Union Square Rock n’ Punk Music Tour

Learn how in the mid-1960s American pop culture was forever changed

In the mid-1960s, American pop culture was about to change forever and the center of it was Max’s Kansas City on Park Avenue South just off Union Square. Andy Warhol once said, “Max’s Kansas City is where Pop Art and Pop Life came together.”

See where Iggy Pop cut himself on stage; where the Velvet Underground recorded a live album; where Andy Warhol was shot; where Debbie Harry was a waitress and where the cover for London Calling by the Clash was shot.
