Well, there goes my misspent youth. I never met Hilly but I did stand near him a few times, going through the cbgb site (cbgb.com) I was surprised to see youthful pictures of, he looked old by the time I started hanging out around 1991, painting and showing at marsbar (marz bar?) around the corner though I was in a show at cbgb's 313 once, and went to shows plenty.
Picture I chose is from the Dictators files and their guitarist sitting on an old Volvo 122, chosen because I had one right around then. Apparently the whole are has been torn down and redon - was the bowery after all. Sort of amazing, they will gentrify anything.
