Mark Knopfler is definitely from Newcastle, he put a lot of the money he made from DS into building a world class music school in Newcastle because he grew up in Newcsatle skint and wanting access to music stuff

Which is cool as fuck

Formed in London, though. That's good enough for me.

Cliff was involved in a sexual act? No way, it was the immaculate conception.

How about Guns N' Roses, with Slash as a product of London and Stoke?
