Places You Want To Live In
 

I've always wanted to live so many different places. New York, Chicago, Paris, Italian Coast, many others...wondering where everyone else's wishful thinking would lead them. Discuss

i know it might sound strange to some people, but ive always wanted to live in Portland Oregon. a hell of alot of the band sthat i love are either from there or moved there or have lived there etc.
from what ive read about it and seen in movies it looks pretty great!, i would really really love to move there when i can but im only 17 at the moment so i have a long time to wait untill that is possible.
one of my friends at college is spending his summer in portland with some guy he met on the internet who lives there, i couldent be more jealous of him!

Have you ever seen the movie ''Bongwater'' (Luke Wilson, Jack Black, Andy Dick)? It takes place in Portland and is great (not really my kind of flick) if you love some great stoner movies.

Somewhere very cold, because I've never felt cold and I'd quite like to know what it's like.

Maybe Siberia, near Lake Baikal.

Otherwise, Manchester quite appeals to me. Not very cold, but at least it rains and it's a nice place.

no i havent, i will definetely check it out!, ive seen 'drugstore cowboys' and 'hunted' they were both filmed in and around portland.

its strange i met this guy on an Elliott Smith messge board who lives in portland and really really wants to live in birmingham uk, where i live! strange.

Well a lot of musicians/bands have come out of Birmingham, albeit a different kind. So, maybe that's his thing, you know?

I love living in England, and I'm not sure that there's anywhere I'd want to live so much that I'd be willing to leave England for it. I would like to live somewhere a bit more in the countryside though.

The only good one I can thing of is Black Sabbath.

yeah the first time i posted he said "YOU LIVE IN THE BIRTHPLACE OF METAL!!!!!!".

ha ha ha ha ha, like Ozzy just walks around here talking to people and we have a huge metal scene here, we dont!!!, its all posh London twats that have come up for the day to go to the bullring shopping mall or emo's!

Reykjavik, Tokyo, London, Zanzibar, Sydney, Copenhagen or New York.

:eek:

I was going to drive up to Brum one day to hit the shops, but I'm too scared now.

That's funny he said that. I think there is a part of me that wants to believe that about places, eventhough I know it is highly unlikely, yopu know what I mean? Its like if I lived in New York, I would bump into Thurston or whoever. Just be walking down the street and run into all these great musicians and start talking to them, I think thats part of what makes a place longed for in my mind. Although in reality, if I ever saw someone like that, I would more than likely just say something quick and keep going, this due to my lack of social skills with musicians I respect.

no come its alright, it can be a bit annoying when you get asked for directions about 20 times when your in town though,just dont ask for directions and you will be okay!

Tokio
or anywhere in Japan

you get it everytime you go to a gig too, the band ALWAYS asks some black sabath related question! like we know them personnaly or something!

i'm gonna live in Sydney in Oz for a few years when i'm older.
New York would be my second choice, or myself and my mate always say we're gonna try Canada for a few years sometime in the future.

oh canada id love to live in canada, out in the middle of nowhere though, not in the cities.

Yep, Tokyo would be pretty amazing even though its (I think) the most expensive place to live in the world. Actually I think it got shunted down to number two. I'm sure they where devestated.

anywhere in russia, poland or ukraine

Japan,China,Thailand,Berlin,India.
