"CBGB is the last rock'n'roll club left," said Van Zandt as he held court over the press conference on the stage, sporting his signature bandana and loud purple shirt. "There's nothing like it left in the world, [a place] where people have come not being famous and left being found by record companies."

i guess, then, that no band has been found by a record company since 1977. no wonder it's been so quiet around here the past few decades!

even Newcombe's annoying antics could be included in the slew of reasons to keep CBGB standing.

i suppose this has something to do with "irony," but what on earth does this sentence mean?
