Then put a dollar in the jukebox and listen to some Greenwich Village tunes at the Kettle of Fish. Hear about the infamous 1969 Stonewall Inn riots that marked a turning point in the struggle for gay rights. Have a drink on us at Café Wha?, the iconic hot spot where Dylan, Hendrix and Springsteen cut their teeth.
