 I'm never going to stop laughing at that.

Well technically Clutch is from Germantown/Gaithersburg, but since both those towns are in the same county I grew up in (I lived in Silver Spring) and I went to high school with a guy who played on their original demo... I guess I claim them.

I'm from St. Pete, Florida, which can be expanded to include Tampa, and I have no friggin' idea.  There was no one there while I was growing up, or no one who'd been from there.  
 
 Even Credence Clearwater Revival is from California, not Clearwater.
 
 Terrence Mann, who played Javert in the original broadway cast of Les Miserables, went to Largo High, the high school for my neighborhood.
 
 Apparently after I left there was quite a metal scene.

Olivia and Marty from Washington Social Club went to my college...

I hail from Toronto. and not from the suburbs either, i lived in the city proper.  and no, i didnt really "decide" to live there.
 
  my uncle lives in Massachusetts and i stayed with him a few summers, which is how i got to be a Red Sox/Bruins fan. and i did live there for 3 years once i moved to the states.
 
 (ha, i just noticed which smartass forumite is now "the cooler", you're very  funny)
