EDIT: Turns out I got confused because of something I read about Black Flag refusing to play in Florida. *facepalm*

i googled black flag and florida and saw that there is a mexican gang there called Black Flag :)

Okay here's mine. There were a few states where I just couldn't come up with anything. I have to say I'm a little surprised one of them was West Virginia—I figured there'd be some bluegrass musician I liked from there but I found nothing.

Alabama—Sun Ra
Alaska
Arizona—Machines of Loving Grace
Arkansas—Johnny Cash
California—Mike Patton maybe? It's way too hard to choose.
Colorado—DeVotchKa
Connecticut—Mates of State
Delaware—Cab Calloway
Florida—Death
Georgia—REM
Hawai'i—Taj Mahal
Idaho—DoseOne
Illinois—My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult
Indiana—Racebannon
Iowa—The Everly Brothers
Kansas—Charlie Parker
Kentucky—Loretta Lynn
Louisiana—Professor Longhair
Maine—Alias
Maryland—Trans Am
Massachusetts—They Might Be Giants
Michigan—Stevie Wonder
Minnesota—Bob Mould
Mississippi—Howlin' Wolf
Missouri—Chuck Berry
Montana—Steve Albini
Nebraska—The Faint
Nevada—7 Seconds
New Hampshire—Torrez
New Jersey—Dalek
New Mexico
New York—Swans
North Carolina—John Coltrane
North Dakota—Bobby Vee
Ohio—Devo
Oklahoma—Flaming Lips
Oregon—The Decemberists
Pennsylvania—Man Man
Rhode Island—Lightning Bolt
South Carolina–James Brown
South Dakota
Tennessee—His Hero Is Gone
Texas—Scratch Acid
Utah
Vermont—Phish (I don't even like them but they're the only Vermont band I can think of so I guess they're my "favorite")
Virginia—Pig Destroyer
Washington—The Microphones
West Virginia
Wisconsin—Violent Femmes
Wyoming

Heh. I just discovered that Jewel was born in Utah and grew up in Alaska so that actually covers two of the hard states. If you happen to like Jewel.

RENO HardxCore represented :)

and James named Zoinks! :)

Reno is the only city for music in Nevada!

Well Vegas is where music goes to die so you're probably right. :D

So lazy, apparently, that some of those dots are in Canada and Mexico.

I'd cut off my left nut just to hang out with Zorn.

You're American, just ignore them like you usually do.
