Synopsis :

The Mudd Cub was a loud, dirty dream with a radical aesthetic born of punk, and the celebrityèinfused performance art and East Village art scene. There was nothing like it before or since, and author Richard Boch, who was its doorman during much of its four and a half year run, saw and experiences much of it.
