The last ever gig at the legendary CBGBs in New York will be performed by Patti Smith, on October 15th, just before the venue closes its doors for the final time.
The venue has been forced to close after there was no agreement made with its landlord over rent levels in the future. Hilly Kristal, the owner of the club, has said he’ll reopen the venue in Vegas, expected to be open in 2008.
