What do CBGB and OMFUG stand for?
Search: omfug
Why: In the trailer for Bandslam, the kids stand outside it... and then apparently go inside, according to this clip:
Answer: CBGB = Country, Blue Grass, and Blues
OMFUG = Other Music For Uplifting Gormandizers. A gormandizer is someone who devours ravenously - food, or in this case, music.

The More You Know: The club, at Bowery and Bleecker, was founded by Hilly Kristal in 1973. Patti Smith performed the final concert in 2006.
