hey...

Reggae - Seriously, if you want to TREK out to the boonies. Go to Jamaica Queens, the last stop on the Queens bound F. VP records is there, and all the real dancehall/reggae spots are there. It's worth the trek, and its REAL NY...meaning dirty.

There is also a very small record spot on 3rd street between 2nd Ave. and 1st? called Jammyland. Real tiny, but they got stuff...Also, Deadly Dragon Sound on Forsyth St., nr. Broome St.

personal recommendation -- no matter what you do. dont go out until after midnight...drunk people watching is much more fun, and more silly nightlife stuff goes down after 2!

Seriously, go to Jammyland. Probably the best place in lower manhattan, and the people that work there are really nice and helpful.
