Walkonby why is a show being in Baltimore a problem? I prefer to see shows in that city. 

[i am gay and i like cats]

i get lost in baltimore easier than in dc, actually i love driving in dc, for some reason.  i know where all the easy parking garages are and all the great places to eat in dc.  i dont know a damn thing about balitimore.  it takes longer for me to get there, as well.  also, for some reason, and i dont why, and im sure i am wrong, but i feel safer in dc.

Get a GPS and a gun. Problems solved.

Your sense of direction can't be worse than Joe's. I've never met anyone who gets turned around that easily including myself.

still farther for me, so problem, not solved.  also, baltimore has too many syllables.

I find Baltimore easier to navigate. Anyways for that show, I would much rather watch it with an ottobar crowd over a Black Cat one. I do appreciate the distance issue, But for me that is a non-issue, as I am about 20 miles from either city.

I've lived in Baltimore City and also in DC (in addition to living in the burbs of both), and my findings were the same. Baltimore easier.

yeah baltimore is so small, especially when you factor out areas you would never visit anyway. most of the city laid out on a NS/EW grid.....extremely easy to get around.  then again, i live in it.

i don't have any problems getting around dc either for the most part....but i certainly find baltimore easier.

He's scared of the people of Bawlmore, like the Christian conservatives fear him.

Ottobar area has less killings than 930 club area.  If you get there early you can park in the club lot for free and they have a security guard in the lot.  At the Ottobar I would be more afraid of getting out if there were a fire in the club than the risks  outside the club.  Easy to find.  Take 83 south get off at 28th street, right on howard and you are there.

I was a motorcycle courier in DC once so I know my way around but Baltimore is much easier to find places.

How is it difficult to find something in DC?

4 quadrants with lettered and numbered streets radiating outward from that giant white building on the hill.
815 V St. NW?  Northwest of the capital on V st. (between U St. and W St.) and between 8th and 9th (800 < 815 < 900)

Named streets are sequential alphabetically and by number of syllables.

State streets go diagonally.


For 95% of the addresses in DC you can figure out where something is based on the above.

You want difficult, try Arlington.

FWIW, after the three-syllable streets are done headed northbound on Georgia Ave, it starts in on botanical names in alphabetical order without regard to syllable count.

Aspen
Butternut
Cedar
Dahlia etc
