kannon21 Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 If, as Lewis Mumford wrote, cities were created as "a means of bringing heaven down to earth" and "a symbol of the possible," New York is the epitome of those dreams. No other city's skyline thrusts so aggressively toward the heavens, pulling down the clouds like a monarch shrugging into a cloak. No other city's history so embodies the idea of innovation and achievement in such a dazzling range of human endeavors. "There is no place like it, no place with an atom of its glory, pride and exultancy," novelist Thomas Wolfe rhapsodized in 1935. "It lays its hand upon a man's bowels; he grows drunk with ecstasy; he grows young and full of glory, he feels that he can never die." -- Time, 1990 (and that was about the decline of NY before Guliani cleaned the shit up)No point knocking NYC... it is a waste of your time.Notice this was said in 1935. That's over 70 years for which New York to grow and evolve (or in this case, devolve) into the shameless city it is today. Basically, it's just a giant billboard that whores itself out left, right and center. Sure, there are many historical monuments there that they should be proud of and I'm sure there are parts that are decent. But, overall, I find NYC to be a giant shithole. Nowhere near the greatest city in the world. ...... .............. .......right.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lame ass security Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Most of the rest of the world views the United States through New York City. That's the simple truth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ironicninja Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Lots of media is based in NYC, so this is good to drum up publicity. Vegas has it going on too, but Axl was competing with all the other stuff that happens in Vegas on New Years Eve.Also New York is the scene of Axl's last triumph, a sold out MSG gig.

GunnerOne 84 Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 I am so tired of this I love NYC, it's the greatest city in the world bullshit. NYC is a dirty, smelly, shithole of a place, full of ignorant, up-their-own-ass people that think they are better because they live there. Fuck them.
