the tricky thing is to nurture a place where creativity can be nurtured, without it becoming too much about the *place.* Some people have to stay there, to keep it going, but there should be fresh arrivals and departures too. Not just New Orleans--I've heard musos refer to Austin as "the Velvet Coffin." Lots of college towns like that too.Of course, there can be different scenes in the same towns.
