1978ref. 151059New York: CBGB's 1978. Vintage CBGB'S 2nd Avenue Theater four-page program Grand Opening Concert Bill the only concert bill printed for the short-lived club for late December 1978 announcing its Tuesday night opening with Talking Heads and Tuff Darts on December 27 The Dictators and Dead Boys on December 28 and Richard Hell and the Voidoids with Patti Smith December 29-31. These acts would be the theater's last perfomances. Included in the program are bios for headlining acts Talking Heads Dead Boys and Richard Hell and the Voidoids as well as listing of CBGB'S Bowery schedule for December 27th through December 31st. CBGB'S owner Hilly Kristal opened CBGB'S 2nd Avenue Theater in late 1977 in the old Anderson Theatre at 66 2nd Avenue. The venue was designed to accommodate the growing crowds bands like Talking Heads the Patti Smith Group and Richard Hell and the Voidoids were attracting to the small Bowery club. With a capacity of just over 1700 seats massive compared to the 350-person capacity of CBGB'S it opened on Tuesday December 27th with Talking Heads headlining and Tuff Darts as the opener. Due to the decrepit state of the theater the cost of bringing the theater up to code even with backing from the likes of Sire records president Seymour Stein were too great. Kristal nearly went bankrupt trying to make a go of it ultimately closing the theater in early 1979. The last performance at the venue was New Year's Eve 1978 featuring The Patti Smith Group Richard Hell and the Voidoids the Erasers and Mars. 5.5 x 8 inches Two page bi-Fold. Near Fine.

White illustrated boards with black lettering. 245pp. Corners gently bumped' horizontal indentation running from fore edge halfway to spine on front board; else clean and sound; Very Good . Clean unclipped dust jacket also holds the same indentation mark to front; trace edge wear besides; Near Fine. Exhaustive compendium of previously uncollected writing from punk musician poet and visual artist Richard Hell inscribed to title page in red ink to former bandmate collaborator and best friend Tom Verlaine: "Thank you Tom / hope all's well / yrs / Hell / October 2001". Hell and Verlaine met as high school students Richard Meyers and Tom Miller in Delaware and developed their identities alongside and against each other -- running away to New York City and forming the pivotal punk band Television together before their well-documented falling out in the mid-1970s. It wasn't until decades later when both men had settled into quieter and more individuated lives of less-public creative production that they resumed any sense of rapport. Hell related to this bookseller that he would see Verlaine browsing the dollar racks outside Manhattan's Strand Bookstore occasionally presenting him with his latest book as their tensions thawed. Hot and Cold contains much content from their time of collaboration with poems from their jointly-created alter ego "Theresa Stern" as well as essays and photos regarding the Television/CBGB's days. powerHouse Books hardcover
