CBGB's in the 80s
It was great to play at CBGB's in the mid-80s. They had a decent sound system and we always had a good time at the gigs. Owner Hilly Kristal liked the band. He started us out on weeknights and then moved us up to the coveted headliner spots. Here are some of the old ads from that time. (It's kind of interesting now to see a snapshot of the bands that were playing downtown NYC in those days. Our bands are ones circled in red.)
