Also New York is the scene of Axl's last triumph, a sold out MSG gig.
It's also where GNR first really made it big (the Ritz show)...

Rathole town, asshole people.
Damn straight, and proud of it.

Knock the US yes, but remember, New York City voted for Kerry by a rather large margin
I don't think New York gives a shit about Bush or Kerry or America. It leads the world on its own, isolated from the country it found itself in.

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.

It's because it is the greatest city in the world.
Simple question, simple answer. Almost anyone who has been will agree.

any New Yorkers here with tips on the best way in to the city from LaGuardia?
Take a cab. You'll get there in around 15 minutes or so. GNR are going to come out way late anyway so as long as your flight lands, you'll make the show. LGA closes at midnight - after that flights land at JFK.

This song is fucking horrible. It sounds like something Bon Jovi would record - na na naaaa crap. If it gets released to radio I expect to hear it being belted out on American Idol right after. Hands down the worst song that may be prized with the GNR name.
