Former guitarist for the Ghosts and present strummer for the Bowerytones Jahn Xavier posted a New York telephone number on Facebook.
212-982-4052.
I can't believe I remember that phone number, but there it is.
Anybody out there know where that bell rang?
Within two minutes a woman called Dusty recognized the number to CBGB's telephone booth. The legendary punk bar on the Bowery closed October 31, 2006, which was a good run for a club in New York, especially if the owner wasn't paying the rent.
I tried the number.
As expected it was out of service, but only now.
Someone always answered the phone in the heyday of punk.
Hopefully it wasn't Hilly's wife.
