eternium
02.17.12 | "Lol I was planning on making a list about music from Georgia today, I'll get started on that in a bit."
I've thought about doing that many times before. I would have included a shit ton of local bands. |
americanohno

Masochist
02.17.12 | Teenage Bottlerocket is from Wyoming. |
eternium

Ovrot

Masochist
02.17.12 | I'm stumped. The lead singer of The Decemberists is from Montana, as well as the bassist for Pearl Jam, but no one notable in their own right. |
Poet
02.17.12 | Chuck Berry m/ |

02.18.12 | Aristotle foad
And WA should have been Botch |
eternium
02.18.12 | WA was either going to be AIC, Botch, or Melvins. Decided on AIC since they're more important to the state. |
slashface000
02.18.12 | The idea of this list was good but there's too many lame/obvious choices. Alice in Chains aren't even that good let alone important to the state |
eternium
02.18.12 | Oh, okay. |
Adabelle
02.18.12 | GG Allin on a list, crayz. |
cvlts
02.18.12 | martriden is from montana. git sum |

02.18.12 | also, aic is basically a californian band now |
Relinquished
02.18.12 | "WA was either going to be AIC, Botch, or Melvins. Decided on AIC since they're more important to the state."
how are the Melvins not as important as AIC |
eternium
02.18.12 | Yeah, now but they were Washington until Layne died. |
cvlts
02.18.12 | i mean earth, modest mouse, even death cab? |
MO
02.18.12 | 21 rules |
eternium
02.18.12 | I know how important Melvins are. Dirt is just one of my favorite albums and when people think of Washington they will think of bands like Nirvana and AIC. That doesn't take away from Melvins being one of the best bands ever. |
seaneh
04.27.12 | Im pretty sure Slayer is from Florida. Interesting list regardless though. |
10songsblog
02.20.13 | I did a blog of 50 States 50 songwriters on my blog last July. SO many to choose from it was ridiculous. But there is Don Ho from Hawaii, as well as world legend Iz. And Stevie Nicks is from Arizona and is sexier than JEW. So many from New York but I'd say Carole KIng over Wu-tang. Also I'd say Duke Ellington for D.C. modern music would be nothing without him. Lyle Lovett is from Texas. I don't what kind of genres you are looking for or what sort of scope you want in your choices. And I think the title should be 50 States 50 Musicians not bands. Oh and The Osmonds were from Ohio in case you wanted something not as good as what you already have there. |
