We are known internationally for our nightlife. We get a number of tourists, particularly from Europe who are here specifically to see the hometown of REM and the B52s. There are still bands playing in the bars every night of the week and it's a very, very vibrant scene. But I would say that the music is getting more and more diverse truly; it's not just the alternative rock. We have got jazz, bluegrass, and some hip-pop and rap. You can pretty much catch any type of music. We are also getting more venues that will start the music a little bit earlier so that people who have real jobs can come out and not be up whole night. We want everybody to be able to have a good time.
