Wow, solid Tragically Hip choice. Can’t argue with that.
Two Canadian bands and one “honourary” Canadian (Neko Case). Things are kind of tilted against Pittsburgh, though this is a city vs a country so it’s not really a fair fight. Still I can’t think of a band from Pittsburgh… hmm, google tells me the city claims Christina Aguilera and Wiz Khalifa. I still can’t think of a band from Pittsburgh.
