New Wave Location Game

Postby ExRat » Mon Mar 22, 2004 4:02 am

Here's a list of bands that share a titled commonality; they are all named after a specific real location or a location is somewhere in the title. Can you think of any more? Same rules as the 'New Wave Color Game.' They have to be from the 'classic' era of the 1970's or 1980's and at least marginally fall into the New Wave or sub-genre category (no Boston, Asia, or Europe.)

Berlin
Chelsea
Warsaw
Danzig
London
Japan
Half Japanese
Eyeless in Gaza
UK Decay
UK Subs
Mission UK
English Beat
Modern English
China Crisis
New York Dolls
Angry Samoans
Holly and the Italians
Roman Holliday
When in Rome
Robyn Hitchcock and the Egyptians
Xmal Deutschland

OK, OK, OK, I DO have way too much time on my hands today. I'm sure there are probably many more though.

Australian Crawl
1000 Mexicans
Berlin Blondes
Venetians (the planet or city?)
Big In Japan

BTW, I think Mission UK shouldn't count. They are really known as simply The Mission just about everywhere except in the U.S., where, evidently, there was a

Ok, I just thought of two more:

D.A.F. (Deutsche Amerikanische Freundschaft)
Pearl Harbour and the Explosions

Frayo, CCCP definitely does count. But 'ABC' and 'Living in a Box'? I don't know, that's a little suspect[;)]
