    Support the scene? Sure. But let's be honest. There are a lot of really bad bands in New York City, playing out night after night in dingy dives to empty rooms. This is a homage to those unsung heroes of the New York City underground - the bad New York bands.
    CD: Unreleased   Label: Jersey Beat records
    Credits: Music and lyrics by Jim Testa Harmonica solo by Andy Gesner

    Story Behind the Song
    Recorded at Melody Lanes Studios in Manhattan in two takes. Produced by Tris McCall, with drum programming and keyboards by Tris McCall, rhythm guitar and vocals by Jim Testa, and harmonica by Andy Gesner.

    Lyrics
    Baggott Inn, Tuesday nights...
    Nobody's there, no surprise...
    We can always find you at the same old haunts
    You get all the gigs that nobody else wants

    'Cause you're a bad New York band
    and nobody likes you
    You won't go away, but then again you don't have to
    And maybe you have no talent or taste
    But in Manhattan there's always a place
    for another bad New York band...
