You two dudes are internet millenials. Trust me terrorists aren't going to kill you if you go to dive bars to catch local musicians and Hip Hop artists perform.

In talking to older middle class musicians there is a Southern music scene which is vibrant and a Chicago scene that is vibrant. In Southern CA, we have quite a few local hero's and the scene is growing. Again, but you got to get out of the house...but if you cannot relate to people maybe it is better if you stay in your safe spaces, let the big boys live life.
I live in San Diego and am an actively performing musician there, btw. I believe regionality isn't a thing any more because a sound isn't affixed to a certain area since the Internet allows for an easy spread of information and what someone is doing in San Diego can easily be picked up by someone in Germany. Pretty simple stuff if you don't let your head get too big to think rationally just because you're a big boy.
