LOL!!!! Are YOU serious is the question????
Now, I'm not taking any sides since I happen to like many styles/genres of
house, but by the same token LA indeed DOES rock. Sure NY/Chitown may be a
huge part of that foundation, but that's besides the point.
AND from my understanding (now correct me if I'm wrong), to truly be "house"
is to accept all things under that very "roof" of the house. Not to sound
cheesy, but that goes for everything; whether music, dancing style, fashion,
cultural backgound, sexual orientation, etc, etc.....anything else would be
a diss to that very concept. You don't have to like any particular style,
but you really should accept it. It is what it is. Different strokes for
different folks. Whatchu talkin bout Willis?
And regarding "paving the way", I think LA is the future you are talking
about, due to that very reason.......options are good, and we have it ALL,
and I'm loving it =)
