Talk:Trash and Vaudeville

Latest comment: 7 years ago by Centerone in topic TRIPP?

My Chemical Romance was not from the 70s or 80s. Something needs to be changed in that statement.

  • I agree... I'll go ahead and just take that out for lack of a better idea. Remember to sign your posts! Wobblies 01:39, 9 June 2007 (UTC)Reply


Trash and Vaudeville was opened by Ray ( I do not know his last name), a former employee of LIMBO boutique which had been open for many years at 4 St. Marks. LIMBO was started by Martin Freedman in Brighton Beach around 1960. The founder of the former Canal Jeans Company, Ira Russack, visited the Brighton Beach Store while still in high school, and became friendly with Mr. Freedman. The building at 4 St. Marks is now a landmark (see a history at http://www.nyc.gov/html/lpc/downloads/pdf/reports/hamiltonholly.pdf). I am not sure of the dates in the article, but T&V was not open in that spot as early as the article says. Irvneal (talk) 19:33, 25 March 2008 (UTC) Irvneal (talk) 17:24, 19 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Relevant info edit

I don't see why Hoobastank is important enough to include on this page. There are many other notable bands who are more relevant to Trash who have not been included for the sake of being concise. Additonally, I am updating the information about Trash's location since it is moving from St Marks to Avenue A. This is notable information in both East Village history and punk rock history....Please take a look and edit what seems too biased. Wendigo.zlato (talk) 00:36, 29 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Description edit

The description is out of date. Also, I can't find a reliable source to confirm the clothing described. We could instead describe the subcultures who shop at the store? I don't know. It's late. This is good enough for now...Wendigo.zlato (talk) 01:37, 29 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

TRIPP? edit

The article currently states: "They are the largest retail store stocked with Tripp NYC clothing, a brand which mirrors the DIY modifications of 80's underground musicians." Uhmmm this obviously needs to be expanded / elaborated on. As far as I know, I thought Tripp NYC clothing was by the same folks that ran/run T&V. Centerone (talk) 19:55, 2 November 2016 (UTC)Reply
