In New York music is everywhere.
does not matter, because they can just walk into a place like Rockwood Music Hall to find some real musicians, and more.
The restaurant is tiny, perhaps less than fifty seats Seated ...
The stage is tiny but still more has to do a grand piano, the battery is in the middle of the tables, but the acoustics are perfect, the light is soft, wooden furniture, the sound engineer is the legs dangling onto the stage sitting on a ladder that turns into a loft ...
do not pay the entrance, but at the end of each performance (about one hour for each group), passes a girl with a bowl to collect the "tip", a tip for musicians who do not receive any other compensation from the local ...
We passed by a group from Brooklyn folk-rock/indie ( Aunt Martha, so I do a little 'advertising, that were really good) to another even better jazz ( Dred Scott Trio ), and no one who does covers, hats off!

And then there are the roads, and the music on street corners, sax, gospel choirs, guitarists ...
And tonight a pianist in meters, with a real piano between the tracks, who knows how did she take it down there that there is even an elevator ...
