Why is LA so...well....LA

[scott carrelli]

Maybe its just because I find it the hardest place to get a gig and I live in California. But why the fook do people in LA have to be so LA?

That's why

hahaha, funny video.

I have been out here in Hollywood since January. For the most part it's ok. I have come out here to work in the movie business, and have found it's not that easy. There are so many people out here trying to do the same thing I am. I have worked on a couple of projects, and am going to start interning at a very successful production company next week. I don't really like Hollywood though, very dirty, and packed with all sorts of shit.

Can't beat the weather though.
peace,
Steve

Sorry about that. I don't know why most people here are that way. I know exactly what you're talking about though. I hope you make it big and throw sand in the face of all of the @rseholes that gave you a hard time. I hope I get to see spin soon too.

Admittedly, you really do have to sift through a lot of shit to find the right people here in LA.

In all honesty, those people who act stuck up are also those who are trying *too* hard to make it - they're not really there yet, and that's why they act that way.

Take my word, stick with LA just a little bit longer, and you'll find lots of really down to earth people.

I know a friend who came down to LA from San Fran just a few years ago. He had the same attitude as you - hated LA alot, but once he gave it some time he started to appreciate the city a bit more. It was too bad, though, that once he got things started he had to move back up after he was put into a coma from a freak car accident.

NOW COME ON with this...

puuuuhhlease, like the people in NYC are any different?? they do the same shit and act the same way, just w/ a NYC attitude. ever been to Miami? same shit, different time zone.

since i'm not from here (from Philly originally) here's my take on things :

$$$$$$$$$$ + fame + women + weather + density of people = the city of angels

LA/SoCal rocks!! it's the dopest place in the US bar none. you can do anything, see everything, hear everything, all while wearing shorts and a t-shirt. the ocean, the mountains, the desset.

if you have a major void in your life for quality people who are into the music scene, just say so. there's atleast 20+ peeps on this board in and around LA who are real and party in the right circles. it's a varitable who's who of music heads on MS.

Good vid, made me laugh.

I?m sure most places can be the same, london has it?s fair share of assholes and wanna be?s as well.

[CSquare]

it's an amazing city. you need to give it time to appreciate it.

[groffhibbitz]

I'm kind of fed up as well. I can't get a gig anywhere to save my life The people that I have met (not ms people) are all self serving stuck up coke head ass holes, and they seem to have all these connections! It makes me mad..

I also don't have any friends to hit any of these events with. Probably won't go to Jonathan Lisle since I don't feel like going alone.

[WilDFire]

It took me a year to love LA, then I was really sad to leave it two years hence. I did make some amazing friends. Would love to go back, but not too sure about raising a family there.

You should go even if you go alone. I am sure you wont be the only person from MS there.
