Thread: Explain Your Location

A reference to Linkin Park's Burning In The Skies. It would be 'Swimming in the smoke of bridges I have burned', but I didn't have enough room.

Well, I live in Central California, technically, the Central Coast. But Central California sounds better than Central Coast of California.

The ridiculously infectious chorus of the song Shots Fired by Slash, Myles Kennedy, and the Conspirators has the line 'They wanna see me in a blood-soaked grave'. Guess they got their wish.

Reference to the "A Song Of Ice And Fire" series by George R.R. Martin.

It's a place that was mentioned in Doctor Who last series and I'm guessing it'll be important in the next series.

My name is Red, so it felt natural to make my location Mt. Silver

Globus Hystericus is possibly my favorite song from Lullabies For The Dormant Mind. Interesting fact: the words 'Globus Hystericus' mean absolutely nothing and are not mentioned in the song's lyrics.

Xanadu is the title of a song by Rush on the album A Farewell To Kings, about a man who's searching for a lost city that grants him immortality, before realizing the consequences of what he's done.

Between The Hammer And The Anvil is yet another Judas Priest song. From Painkiller this time.

Exactly where it says! Because I like warm places and my friends' beds always seem warmer and safer than my own.

I've had an awesome AMV idea to Bon Jovi's "Living on a Prayer", one involving Team Taiyo from Yu-Gi-Oh! 5d's. Since my avatar is Jin from Team Taiyo, I thought it would be oddly appropriate.

Rage City. Direct translation from La Ciudad de la Furia, one of my favourite songs. Take a look, it's a great song =)

I connect this with the discarded concept of Lake of Rage as a city (retrieved as unused beta data) in original G/S, and related to Gyarados, one of my favourite Pokémon.

My custom user title (Winged man prefers night) is another verse of the same song, Un hombre alado prefiere la noche

"In the eye of the tornado" is a reference to the Megadeth classic Tornado Of Souls, as it is a repeated line in the chorus.

It's (almost) exactly where I live: Nevada in the United States. Didn't bother putting the city. XD I'm so original.

1982 California is more or less when and where the thrash metal scene was born.
