Jetfan16 Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 i just realized today how big of a proponent i am of getting a feel for the city. you know, just driving around for no reason, listening to music, and getting the feeling for a city of 16,000 people that youve lived in your whole life. it doesnt matter that youve lived there your whole life, its still good to drive around for no reason and get a feel for the city, no matter what city it is, no matter how long you have lived there, or if youve never lived there. what are your takes on getting a feel for the city??

TaborJet Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 The sun goes down, the night rolls in You can feel it starting all over again The moon comes up and the music calls You're gettin' tired of starin' at the same four walls You're out of your room and down on the street Movin' through the crowd and the midnight heat The traffic crawls, the sirens scream You look at the faces, it's just like a dream Nobody knows where you're goin' Nobody cares where you've been 'Cause you belong to the city You belong to the night Livin' in a river of darkness Beneath the neon lights You were born in the city Concrete under your feet It's in your moves, it's in your blood You're a man of the streets When you said goodbye, you were on the run Tryin' to get away from the things you've done Now you're back again, and you're feeling strange So much has happened, but nothing has changed You still don't know where you're goin' You're still just a face in the crowd You belong to the city You belong to the night Livin' in a river of darkness Beneath the neon lights You were born in the city Concrete under your feet It's in your blood, it's in your moves You're a man of the street You can feel it, you can taste it You can see it, you can face it You can hear it, hey, you're getting near it, hey You wanna make it, cause you can take it You belong to the city, you belong to the night You belong to the city, you belong to the night You belong, you belong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetheelz Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 I get a feel for the city all the time. When someone is out in their yard doing something I honk the horn and 9 times out of 10 they automatically wave. I crank up loud music at the interesections and stoplights so I can watch the old people get cranky. I throw out cigarette butts and watch the yards catch on fire. Yeah, getting a feel for the city rocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beasted05 Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 i just realized today how big of a proponent i am of getting a feel for the city. you know, just driving around for no reason, listening to music, and getting the feeling for a city of 16,000 people that youve lived in your whole life. it doesnt matter that youve lived there your whole life, its still good to drive around for no reason and get a feel for the city, no matter what city it is, no matter how long you have lived there, or if youve never lived there. what are your takes on getting a feel for the city?? If no one knows i invented getting a feel for the city. It all started in a Feb night last year in saratoga. It was snowing out and me and my friends were driving around downtown toga after goin to the Harness and were blairing phish in a BB Art Suburban. I rowed down the window and started beasting at a group of random girls downtown and they beasted back and we drove around for hours following them. As we were driving away one girl was running towards us and we drove away and ate at tgi fridays and called it a night. Basically since then i realized and started to dedicate my life to getting a feel of citys cause you never know what will happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
