They aren't still homeless are they? Was Ronnie a Jamaican Rasta or a blonde as well?

May not be early 90's but love watching the film "200 Cigarettes" for a glimpse of 1980's/1980's East Village and Manhattan for that matter.

Can so remember when going across "Avenue A", was supposed to be like taking your life into your hands.

Breaking the night after clubbing and bar hopping at the old Kiev Café for breakfast. Jeremiah's Vanishing New York: 200 Cigarettes

Yes, I remember the Aztec. Between Ave A and First. On Ninth St. It was mad dark and mad cool. No one gave you a hard time even if you were just walking in to use the mens room ( which was covered with graffiti). Other spots popular at that time were: Village Idiot on First, Cherry Tavern on Sixth, The Pyramid I think is still on Ave. A. Blanches on A around the corner from the Aztec, and the one on A and Seventh St.(not 7A). Yeah those were the days!!!
