Get out the map
Listening to "Dust in the Wind" by Kansas earlier, it got me thinking about geographically-named bands. I know there are lots, but were any really really good? I feel like if your name is a city or a country or something, chances are you were a mediocre 70s or 80s band. The ones I could come up with:
Kansas (as mentioned)
Chicago
Boston
New York Dolls
LA Guns
Alabama
Little Texas (Kia informs me that this is a country group)
More?
We could get into songs with geographic references, but that could take a while.

I got nothing.
Good analysis. If you name yourself after a place...you will suck. Correlation and causality all wrapped into one.
All I could come up with is Miami Sound Machine...
but they kinda sucked.
