CBGB Page #3
Excuse me. I have to open up.
He's dead.
I've been watching him for you, Hilly.
- Has anybody informed the police?
- Nah.
Cops don't care too much
about dead guys in the Bowery.
Where'd he come from?
Upstairs.
Somebody answer that!
Hey, answer the phone already!
There's a dead body outside.
Do you wanna come see if
it's one of your guests?
Not particularly.
That guy stabbed in the shower
here last month... Big mess.
Had to call the cops three
times. Pain in my ass.
What? You want a room?
- What's goin' on, Stan?
- I'm arresting this man...
under suspicion of murder.
- Whose suspicion?
- Look, Kristal...
let me do my job, okay?
What about the body?
Welcome to CBGB's, gentlemen.
Compliments of the house.
And who the hell are you?
Hilly Kristal.
Police took a guy for murder today.
- Yeah, we heard.
- He didn't do it.
Plays the violin. We call him "Idaho. "
- Yeah, he's a little guy.
- Yeah, he's a junkie.
I'd like to help him, but I
need some guidance on that.
What do we get out of it?
I'm your neighbor.
Got lots of neighbors.
You treat me right...
I'll treat you right.
I'll make a call.
Merv...
another round of beers...
for our neighbors here.
- Hey, Hilly.
- Hello, Idaho.
Jail's not so bad.
At least they got heat.
Why did you come?
Because you needed me.
It's hard bein' a man
Livin' in a garbage pail
- You read much?
- I'm a junkie, Hilly.
Do I look like I read
f***ing books to you?
I can't stand it anymore, more
Small Is Beautiful:
A Study of Economics
as if People Mattered.
Just came out.
Talks about how economics has become...
the dominant ideological
force in society.
How we need to rethink that...
with art, music...
- You're out of gas.
- It's only a few more blocks.
They're livin' out in the hall
And I can't stand it anymore
You got vodka?
I can't stand it anymore, more
I can't stand it anymore, more
I can't stand it anymore, more
back, it'd be all right
I remember
How the darkness doubled
I recall
Lightning struck itself
I was listening
- Listening to the rain
- Oh, sh*t.
Whoa!
It's no good.
Damn showers!
This place is cool, man.
Hey! Hey! 2.50!
Jesus Christ!
You're blocking the drain.
- Good working with you.
- Yeah.
- Uh, I'll see you tomorrow?
- Yes.
Don't look now Don't
heed the warning
Seven dollars? How am I
supposed to live on this?
Hey, man, art sucks.
Isn't it about time?
Not a bad night.
Nearly electrocuted a guy.
Doubled the attendance.
Fire, flood, familiar famine
The jungle so far away
Blood baked into blackened soil
How many tons a day?
