Never heard of that, but I am at some little hole in the wall every weekend supporting my friends and other local bands. It is just sad to be at an incredible show and there only be 8 people there.

Montrose is a mostly white neighborhood with half a million dollar houses, I wouldn't exactly call that diverse. The only reason why people make that claim is because montrose is known as the gay neighborhood. Sugar land is more diverse than montrose is. As far as city-centre I wouldn't call that a "neighborhood" it's more like a entertainment complex.
