A nod maybe, but most places are just one-scene towns. Historically maybe they are very important but New York City has given birth to many scenes; punk, hip hop, no wave, anti folk..

I wasn't kidding with Minneapolis.

Prince
Suicide Commandos
Replacements
Husker Du
Atmosphere
Brother Ali
Alexander East
Gay Beast
To Kill A Petty Bourgeoisie
The Trashmen
Morris Day & the Time
Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis
Eyedea & Abilities
...

The list goes on. MPLS might not have the biggest scene, but per capita, i think we've got the greatest amount of great bands.
