Iconic Punk Brand CBGB to Be Auctioned to the Highest Bidder

• they're called basement shows, and the bug jar in Rochester NY is kinda like cbgb in some ways

• everything is anti punk even punk and this statement and being on the web

• Righy wtf wish there was clubs like this now

• Not the first sale of the name, you know...Hilly personally sold it in 2007 (not his estate or anything as you would imagine).  

• Wow! What happened to integrity? What is wrong with us that we think of a Brand vs. a Place with History? Just open the place up or move it and continue it's fame and "Brand" enjoyment  by actually having bands still play there instead of selling it to represent an empty product that is neither original or entertaining and will most likely end up in a landfill! Walmarting!

• who gives a fuck....

• stop beating a dead fucking horse

• "I didn't sell out, son. I bought in."

• the city in general is fucked. look at beford ave in willyb brooklyn or morgan stop on the L train... the douche is willing to pay the spiked exorbitant rent and kicking the cool shit out further and further. goodbye nyc. you were once brilliant

• At least it's a sister site, and for once not a brother that's pimping. 

• Joey Ramone is weeping? Don't you think he was already weeping in 2006 when "Blitzkrieg Bop" got pimped out to promote Diet Pepsi? The fact that punk artifacts are available to the highest bidder is just a reminder that Punk died years ago. 

• The CBGB "brand" means nothing with the original club closed. RIP.

• Yes you can bet your bottom dollar Joey is weeping,as i think are many many people,this is terrible news !. 

•  GO TO BED ASHTON

• Everything is for sale, including women's bodies. Women's bodies for sale, brought to you by THE VILLAGE VOICE. Prostitution is endorsed by The Village Voice's sister site backpage.

• we liked Max's kansas City better ANYWAY!!

• ''Somwhere in heaven, Joey Ramone is weeping.''NO it's even worse,  Joey is SCREAMING, IT'S FUCKING MURDER.

• Bah, que piada isso aí...nunca estudei patrimônio histórico, mas isso não vai contra todas lógica e justiça história?

• ...isn't this anti-punk?
