Marky Ramone of the Ramones and Debbie Harry of Blondie attend a screening of Burning Down the House, a documentary on CBGB's heyday, at the 2009 Tribeca Film Festival. In 1974, on April 14, in the audience of Television's third gig were Patti Smith and Lenny Kaye, whose Patti Smith Group debuted at CBGB on February 14, 1975.

The film combines archival footage and photographs with contemporary interviews to re-construct the rich history of the club and its evolution as one of the pre. Miere venues in the world of rock. Pioneers like Television, The Ramones, Blondie and Talking Heads, and Patti Smith comprised a fledging scene that would later give rise to the music phenomena know as ‘punk’ and ‘new wave’ making CB’s home sweet home for next generation The Police, Guns-n-Roses and Beastie Boys, to name only a few. These iconic performances are punctuated with poignant scenes of an ailing Hilly (who died in 2007) and a team of dedicated staff members advocates fighting to keep CB’s alive. By 2001 Hilly had accumulated $300,000 in back rent and was facing eviction. He managed to catch up with the bulk of his debt only to be confronted with continued rent increases as multi-million dollar condos transformed the Bowery.
