Yes, please do. If they're allowed to claim London = England, we get to claim the entire punk scene from Washington DC in the 80s. And of course Seattle in the 90s.

Coldplay and Wham! both count as negatives. London is now losing stature!

Pedro, I hope you have some good fractal software to watch while you're tripping your face off.

The Stranglers came from Guildford, Surrey, that's just a stone throw away from London (I used to take train from Guidlford to my work in London all the time).

If Ped is allowed to claim london = England, he'd have the beatles. In which case you could have the rest of the world(excluding classical) and you'd still be behind.
