definitely. i only got to go to the Globe once for the Benjamins final show, but it was absolutely awesome. Mad Planet's trying to make up for it, and they're doing alright, but the same amount of quality shows don't come through.

sucks for CBGB's. But i suppose...real punxxx get evicted! Oi!....err. okay maybe not.

Bottom fucking line, if you don't pay your rent, you deserve to be shut down. Millions of businesses work their asses off to get their shit paid every month, why should this business be an exception? It's fucking America, pay your shit or close.

though it sucks that it was a historic place, i don't understand why people can't get the fact that its business, didn't they owe so much in backed rent (that was eventually threw out) but still do you really think that the owner is gonna keep that place around after that went down.

they didn't not pay their rent, they were unjustely raising the rent to a ridiculous fee

i think the homeless shelter is upstairs now, and they are kicking them out as well, it mentioned that "CBGB is its lone commercial tenant."

It's cause my balls are salty and freash...

and no one cares what you think. Everyone likes Thrice, Strikeanywhere however is a shitty, terrible, god-awful band that should never play another note again. ;)

my advice for you, is to shut the fuck up a little more often.....unless it's a positive comment you want to make. So hang out in thrice threads all day and you'll be fine.

It's history. I'm all for saving history. You can say it's a crappy venue, but there's a long list of bands that can credit that venue for giving them their start.

And the way I've heard the story was they raised the rent and there was a clerical error a few years back. They threw out the back rent and raised it to 19k a month or whatever they're charging them now.

Yeah, their landlords weren't notifying them of the increases, they just expected the money. Or something along those lines. I read part of the decision from the court case but I don't remember the exact details.

And I'm pretty sure a homeless shelter isn't a commercial tenant, but I could be wrong about that.

It's history. I'm all for saving history. You can say it's a crappy venue, but there's a long list of bands that can credit that venue for giving them their start.
Ramones, Talking Heads, Blondie, Devo, The Dead Boys, New York Dolls, just to name a few. But you're right, the list is ridiculous.

So I like movies and enjoy sharring an opinion about them. If it takes a lot of time for you to write a short review I understand......after all, you don't seem very smart. It only takes me a minute however. And I'm at work when I write them. So go back your shiney new Kanye album and have a nice day. :bigsmile:
