Don't know anything about it beyond it being the site of a UW campus. That campus also served as the training camp home of Katie, a Princess's KC Chiefs for a time, too.

What? No mention of Winona's first prominent spermblaster, Dave Pirner?


My thinking was along the lines of Polly Six's reply: after these three, why list more? Note: Dave Pirner is far from the most embarassing musician to have called MN home.

Not really sure but I think he's an extra on the GNR song/video for T2 before he made it big because he was one of Axl's friends from home or something like that. I remember hearing that.

Start with Bob Willis and his TX Playboys, seque into Buddy Holly, and that's not a bad start.

He's not from Florida? I knew a guy who grew up in Miami and saw The Spooky Kids years ago.

Don't forget all those 70s funk bands:
O'Jays
Lakeside
Ohio Players

Also, Minnesota is missing Husker Du.
