Okay, so I'm going to New York for the first time ever in exactly 2 weeks. I'm there for four nights. Basically, much of the art and music I love is from New York, and I'm determined not to just go around seeing the sights, I want to explore the 'soul' of the city, see what makes New York tick and what makes it artistically the most facinating of places- go under the surface a little, I guess. I'm also determined to go to a gig whilst I'm there, but I've no way of knowing whats on and what venues to the check, and I'm 19, which may be a problem getting into venues.
So the itinerary of my trip is yours to determine. but what I want to know is, ~ what places will intrest my musically, (so obviously i have alot of interest in no wave and NY avant-garde, but also old-school hip-hop) ~ what place will interest me artistically (galleries - big ones and small independent ones) ~ excellent record shops ~ gigs I might enjoy in the 4 days after the 4th, or at least where i can find out about them ~ things that just need to be seen.
your help would be much appreciated...
