Boring travel advice thread ahoy!
The other half is going to New England for a research trip just before Easter, and I'm going to head over to join her for a week or so at the beginning of April. Probable schedule for the two of us is most of a week in New York and a few days seeing somewhere else.
Hence we're after recommendations for:
where to stay (at least, what areas to look in)
where to eat (cheap, stuff we can't get in London)
where to drink (fancy beer)
where to dance (suitable for geeky 30-somethings, so nowhere too Logan's Run)
where to find out about live music (esp weird experimental shit)
somewhere else to go for a few days for a bit of contrast (ie probably small-townish and scenic but still with a bit of life). We're thinking New England for this.
Thanks!
