@DaBomb3434 he played it at SXSW in Austin, Texas. He ironically says "This is a song about where I live." There's a vid on youtube of it. Search "Why You'd Want to Live Here SXSW 2010."

i wonder if he has played this song since he has moved to LA
-
Actually he recently moved to LA...
-
I personally think it's about him trying to convince a "lover" to not live there, hence "I can't see why you'd want to live here."
But to each his own, I suppose. =]

Actually "douche" he lives in Seattle.
-
he lives in DC u douche
-
This could be a love song or a song about how much he hates LA, either way everything he says about LA is very true and although I find this song to be truthful i still love LA even with all its flaws. I would think Ben Gibbard is the same way seeing as he lives in LA.

I LOVE HIM. AMAZING SONG
-
He has played it in LA and we all cheered. I live there and I frickin hate it too.

On the Death Cab DVD Drive Well, Sleep Carefully, there's footage of them playing this song in LA. At the end he says "I hope you guys don't take that song personally".
he has performed it before. from what i understand, he prefaces it with the true explanation for the song, and how it's a love song, trying to stop a girl from moving to CA.
