She was ALWAYS at Madam Wong's Chinatown during the shows. had a perch at the bar and ruled that club with an iron fist. All of us punks were a bit afraid of her. Even in the late 70's she was that "old woman at the bar" that people stared at - until they realized she owned the joint. Some would try and hustle her, but there was no hoodwinking Madam Wong.

What a woman! May she rest in peace with the Ramones entertaining her.
