To Birdgirl: Sorry for hijacking this forum but I can't give you a rep right now. That wasn't your wedding. Oh, and to everyone, a few of the bands I listed are actually from a few miles away.

Now you see the famous people associated with my city, the question is, what's my city?

That'd be St. Louis, Missouri, right? Scott Joplin, Mark Twain and Ulysses S. Grant were the three that gave it away for me.

No problem JD1stTimer. No, that wasn't my wedding on the courthouse lawn. I grew up in one of those big houses along Oak Street not far from the NT campus. The reception was in the back yard, which I'm sure was troubling to the neighborhood, but everyone in Denton is accustomed to bands playing. That was before Brave Combo was as famous. I got married in 1983, long before you were there, I'm sure.

NOT TRUE! I've been a Dentonite since 1980! I just didn't know anyone back then.

Yep, you got it. Thanks for the welcome back, btw, Birdgirl.

Luke Jordan (mega-kudos/cookies to anyone who knows who he is)

Gomoroah (A fairly good band, good chance of breaking big in the hardcore scene)

Ghost of a fallen age (Great local band, almost sure fire chance of breaking into the music scene in a big way, internationally Id bet)

Dismembering something or other (see above)

Jerry Falwell (Eww... I try not to hate anyone, but its hard not to hate him).
