I was shocked and saddened to learn, this morning, of the passing of bona fide New York City Punk legend, Howie Pyro (above, as captured by Manel Armengol). There was certainly nobody cooler, but he was also just a genuinely nice, funny and inclusive guy. He actually left a couple of comments on this blog, over the years.
Rest In Peace, sir.
Here he is on bass detail with DGeneration in 1994 at Irving Plaza.
Turn it up and pour one out.

I was good friends with Howie back in the 80s, when he was in Freaks. Very good guy. NYC treasure, for sure. Goodnight & RIP, pal.
