Synopsis

IF WE BUILD THE STAGE, CAN WE PLAY? is a four-volume anthology of life stories of artists who forged the New York City rock’n’roll scene. Fifty years (1970-2020) of raucous joy, heartbreaking losses and unmatched resilience. A collection of exclusive narratives (and additional interviews and comments) portraying the lives of young artists facing up to the harsh reality of the City’s bankruptcy, gentrification and terrorist attacks. From the New York Dolls to D Generation to The Strokes; from Max’s Kansas City to Coney Island High to Brownies; an amazing look at the City’s social and cultural changes.

PART ONE - The Early Years: "First, We Have To Learn To Play"

Meet the glam cabaret band, Magic Tramps. When the New York Dolls opened for them at Mercer Arts Center in 1972, no one would have anticipated such a cultural revolution in the City.Legions of New York teenagers, victims of the disastrous economy, bored to death and with very limited music knowledge, started bands. The City was in shambles, the music was its reflection. Welcome to the Coventry, CBGB, Club 82 and Max’s Kansas City!

This is the story of when it all started in New York City and how a few young kids changed the world.
