CBGB The Book | by David Byrne, Hilly Kristal

Though "CBGB and OMFUG : Thirty Years from the Home of Underground Rock" doesn't actually come out until July 1st, I've already seen it on the shelf at both Barnes & Noble and Virgin. It's full of really great CBGB photos, old and new. Everyone from the Ramones to Har Mar Superstar are featured inside. There's an afterward written by David Byrne and an intro by owner Hilly Kristal.
