what's Branson? is that like part of St. Louis or something?
It's a town in southwestern Missouri, somewhere in the Ozarks. I never been, but from what I've gathered it's like a country version of Vegas. More family friendly though. Lots of theatres and entertainment.
On The Simpsons, it was once referred to as "it's just like Vegas, except if it was run by Ned Flanders."
I'm not really surprised at the list except for Denver. But then again I can't really think of a city that should be ranked instead of Denver.
Perhaps I will google this up and see what they used for their criteria. It is kind of like trying to rank the best "fruit". How can you compare watermelons to kiwis? How can you compare NYC to Branson? They must be using some innocuous statistic like "number of people at performances" or "number of shows per year" or something like that.
Ummmm... depends on what kind of music you are into.
Hardcore hands down is Boston, Mass
lol was just about to say that... those certainly would not be my picks!

I'll give you one... its called Los Angeles. not a single city from the entire west coast on this list... looks like trash to me.
They should stick to writing about their travels and let somebody from a music staff do that part of the research ;o
okay okay... now I get it... I did my *own* research.

no offense to wisconsin people... love your beer/brats/cheese and hey, milwaukee is a pretty good place for live music itself... I certainly prefer summer fest there that you run right along side the taste of chicago
