Bar shopping in New York City

  1. A

    Trash & Vaudeville

    St Marks Place is chock-full of tattoo parlors, cheap eateries and classic ‘New York Fuckin’ City’ T-shirt shops that haven’t changed much at all since the 1980s. Poke your head into Trash & Vaudeville, a landmark goth-and-punk shop where a pre-John Yoko Ono staged happenings in the 1960s. Across the street, the modern mall-strip was once the site of the Dom, and later, the Electric Circus, where Andy Warhol staged his Exploding Plastic Inevitable multimedia shows in 1966, with the house band Velvet Underground providing the live soundtrack.
