I know what you mean and those people have been replaced by the LBTQ community. Christiania in Copenhagen is the same. I always find that anxiety is so underrated when it comes to explaining these people.I guess for me, it's easy to romanticize that era in New York. That sort of thing doesn't exist anymore. Just a whole slew of weirdos, getting strung out, or hustling, making art, ripping folks off, anything to make a few bucks to exist. Big cities, pre-gentrification, always seem to have the artists. probably because they could afford to slack off and be self-indulgent when the rent is cheap and nobody cares what you do there. I'm not saying I would ever want to live like that personally, but there's something you have to love about young people ignorant to the world, in a strange, dangerous yet supportive environment and trying to make sense of it all through art.
