I had just read some of the stories about the trouble at CBGB and we were in the neighborhood, so I took Logan by so he could see the legend– just in case they don't sort things out. It would be a real loss to the cultural history of New York if they were to close. I remember many nights there in '85 and '86. The Bowery was pretty scary then. At least it was to my 18-year-old self. I remember leaving CBGB at 3 or 4 a.m. and hightailing it all the way to Washington Square Park. Which was only slightly safer. Now there are new high-rise condos going up all around CBGB. I guess it's inevitable. -Duke The Carters on the tourist trail:
