum, part barroom, home to more than a few rock and roll ghosts.
