CBGB is in the midst of a legal battle with landlord the Bowery Residents Committee (BRC) to renew their lease–a battle that could result in the closing of the legendary New York club. CBGB disputes the BRC’s claims that back rent money is owned. Young punk bands as well as veterans Elvis Costello, David Byrne, and Steven Van Zandt have joined the fight to keep the club open at its current location.http://www.billboard.com/bb/daily/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1000998923
