Punk & the beginnings of Rap /Hip Hop showed that if you couldn't go to the high priced concerts, clubs, discos, etc, you pretty much could have your own. You didn't have to depend on them for your entertainment, it symbolized the American spirit of creativity & ingenuity that is sorely lacking these days.

I was so damn lucky to have been there. The beginning of 77 I was spending my weekends at The Gallery with my gay friends, by the end of 77 I was going to cbgbs and Max's Kansas City a few times a week. I remember the fear from Son of Sam was so intense I dyed my brown hair red. Watching this series is like a time machine, I see so many people I knew (RIP Frankie Knuckles and so many others 😢) in both the discos and cbgbs and as usual when I'm watching a punk documentary, I see myself in the audience. I wouldn't trade those days for anything.

One good thing that came out of those abandoned buildings in the bronx is that after the buildings fell down mother nature will take over and beautiful foliage of green will grow where ugly buildings of concrete once stood. All of a sudden due to every one moving out the once busy drug infected neighborhood is now an oasis of nature and quiet , and i remember as a kid playing in the green foliage i loved it.

I remember it as a very challenging place, and often pretty scary. There was decayed infrastructure, no basic services. I remember hearing the sound of constant gunfire and seeing blood on the sidewalks in the mornings, and sometimes bodies and body parts. When they dug up First Avenue, all they did was put a plank over that huge ditch! It was so dangerous. And buggy. I had a blast as an artist there. And I studied there. It was ... an education!

I've lived in Manhattan since my birth in 1996. I was born into a city in the process of emerging from this time period. Now I reminisce about a time I never lived, watching videos about the streets that I know, when the real character of their soul has completely transformed. It's like looking at old photos of myself, I recognize the familiar and remember that time but at the same time I feel I'm looking a different person.

I knew Lloyd and Thunders, not well, but I sure have some funny stories. I only met RH once that I recall, on East Tenth street. I gave him a copy of my zine and he smiled. He smelled as though he hadn't bathed recently but he certainly didn't mind the greeting. Nice memories.

When people visit NY now, they expect to see a little bit of the Koolness left there from before.. It's gone because the majority populations of African Americans and Puerto Ricans are not dominant like before and are replaced by brand new immigrants... When I say that NY now is completely different than the 80's - mid 90's, I wish I could put it in 20 feet letters !!!! The generations of Italian people in NY also contributed to the Koolness of NY back then too, along with the other whites there and it created a very interesting city with multiple layers and types of neighborhoods back then

It was actually horrible & scary but ya just had to accept that & pitch in to help fix it! From Union Square to the LES, then the UES, after 2 years of Manhattan I went to Windsor Terrace, Brooklyn for 15 years & way preferred that. F train, Prospect Park, was just better for me as "home" though less convenient, as my nabe was quiet & residential. The gritty, grungy aspects of NYC seldom bothered me -- the more "polished" areas were often lovely but "not my thing."

We did have some really bad years there in that interval, but after I left for Europe in '94 it was good to visit again for 8 days in '98 and see such an upbeat city! Of course, it had changed dramatically in only 4 years -- it's said "NY changes every five years." When I visited briefly in '10, I was often giggling -- I did/did not know it. It was trippy! There were my old friends, a few things were about the same -- but it wasn't the same! Subways had different names ...

Don't get me wrong, at first I was darn tickled w the UES. I lived, worked & went to school there for a time & that was fine! It just wasn"t "alive" the way so many other parts of the city were. As much as I appreciated obvious "quality of life" advantages (and the rough edges around the UES were kinda scary, remember?) I quickly felt boxed up there, in need of space, trees, or at least "things on the edge." You know, I never loved Central Park. Liked a LOT, yes!

Rock musicians know that rock music came from black people so many rock musicians especially British musicians are heavily influenced by that. They were influenced by blues in the 60's and 70's disco and hip-hop, house, techno in the 80's and beyond. In this era most music has a punk or disco influence somewhere and with you tube everything in every era is immediately available and easily mixed so I can understand why this generation would have trouble understanding the angry divide back then

Disco people usually liked rock but usually animosity the other way not just punk rock fans but fans of most rock genres. We thought of disco fans as stuck up and the music itself boring and repetitive. Rock musicians were more split and when a rock act made a disco or disco influenced song we thought of them as sell outs or traitors.
