“These children I was with (I think I can say that now because when I was their age there were no automated blogging tools, not that I’m anybody’s example of an adult) had moved to Williamsburg. Why? Because it was where it was at. Things were happening. But what “things”? This was a purely Gen X scene with the kind of population density Gen X never came close to achieving in its own time. Blame it on a low birth rate, or a lack of motivation. But everybody on Bedford Avenue agrees the Pixies were not properly appreciated in their time.”
