It's illegal to be gay in Little Rock - this is such a reality for so many people, but once people get to these bubbles of New York or L.A. or Boulder, Colorado, they forget.

It couldn't have happened anywhere but in little old New York.

What is interesting, as well, is how much power homicide detectives have and how much respect. They are kind of rock stars, especially in New York. There are not that many of them.

New York is the dream world, the center of jazz and rock.

New York City has more rock history in its 305 square miles than most of America combined.

Our goal is not to be New York or L.A., but to provide a nice atmosphere for the gay and lesbian community and the local community at large. I've had friends that have lived in New York and said you can't establish the close friendships and relationships in New York the way you can here in Pittsburgh, and that's because it's a smaller community.
