Guess the City

Suzy's is Strasbourg (thank u Allmusic.com)

I would have preferred an honest to goodness J Cope fan to get that one, but jgo correct.

im very interested in 21

23: http://d.imagehost.org/0035/S645010.jpg

the first 2 guesses for 19 (iceland & newzealand) were way off in terms of miles, but they do share something in common with the place in question

I only have Fried of early-period Cope, I'm currently listening to Jehovahkill and Peggy Suicide also resides in my iTunes along with both Teardrop Explodes records. So bloody there.

23: Kent somewhere?

(And I just went through Fried listening out for clues! Ended up enjoying it too much to do so)

Not Kent

I'm just irritated that I've been called out as a non-Cope fan when I don't happen to have one of his albums, and yet generally get around to evangelising him when invited to name my favourite musics. Fucking NOBODY my age is a Cope fan, and yet I'm the one getting it in the neck? Jesus.

dude, nobody wants to give it to you in the neck

wtf?

23. Bristol?

Land Of Fear!!! Fried is a superb record, but it's trumped by its own bonus track, a jolly and upbeat yet subtly melancholy keyboard drift-along. The last coupla minutes are perfect.

DIGGING THE DRUDE 2 YEARS AGO

19 = Antanarivo?

Bristol it is not

is 21 lincoln, MT?

jgo = correct

missing a couple of letters tho

i feel no joy, only hollow irritation. you see, i'd actually started composing my defence of allmusic use ("i have 3 other Cope albums!") and then when I tried to post it Suzy had already gotten in there with the sly dig I had been attempting to repudiate. argh.

ok ok fine back to the cities

21 is not in MT, or in the US for that matter.

I have been on that bridge in Astoria, and I would never have guessed it. I am bad at this game.

you're not bad at this game--your picture is tough. is it in Canada? is it Moosejaw? is it?

xp I am, too, but mostly because I haven't even heard of half the cities people have chosen.

is 21 a city, looks like nowhere

21 has "City" in its very name.

yeah ive resigned myself to enjoying the narrowing-down, having no chance of off-the-bat success

dawson city

the two britishes ones are being quite elusive

You've got the right general idea, but no. xp

ok i dont know

but can we keep playing this tomorrow??

21: Uranium City, Saskatchewan?

20, 21 and 23 are the only ones not gotten thus far I think

Mackro OTM.

I really thought that one would be a gimme for jaymc.xls!

Is 23 London?

also apologies for that Julian Cope buttspazz, just that it's SO annoying when you're writing a disclaimer and someone ploughs in to condemn you first

now it's just 2 shitty English towns, I'm gonna call 20 as Leicester

24. http://www.kott.wmeyachtsltd.com/areainfo1.jpg

24. Phnom Peng. Next!

seriously though. somewhere in the NE US.

Baltimore, MD

23 *is* London. I thought no-one was going to guess it!

london = shitty english town done really badly ;-)

24 is not Baltimore

we need another picture--yr picture is 90% H20

Portsmouth?

no

24: Valencia, Spain
