Gothamist and Bowery Boogie have already weighed in on this, but I can't stop myself from throwing in my two cents. Evidently, there's a reality show in the works that seeks to document "the line between the music world and the real life drama of up and coming singer-songwriters who live around and play the circuit of performance venues on the Lower East Side of New York City.” Well, pardon me for being cynical (who, me?), but wouldn't this show have made more sense about, oh, at least a couple of decades ago when struggling musicians could actually afford to live and creatively thrive in the Lower East Side? Yes, I know, I'm stuck in the past, but please -- and pardon the pun -- let's be real.
