Members Zledi Posted October 3, 2010 Members Share Posted October 3, 2010 I grew up in North Dakota. The population of the whole state is about equal to a small villiage in Ohio. Our claim to fame is Lawrence Welk. When I turned 30 I realized I was free to leave... Hahaha Its true! But I have to ask, why did you go from one barren tundra to another barren tundra?! (Iowa... which is actually where I wanna move) I also forgot to mention I spent three years in Seattle so all those musical people from there.

Members bruto Posted October 3, 2010 Members Share Posted October 3, 2010 I grew up in Pueblo, Colorado, which at the time was a vibrant music town. A few folks got marginally famous from there including Blaine Reineger - Tuxedo Moon and several solo CDs. I remember him playing bass and violin in church. I now live in Colorado Springs which is home to Johnny Smith - the best jazz guitarist of his time. He used to run a music store, and I'd see him occasionally. I saw him play once at a local club about 20 years ago. It was an unannounced visit, but I was lucky enough to be tipped off in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't even fake it anymore.Here in Claremont, the only ones I know of are Ben Harper and, I'm told, Buckethead.
