In a feeble attempt to combat my constant homesickness, I compile tales of New York City rock & roll landmarks, most of 'em long gone. Moronic musings on various other enthusiasms are also thrown in for good measure.
10/19/67 issue. A while back, the former Scene denizens on the Steve Paul's Scene Facebook group reminisced about the Greasy Spoon...but I'm afraid that thread was a bit too far back for me to find at the moment. It's a shame the archives to these Facebook groups aren't as well-organized and accessible as, say, the old Yahoo Groups.
Scene Google Image search and Google search. (There are also quite a few pics at Getty Images, not only for the Scene, but also the Cafe au Go Go and the Village Theater, among other places. I usually get plentiful returns when I use the search terms "Michael Ochs New York" plus a given year.)
Walking in New York--includes footage of the Motions at the Scene.
UPDATE 5/8/2013: Jeremiah's VNY reports that 301 W. 46th Street is slated for demolition. Also, learn a bit about the Scene's predecessor, the Cave of the Fallen Angels, at Gotham Lost & Found.
