George Thorogood and Delaware (his band’s full name is the Delaware Destroyers).
Whenever I see a “Welcome to Ohio” sign I think of Neil Young (“Tin soldiers and Nixon coming…”), but that’s probably just me.
Lynyrd Skynyrd and Alabama. For that matter, the band Alabama and the state of Alabama. Dolly Parton and Tennessee (she has her own amusement park there).
Pigeon Forge, TN
Why Bruce Willis, he’s a Jersey boy, his most famous character is NYPD and no one knows his music.
All the grunge bands, and Jimi Hendrix : Seattle, WA.
His singing career was winding down but talk show host Mike Douglas and Philadelphia. Always talking about “our Eagles” and working on a Mayor Rizzo anti defamation council.
They were from Jacksonville FL
Jimi I think of in London and NY. Did he ever play a concert in WA?
Barack Obama and Chicago.
Oprah and Chicago.
The Dubliners - Dublin
Also: You know that in TN just about everyone with a half decent legacy country music career has a museum/park/venue?
Gershwin, Lou Reed and many more are too.
Ray Davies and England/London/Muswell Hill.
The band Chicago (CTA) and Chicago.
The Beach Boys and southern California, especially the beaches.
You had to go there.
Boston also is :
Jonathan Richman and the Modern Lovers
J Geils
Aerosmith
Cars
I came from there so I’m too close to it. So let me ask: Who do you all think is representative of “Boston”?
Ugh, I hope not.
I’m not a fan of Eminem or Kid Rock, but they come to my mind as local musicians before Nugent.
The Dropkick Murphys
