One thing's for sure, there is a huge trend of 'sameness' in the area, without much tolerance for personal differences. Maybe that's why there are so many musicians, they need an outlet for the anger I try hard to stay positive but there is a really harsh edge to people up here a lot of the time.

Then you don't participate!

Go watch an open mic situation!
