Michael Jackson 3 nights in a row?

Are you kidding me?

I'm not even a Michael Jackson fan and I would so go see him over any U Street or H Street venue performer.

I went to the 1980 Bruce Springsteen concert and the 1984 Prince concert.  The MJ concerts turned DC upside down - I was in college at that point but remember my younger brother talking about this with glee.  There are a whole group of DC natives who remember that week fondly.

That list of concerts is amazing actually!! [/quote]

It is, except it is from the internet.

What's the point here?  That in the 1970's and 1980's there were lots of great 70's and 80's bands playing in DC?    Are you somehow under the impression that there aren't lots of great 201X bands playing in DC now?  There are.   You all sound like a bunch of losers that are living in the past.

You think there are too many chain stores because that is all you ever go to.  You think that all the cool neighborhoods are gone because you are too old and lame to go the new cool neighborhoods.

All you old DC natives sound pathetic.   Stop living in the past.

^ Says the transplant who is not old enough to remember anything before the year 2000 so he/she has to resort to calling people old.

Look, we already had a transplant on here admit that DC is not as interesting as it used to be.
Everyone with common sense already knows this.
Everyone except for you of course.

Stop buying into all of the hype.

I'm plenty old enough to remember well before they year 2000, thank you very much.

And if you are wandering around insisting that there is no interesting people, places, or things to do in this city - today - then you are the problem.    You are lame and stuck in the past.   Look in the mirror to find why you are so bored - don't blame new people moving into our city.[/quote]

Oh God.

You're probably the type that gets really giddy and excited about Sunday brunch, right?  That geeks out and made everyone go to Medium Rare when it opened?  That thought Busboys and Poets was the absolute HEIGHT of sophistication and cool.

Please.  We see right through that bullshit.

Btw... The giddy excitement with new DC reeks of transplant, came-from-a-small-town-and-now-I'm-in-the-big-city uncoolness.  Just FYI.  [/quote]
