 Topic: Favorite Geographically Named Band?Posted: June 08 2008 at 14:09 |
|
I have been listening to a lot of Asia, Boston, Chicago, Europe, and Kansas lately and thought that I would create a poll for bands named after geographic locations. Which of the above is your favorite? As I am sure that I probably left out bands that didn't come to mind I have included the other category.

Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson

Japan!
Then U.K., California Guitar Trio, and parts of Kansas. The others are mostly a big snooze fest. |

A Foreigner took a Journey to Boston, Chicago, & Kansas, continuing on to Europe, Asia & Japan..... yeah, I'd been thinking about starting this thread for a long time, but I didn't have the nerve.

Chicago - one of the greatest jam bands ever. Yes, they did some horrible pop ballads, but so did Genesis. (I meant "sure, they did some pop ballads." In this forum you can't use the word "Yes" without being confusing.)
