I’m not sure where he is exactly from but those LES guys always seemed to live in cheap rent controlled apartments where it doesn’t make sense to give it up. I think Petey Red does the same thing in LES and guy has had major rackets for decades.
1.By LES, I assume you mean Lower East Side Manhattan? (I'm just trying to get some clarity as I'm not from the US)
2. Why do the LES guys live in cheap rent controlled apartments? I suppose it's fucking expensive to live in Manhattan?
3. "it doesn’t make sense to give it up"
I know this is slang but what does it mean?
Sorry for my dumb questions, I just got to ask.
