1) Last call at 4am is both good and bad.
2) Don't let cheap beer/shot combos become your go to drink the whole night.
3) The view from the top of the Empire State Building (at night) is well worth the insane waiting time.
4) Every homeless guy has an elaborate made up story.
5) Its never as cold as it seems like it should be.
6) There's way too many "Ray's" Pizzas (there's apparently an original one somewhere).
7) People in Manhattan > Williamsburgers
8) Everything cool in LA is just trying to mimic something cooler in NYC.
9) The Giants are the Manhattan team while the Jets are the surrounding burroughs (and Bud-Light knows what subways to put the appropriate ads to exploit this)
10) Artichoke pizza from "Artichoke" is the greatest thing you can put in your mouth.
11) Jay Z's "Empire State of Mind" is 100% true.
12) I want to live in NY.
MUSIC
Jay Reatard's got a morbid mind. Although he doesn't have many cheery things to sing about, he packages his gloominess in quick, aggressive, hook-covered songs. The word "epic" is often thrown around with this music... not epic in a Pink Floyd in Dark Side of the Moon sort of way. Epic in the way these songs gear up, and finish; often starting with a simple riff, and ending in a multi-instrument whirlwind building upon one repeated phrase.
"Blood Visions" is one of the most raunchy albums, ever.
