Uhuh, so I suppose you wouldn't vote for it...
Wigan? fair enough some brilliant music was played there at the casion but music actually from Wigan..... The Verve and Rick Astley?!
I've said it before and I'll say it again
The TANSADS were the best fucking band to come out of Wigan, bollocks to the fucking verve. The verve supported the Tansads!!!! As did Pulp!
And Rick Astley's from St Helens
Nashville for country and rock and roll, New Orleans for Jazz and Blues. I would add Lonnie Johnson to the list of New Orleans greats. You have to admire the musical stature and culture of a city that can spawn Louis Armstrong, Lonnie Johnson and Jelly Roll Morton. Hugely important virtuoso types and all coming from the same small town around the same time.

Well obviously. But Glasgow is in there on some weird fucked-up reasoning.
I find it hard to vote on this. Chicago for the blues, indie labels and clubs or Nashville cos I love the honky-tonk.
New York and London have a case but for every gem we've had a score of pieces of overhyped shite thrust upon us.

I agree, and Bristol
confused and Glasgow can fuck off when places like Paris and Melbourne exist.Seems that posters from particular towns (sic) upped their local music scene to a point way way beyond dreaming and influenced the final poll so that's why there are so many joke options on it.

Melbourne
It's hard to choose for me, but I put New york just cos Sonic Youth are from there and they made one of my top five albums ever.

Gone for Ny. Birth place of hip hop and enough other musical attarction to just about keep detroit and london in 2nd and third place.
Shocked and disserpointed that theres no seattle and no LA. Not that i would have voted for either of em mind but they would round out my personal top 5.

I still don't understand how New Orleans can measure up to New York, or Detroit.

and the whole White Panther thing with The Stooges and all hat which was admittedly AnnArbor/Ysililanti but those places are quicker to get to from downtown Detroit than it is to get across London
