    	As a Texan that has moved to Colorado I can say that the prejudice
    is more a habit 	from the 1970's when all the rich old Texans with
    oil money came to the ski slopes and tried to rule the place.  When
    someone does kid me about being from Texas, I come back 	with
    something like "if it were not for Texans spending their money up
    here you would only have one ski slope to ski on.  They also hated
    John Denver because it is "his" fault that 	people moved to
    Colorado. Also most people are now against Californians so I think
    you are safe. If you are a normal human being and just a nice person
    most likely nobody will even care or notice where you are from.  I
    did several shows up here 	before I moved and did very well.  A
    friend of mine from Austin does very very well in Colorado.  Stay
    away from the little local town shows they are just like any little
    town 	show in any little town America. (disclaimer: I know there are
    some great shows in little 	towns that have built up through the
    years, I am not talking about them) Stick with the tourist area shows
    or shows in the larger cities.
