Review of Denver, Colorado

this is ridiculous. someone from pitts of philly, the industrial north, saying that denver is great because a bar is dedicated to the Greatful Dead. Wow. First off, I have lived in Dallas, DC, New Orleans, Denver, Montgomery, AL, Colorado Springs, Jackson, MS, Ft. Lauderdale/WPB, and Chicago. You can find bars dedicated to old bands in all of the cities. You just might be the oldest one there. Secondly, comparing Pitts or Philly to Denver isn't exactly fair. Both are the industrial north. Which nowhere in Colorado is, nor have that type of industry. Denver would seem gorgeous to someone from there, but so would a garbage fill. Innercity Denver is not that great. It is a city that had a western heritage and people coming here from everywhere else notice that the people are somewhat rude. Stuck up even. Some much for the wild west. The pollution is embarrassing, making one want to rush for oxygen masks. However, the climate is great, just not many trees.
