And your little dog, too!
$1,000 a person? Yeah, maybe if you spend all your time buying $20 shots and wasting money on strippers in Scores.
Food, transportation and lodging are no more expensive than they are in any other major city, including Atlanta. Trust me, I've lived here my entire life and I've seen enough of the rest of the country to know that we compare pretty favorably. The only thing I've seen be slightly more expensive is the booze. Otherwise, if you're talking about an area like Times Square, for example, there are plenty of cheap places to eat like Applebee's, Chevy's, hundreds of pizzerias - and everything is within walking distance. And I don't mean blocks away, either. I mean ten or twelve feet. Not only that, everything stays open practically 24/7, so you'd literally never have to leave whatever neighborhood the venue is in. And who the heck needs a car in Manhattan? There are $2 buses and subways to and from the airport that will take you anywhere in the city, and once you're there, all you need is a Metro Card and subway map. Anyone can get around this city easily, no matter where you're from.
An event in NYC would be obscenely expensive for a promoter, but for an attendee? Nah.

Agreed. Transportation in Atlanta is more expensive than NYC.
Food is slightly more expensive up in NY, but it depends on where you eat. Houlahan's is Houlahan's, Subway is Subway, no matter where you go. The difference in price is a matter of pennies.

Uhh........I lived on Long Island for 30 years,so I DO know what I'm talking about.
Find me a hotel under $150 a night within close proximity of NYC(that is ether not in the South Bronx,Brownsville,or is infested with roaches)
The only way a NYC show works is if its held outside of the actual City(hell,even Long Island,don't know whats still open there,Mulcahy's is a huge bar,remember Dream Theater playing there a few times,maybe Westbury Music Fair.but the drawback to Long Island is lack of hotels at all),either CT,NJ,or Westchester/Rockland,ect
The one good thing about a NY show is all of you would be schooled in the wonders of tru NY pizza(all other pizza is false,period)

I forgot about how obscenely expensive alcohol is in NYC(the average bill for a PPer would be $75 a night at the bar),
and the Scores thing,this is one place I DO have some peeps at (But I do see again,large ammounts of $$$ being spent there,this is not Atlanta,)

Damn you sure have that right.
Famous Ray's Pizza, 6th and 11th. Accept no immitations.
Having been to NYC many times I agree the Pizza is out of this world. Theres a place in either Smithstown or Happauge L.I. that has amazing Pizza too.
Having said that theres a place here in Nashua NH that makes NYC style Pizza and its absolutely delicious. Alot of places claim NYC style but its not. This place 100% is.
Ok so Im sidetracked......anyone see the ridiculous commercials for Dominos Brooklyn style pizza? LOL what a joke.

The commericals are ridiculous. Not to mention, if you saw the people that actually worked at the Domino's, you'd laugh even harder....
Anyway, I'm almost tempted to try it just to see how bad it is.
It's like when you stop to see a car crash, that sort of thing.
Let me save you the time and money. It blows. It taste like Dominos pizza just a bigger slice.
$1,000 a person? Yeah, maybe if you spend all your time buying $20 shots and wasting money on strippers in Scores.
And people pay 150, 180 for the Granada.. I guess paying 80, 100 a night wouldn't affect a lot of people...
What is it about NYC's pizza, that it's considered a style of its own? I agree it owns, but I dont know what is it aboot it.
They say it;s the best pizza in the USA.
I don't really agree..(but only tried pizza from NY, CT, Atlanta and somewhere in PA) but then again, the only pizza I really like is from my city (São Paulo - Brazil)

Dominos=laxitive that tastes like 3rd rate tomato soup and false cheese like substance
if you want post alcohol food THAT can act like laxitive and tastes great
White Castle(another NYC area delicacy,although street meat might actually have more nutricianal value

Taste,water,texture(it starts and ends with the crust)It has taste. It's in the water. Seriously.
Sauce is also important(Most of the USA,the sauce tastes like spiced up Ketchup)
J-Dubya 777
It NEVER ends
Been there done that, and unless we got 7 "bad" pizza places, there has never been ANYTHING in NY to compare with Chicago pizza, especially Chicago style deep dish....

Hell yeah! Sao Paulo is the Gastronomy capital of the world, I am not surprised pizza there is the best in the world. =)

I'm not, as much as I'd love to. If I had the financial condition to do so, then I would love to try.
