Thought it may be “fun” to try smaller-scale/hyperlocal takes on this thread’s original concept—in this case, starting at the ocean and heading east:
Santa Monica - Everclear
West L.A. Fadeaway - Grateful Dead
Beverly Hills - Circle Jerks
West of Hollywood - Steely Dan
Hollywood - Rufus & Chaka Khan
Los Angeles - X
East L.A. - War
Pomona - Hi Fi Killers
etc....
