I'm sadly gonna have to agree with you, dave. The mod "scene" here in NYC
is pretty bad. After boucing between Chicago and Sydney for most of my
life, I expected much more from NYC (meaning a more tightly knit scene- mod
bands, art, etc.) Yeah, there is the occasional vespa and a few good hang
outs, but not nearly what you'd expect from the big apple.
