Per Kimberley and Robyn's accounts of Soft Boys history, they played the Mudd Club; Kimberley listed it as Sept 7 in his Soft Boys scrapbook.

Photo shows The Soft Boys, along with Richard Bishop (Armageddon Records founder), Howie Gilbert (road manager) and Pat Collier (producer) in NYC.

Richard Bishop formed the now highly-collectable Armageddon label just so he could release our next record. Out of the eye of the mainstream music business, we were developing our own 'niche market' and the clubs began to fill up again. Richard's enthusiasm got us to New York, even. We played Maxwell's in Hoboken twice in 10 days and at hipster perches like Danceteria and The Mudd Club, with its stage front that rolled up like a garage door. Another foundation stone was laid for the future; I've since met more people claiming to have attended those first Soft Boys US shows than could possibly have seen us - the audiences weren't that big.
