baltimore = garage rock
 dc = emo

i like baltimore alot. heading up there friday, in fact. i like the fact that its close when traffic is managable, nice to leave town without having to spend 4 hours in the car. has more of a native character than dc as well.

 Although, I do hear you got a nice aquarium up there. Maybe someday I'll check that out.

someone's never been to the south side on a saturday night. i lived in pittsburgh for most of my life, its a bit harsh to call it 'dead'

Where? I just read through that thread and didn't see any complaints about Baltimore. The only thing I read that could be filed under complaint was redsock's posts about not being able to book the band.

Yeah..if there's one thing DC's lacking it's corners to buy crack and smack and hookers.  [/QB]

It's not lacking that at all......you have Baltimore!

 I thought DC was getting the Expo's ...... didn't we have a whole thread on naming the team?
 
 *edit* never mind, I just saw the other thread about the stadium fiasco....HEY! How about the "WASHINGTON FIASCO'S"??
 
 What's going on with the ice hockey season by the way?

Someone has been to the sa' side on a saturday night. Granted, it is lively, but its one street in the entire city that is lively. However, that's across the river. Have you been in downtown Pittsburgh on a saturday night? Ghost town. (That's what Baltimore seemed to be like as well.) Plus, they just closed down another live music venue.  The club show is practically nonexistent in the Burg.

theres plenty of life in downtown Baltimore!!
 
   Granted, it may not be what you want to do, but theres stuff a plenty.
 
   Of course, the Power Plant if you want a meat market.  you also have Federal Hill which has a ton of bars and a few clubs.  Fells Point is always good for drinking and bars, as is Canton.
 
    you have some clubs downtown, Sonar, One and a few others.  Plus some venues up the streets (i hesitate to say uptown) by the Belvedere and even past the with the Ottobar (which isnt just a concert hall you know)
 
   theres lots of stuff to do in Baltimore, silly people!

heh, saying the south side doesn't count is like saying adams morgan or u street doesn't count for dc. dahtahn isn't made for night life, and the strip, oakland and walnut street are all exceedingly busy. if pittsburgh's good for one thing its getting drunk cheap
 
 plus, they've started having shows at the warehouse on 21st street. once one venue goes down in pittsburgh, another one springs forth. its the circle of life
