I think we can give Mississippi to Elvis - he spent his first 13 years there, I think that's fair.

There's tons of talented artists that were born and raised in Missy (yeah, I looked it up, and the list is like a who's who), but by far, more people know the name Elvis.
 
Not over yet. See above. Your posts in red will be ignored by the self appointed score keeper (me). Let's give others (namely me and Rick) more of a chance. :cool:
Bite me! :sqlaugh:

Wyoming Teenage Bottlerocket
 
Teenage Bottlerocket :sqconfused: -- would that be a widely recognized national or international act...?

If I've never heard of these people, in my decades in this business -- they don't count.
It's Wyoming .. it's all they got ...

Hmmm, didn't realize they had nothing but open sky up there.


I wonder if we could count Dick (you, know, the Cheney dude). I think he whistled while he shot his lawyer friend... :sqlaugh:
 
Never heard of the dude -- epic fail.


Jo Jo, Shawn Colvin -- who the hell are they?
Shawn Colvin was big .. won 3 Grammys (1991 - best folk album and 1998 - record and song of the year pop/rock) plus 7 more nominations.

Sorry -- never heard of the dude...

John Denver, on the other hand, I remember :)
