13015865, the arts and live concert music scene SUCKS
Posted by deejboram, Wed May-04-16 11:15 AM
We rarely get good live music acts
They will go to nawlins, Dallas skip houston, hit austin.

Alvin Ailey only comes here one wind every two years

There is no straight ahead jazz spot like blue note, yoshis or village vanguard

There are no jazz shows period

Soul music like Glasper, Bilal, etc never come here.

The museums here suck and aren't plenty full

Although I do have my daughter in a summer arts program at MFAH this summer


Houston is not a very "intelligent" city on a whole
They just some hick ass Cowboys sipping drank

Yeah. No artsy fartsy type stuff to do
And I'm always in the gayborhood (montrose) checking the scene
