Hi,

I need some help identifying a font from a website.

The font I need to identify is in the website header:

http://anchorbmx.com.au/home/templates/anchorbmx/images/header.gif

I’ve also attached a sample.

Thanks for your help! :)

One of the things I’ll regret for the rest of my life is that I didn’t go there when I had the chance (being in NYC) before it was closed.

By the way, that’s the Ramones hanging out there.
Does anyone know what OMFUG stands for?

Thank you! :)

(Wikipedia says: ’The full name is CBGB & OMFUG which stands for “Country Bluegrass Blues and Other Music For Uplifting Gormandizers”. Gormandizer usually means a ravenous eater of food, but according to Kristal here it means “a voracious eater of ... music”.’)

I always thought the name was funny because I never saw any country or bluegrass music there, usually punk, ska, rockabilly, something much harder and edgier.

I’ll never forget the bathrooms.
