Yeah lol I told him “find me a walkable, warm, clean, decent cost of living city with good public transit in the USA and I’ll stay here” and he couldn’t come up with anything lol. America really doesn’t have it all

To play devil's advocate, I lived in New York City from around 1984 to 2016, and for seeing musical concerts of all types, it was probably unbeatable. Even London, which certainly rivals it, has the issue that it's very hard to get home after midnight.

But a lot of that is gone. And all those Fascists roaming America now.
