RIP |
Punkbands reports: Yahoo News/Associated Press
has just released this article with breaking news in the CBGB's battle
to stay open. The news is unfortunate for the club and it's supporters:
As several hundred enthusiastic supporters
rallied to keep CBGB's open, the landlord of the venerable punk club announced
Wednesday that the lease on the 32-year-old landmark will not be renewed.
The Bowery Residents' Committee, landlord
of the building on the Bowery, "believes it is in the best interest of
our clients � the homeless and neediest New Yorkers � to sever this relationship,"
BRC executive director Muzzy Rosenblatt said. The existing lease was to
expire at midnight Wednesday. The statement from Rosenblatt called for
CBGB's to "vacate the premises both voluntarily and expeditiously"[see

received reports from sources close to the OZZFEST 2005 camp that 2nd Stage

band were (or have been) "destroying" things backstage while drunk and
disorderly, and have been considered problematic. [But going by Sharon's
comments this is all fun and games right? No one was hurt. If this turns
out to be true, what's the problem? Maybe they weren't willing to kiss
Osbourne Corp ass? full story for more]- Click

whether or not Rap mogul Marion �Suge' Knight shot himself or was accidentally
shot by one of his entourage.

for the shooting as many witnesses have said they didn't see an assailant
and have not been able to give a physical description. They are currently
waiting on ballistics evidence to determine the origin of the bullet.
