I actualy liked North Carolina, far west, seemed there was music there, and folks working at it... but I supose you mean California. Could be. Then again, every now and then doesn't the ground open up and swallow your houses, dogs, and other neet stuff? New York is such a hard place to live in, because foriegn (mid western)landlords bought the place up and hiked rents to the point that every one is working until they die to get more into dept... but as I said, I can't get Genie to move, or I would be in Quebec playing at St. Patrick's Pub tommorrow - or Devizes at the Barge Inn...
