Who the f*ck is he going to book for these random one-off shows? Is your shitty local band from Erie going to drive to Syracuse to play a show for less than gas money because they want a local opener? The Syracuse bands exist for the same reason that the NYD show exists, because people decided to make them happen. Shut up about how your sad little city doesn't have a band worth throwing on a show and do something to change it, or find something better to do with your time.
