petit choux posted:You have a point. There are still little local rock and roll hangouts in probably the usual places. We have a skate shop around here that serves as the only punk venue in the area, it's like the only place with a semblance of a music scene around here. I haven't been to it, I think my thrashing days are done, I dunno. I'm probably spoiled by being raised in Memphis and moving near Nashville later since there's literally like a dozen venues with shows going almost every single day for just about every genre of music in both those cities. Maybe everyone just avoids Pittsburgh because of the noxious fentanyl cloud.

All the all ages punk venues I went to as a kid are shut down, or bullied out of existence by the police I think. They might still do all ages shows at the VFW basement.

The skate shop is in a little space next to a record store, and the record store owner is the son of the former sheriff. I sorta suspect a lot of those type places nowadays are discreetly designated safe spaces for kids to blow off steam.

Dr_0ctag0n posted:Lol imagine thinking some online ticket site is where young people are looking for local musical entertainment. lol yeah when I was a kid you couldn't really see advertisements or pre-buy tickets for most of the shows I went to. A lot of them weren't even in what you'd really call venues, lots of backyards and basements

The kids probably have musical styles we are not hip to yet, and drugs that our old brains are too hardwired to experience correctly. They are experiencing everything for the first time, imbuing every moment with meaning beyond our calcified understanding.

There are tons of small live venues in Pittsburgh, they often only post shows on Instagram or outside channels. I'm constantly going to stuff around here it's absolutely bumping if you know the right folks. The best party runs til 7am and is filled with sweaty guys in puppy masks sniffing poppers dancing to thumping techno music.

Yeah well don't go assuming that bands playing on stages is like some kind of eternal constant. Lots of people are doing things that are outside that lovely little 20th century paradigm.

The hot dog guy in question got a valuable resource for the homeless shut down by having his friends in media astroturf for months about how the homeless were ruining the city

TROOF I can’t believe that these Fascist Monsters have so viciously gone after the great Peter Navarro for defying the totally partisan January 6th Unselect Committee of political Hacks and Thugs, who refused to go after Crazy Nancy Pelosi, and the reasons she and the Mayor of D.C. REJECTED 10,000 soldiers, which would have easily stopped any future security problem. His testimony wouldn’t have mattered, anyway, because the “Committee” QUICKLY and ILLEGALLY DELETED & DESTROYED ALL EVIDENCE & FINDINGS!

The same media apparatus here that was used to get homeless resources shut down is now actively trying to get public transit destroyed, very cool https://www.post-gazette.com/news/transportation/2023/09/08/pittsburgh-regional-transit-budget-ridership-federal-funds/stories/202309080067 quote:The Allegheny Policy Institute argued that Pittsburgh’s light-rail costs are 25% above the national average, as The Center Square previously reported, with the city’s light-rail system resembling San Jose and Los Angeles more than similarly sized cities. "Our light rail is pretty good for a city of our size and that's why it must be shut down," says smartypants public policy think tank
