Are they still around? They must be at least 55-60 by now, didn't the original guitarist OD? I saw them at CBGBs in the 70s and they were about as rad as the Stooges! HOT!
the dolls didnt play cbgbs til 2006

Went to see The Dolls at the Thekla Club in Bristol, it was the first time I've seen them and they were incredible. I wish I'd gone to see them again at Hyde Park instead of Beck now because I thought he was a bit crap.
Anyway Thekla is a great venue on a boat in Bristol which holds about 300 people, managed to get right at the front directly in front of Steve Conte, so close he almost smacked me in the face with his guitar a few times. Between songs sylvain dedicated a song to Johnny Thunders but I've forgotten which one now, David helped Sylvain get some snot out of his nose (I know they are close but really!) and before playing 'Trash' Sylvain and David discussed English coffee, they didn't seem too impressed. It was a great sweaty gig the crowd were really up for it and the band appeared to be having loads of fun all in all great gig.
Setlist was this
and some photos...
the coifee song is always Trash. & the Thunders tribute is Johnny's song You Can't Put Your Arms Around A Memory (13 on your setlist). Brilliant aren't they! Excellent pics btw!
