Those were the days, my friend ... we thought they'd never end.

I used to love 688, great place, one of my favorite shows was a New York Punk band named DNA (not to be confused with a crappy band by the same name)
Simon, did you go to the Ultravox concert at the agora ballroom (early eighties?) if you did and remember the fight on the main floor that was me beating the crap out of some jock who threw a drink on my then gf
instead of stopping the fight, the stage crew just pointed a big spotlight on us.
good times
