L.A. is a pretty cool town......somewhat! For the few weeks that I have been here, I must say that the City of Angels is not bad. It's not perfect, but it ain't as bad as other places I've been to. I didn't really get to see too much yet, but what I did see was interesting. Probably my favorite place that I've been to so far was Venice Beach. Well, that and Redondo Beach too. There's a whole bunch of stuff to do & see there, and it's fun. It's like Greenwich Village but with a beach.
I also like L.A.'s subway system a whole lot better than NYC's. It's cleaner, the trains are more efficient, and some of them look really nice too, like the Hollywood station. Although I do think the upgraded NYC trains are better than any train I've seen in L.A. I haven't hit the clubs or checked out the music scene in L.A. yet, but I'm sure it's poppin'. Besides NY and Nashville, L.A. is the biggest center of music in the country. I'm looking foward to seeing some shows here soon.Cameo and The Time is coming to Hollywood Park next week, and so is Morrissey and David Bowie. I'm not sure If I'll make the Moz show (or Bowie's either ), but I'm definitely cheking out the funk legends though. Also, I wanna check out the clubs here too. I read I the Weekly that they have a lot of themed clubs like 70's night or 90's night. But you probably already know which clubs I'd like to attend, and yes, they do have quite a few 80's clubs here too. I will definitely check that out, because you know how I feel about the 80's. But pretty soon I'll be going back home to New York. I'm looking forward to that, but I would like to make the most of the rest of my time here in L.A.

I tried living in Venice Beach for a while until some dude on my street got shot by his enemies who wanted to take over the sales of dope on that street. That's when I had a Uhaul out front the next day and on it's way back down to the much safer Orange County where you can walk your dog around the block without any hassles. The clubs are happenin thats for shizzle!!!! I dig downtown for the garment district/night life etc. west la and hollyweird have their ups and downs but no matter what I love LA! (to visit not live in) Once the big one hits (predicted earthquake way over due) then I think the rebuilding of LA will be underway... To Sir, with Love | |

Thanks, PEJ. That's good to know.

LA IS FUCKING COOL!!!!
I MISS IT SOOOO MUCH AND CAN'T WAIT TO GET BACK. ESPECIALLY SINCE THE FORECAST IN DENVER IS FOR 18" SNOW BY THE WEEKEND. I'd love to be hanging at Matador Beach right now. http://elmadartista.tumblr.com/ http://twitter.com/madartista | |
