WHERE MUSIC LISTENS TO YOU

The Ultimate In Street Cred...

Posted about 1 year ago
What Do Elvis Presley, Flaming Lips, Jay-Z, Frank Zappa, Korn, Billy Bragg, Joey Ramone, AC/DC and Buddy Holly have in common?They've all had streets named after them!Sometimes it's in their hometown, occasionally it's further afield where they're particularly adored for some altogether more specific reason.I'm trying to compile a comprehensive list of these honours, and was wondering if Moggers wanted to suggest a few they've come across.Any suggestions would be welcome, especially if you've any information as to how the re-naming came about...

  3. Jonh Ingham says Not to blow my own horn but why stop at a street? (Ingham St. in West Hampstead, btw.) No, I have a whole town! Ingham, Queensland, Australia. In my Mark Thatcher moments I think about taking it for my own kingdom.
