Showed this on the recent Jacob Brackman interview episode, as he scripted this picture, which was intended as Robert Stigwood's "punk" picture. The scene is amazing, as it shows what the South side of 42nd St. looked like in 1980 from one corner to the other. A great time capsule.

A song you'll never forget: "punk" anthem from "Times Square"
I plan on uploading another clip from my interview with Jacob Brackman, but had to get this weird item uploaded, a scene from Times Squarethe film he scripted which wound being other than what was intended (both Brackman and director Allan Moyle wound up being removed from the pic before it was released, and it is a mess). This song is nearly impossible to get outta your head, perhaps because it's so oddly un-p.c., pretty dumb, and so simple you can hum it. That should make it a punk anthem along the lines of any Ramones tune, but instead it's just... sorta crazy. Enjoy.
