I see complaints all the time that mid sized and smaller metropolitan areas like ATL (avg pop 1 million to 6 million) do not have any kind of 'scene' like LA or NYC's and I came up with the same rational... sheer size in population definitely is proportional to how much culture a particular city does have... if there is more culture there is of course more to do and better 'scenes'.. then many of the larger cities have a rather large suburban area or another fairly large city nearby (i.e. LA has Orange county and San Diego is only 1.5 hrs away.. ppl there who are into the scenes can make the occaisional drive there for various events..) I think one of the problems with Atlanta is any other sizable city is quite a drive away and therefore not worth going to unless there is a big show or event..
