Join Chris Stamey, Julia Gorton, Chris Frantz, Tina Weymouth, Richard Lloyd, David Fricke as they share stories of what made CBGB one of the most influential venues in music history.
Was it the sizzle or the steak—the fashions or the music, the images or the sounds—that made a tiny dive bar’s influence expand and persist in such an out sized way, even today? Was the abrupt shift in rock music styles in the late seventies and early eighties merely an idea whose time had come? Or was it, instead, individual, unique creative efforts—by members of the likes of Television, Talking Heads, Patti Smith, and the Ramones—that made all the difference?
Ah yes there are many other stories to tell. I have mine ... what is yours???
