As previously announced on www.uncut.co.uk, the famous CBGBs will close this weekend, after a long conflict with the venue’s landlords, who wanted to make more rent from the property.

CBGBs will be reopening in Las Vegas in 2008.

As previously reported, Patti Smith will play the final gig at the New York venue on Sunday night.
