Re: I'M a Tourist and i need you !!!
we are 4 guys coming from montreal on Aug 21-22-23
1- HOTEL - we don't need something really hot and expensive....but neither dangereous and dirty ...any tipsor idea for me ????
the cheapest i ever found was about $70/night. it was safe and clean, but not very luxurious. you probably want to stay somewhere in lower manhattan.
2- VISIT - we are only 19 so we dont want to visit museum ,,,we wanna see the real things...tell me what's cool to see ! there's the chinatown and wtc but after that....
good shopping along broadway b/t canal and houston. variety of stuff, street vendors...
greenwich village - 4th and 6th ave or so - some good shops, fun bars - it looks like you will be here on weekdays so i wouldn't be too worried about ID....
east village - st marks (8th st) b/t 2nd and 3rd - great restaurants, interesting shops...
saturday afternoon - ps1 - MoMA has a division in queens - 2 stops from lower manhattan - that throws a weekly party with an incredible vibe. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
i think midtown is a waste of time, but broadway shows, times square, empire state bldg are all there...
central park is beautiful.
bronx zoo - i only say this because i want to go....
3- CAR - is it dangereous to keep your car parked in NY and take it 3 days later ?
$55/ticket - i know this personally. you can park in a lot of places for free after 7:00 but that doesn't include the daytime. it is reasonalbly safe - if you park in one of the lots on the west side, you should be able to leave it for $12/day or so.
4- Tell me shops to make good bargains for things like electronic or psx2 or you know what i mean
satellite records for vinyl - bowery and canal st.
other cheap shopping - see above
5- Tell me where not to go hehehe 
midtown
6- THE CLUBS to go ( you know i like trance 
arc is my favorite club in the city but they play progressive house mostly (danny teneglia on fridays for afterhours is great.)
tuesday and thursday have the best parties of the week and if i am not mistaken, some ppl on this board should be starting a wednesday night party soon.
pm me if you are interested in more info because i'll have more specific info on the weekly parties closer to the date.
FYI -a bunch of NYTAs are heading down to DC the 24th for Johan Geilen. I don't know of any big trance events that weekend. NY is not really a trance city.
sorry about the super long response - hope this helps.
