Description

Long-shuttered underground rock venue CBGB lives on in other iterations—including this festival that brings out the big guns with headliners Iggy Pop and Jack White. Other performers include punk legends Sex Pistols (minus one John Lydon), Marky Ramone and Melvins; 1980s-era darlings like Murphy’s Law and Cro-Mags; and current punk bands Lambrini Girls, Destroy Boys and The Linda Lindas. The one-day festival features more than 20 acts across three stages.
