A member of the public wanted to know something about an alternative rock band that she followed. It didn&#8217;t matter who she was or where she lived. She asked and I indulged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bethany Curve<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The band was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bethanycurve.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bethany Curve<\/a>. So she was trying to find the actual Bethany Curve. No, not the band specifically but the geographic feature which lent its name to the band.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Bethany_Curve\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">According to Wikipedia<\/a>, members of the band &#8220;<em>saw a local street sign reading &#8216;Bethany Curve&#8217; and decided amongst themselves it would make be perfect name for their recently formed band<\/em>&#8221; in 1994. That source and others noted that the band came out of Santa Cruz, California. Thus it doesn&#8217;t take a genius to drop the information into one of the map websites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/embed?pb=!4v1625789614005!6m8!1m7!1saf_qIXyWdZflxdKmyTYrqg!2m2!1d36.95839893826444!2d-122.0406825531018!3f358.4174340422021!4f-6.910000855284935!5f0.7820865974627469\" style=\"border:0;\" allowfullscreen=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sure enough, there is a Bethany Curve in Santa Cruz. Unfortunately Google Street View doesn&#8217;t travel down it yet. We&#8217;ll have settle for peering down its length from a larger street instead. It looks like a completely nondescript suburban drive. Open the page in map view and observe its composition: a single block straight section, a break, and then a two block curved section. The larger portion forms the western boundary of a really interesting section of streets. They align in concentric circles that kind-of reminded me of <a href=\"\/blog\/?p=2355\">Corona&#8217;s Corona<\/a> in miniature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Coincidence<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Holy Smokes! I just read the first comment on that Corona&#8217;s Corona page from reader &#8220;Jesse.&#8221; and my response to him. The link he provided and my mapping of it go directly to the same neighborhood in Santa Cruz containing Bethany Curve! I swear I didn&#8217;t know that before I started typing this article. At the time I even mentioned Bethany Curve and I never even made the mental connection. Maybe it&#8217;s been lodged in my subconscious since September 2009? I also wonder if Jesse may have been a Bethany Curve fan. Maybe that&#8217;s how he discovered the circular geographic feature? Either that or this is one of the more bizarre coincidences of geo-oddities I&#8217;ve encountered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This article took a completely unexpected, um&#8230; curve, but let&#8217;s see if we can get it back on track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Retreading Ground<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Several other writers already explored the bands as geography theme rather extensively, as I&#8217;ve discovered. This hasn&#8217;t been done by the geo-community but by the music community. Here are a couple of sites that you can enjoy on your own time for your amusement. Open them in another tab if you like and come back after reading them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Horrible Bands Named after Places: Music from Hell and Elsewhere<\/li><li>Set Yr Sights: 20 Bands Named After Places<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>[<em><strong>UPDATE<\/strong>: Unfortunately both are no longer available on the Internet<\/em>]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As an aficionado of geo-oddities, I prefer bands that derive their inspiration from the most obscure locations. I&#8217;m not endorsing them musically &#8212; which is absolutely irrelevant for my purposes &#8212; so I&#8217;m simply referring to their geographic association.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/thomashawk\/31345085405\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/5797\/31345085405_fea3e599f6_b.jpg\" alt=\"Sweet Home Alabama.

Or states (Alabama, Kansas) Or even huge multinational swaths of land (Asia, Europe, America, Arctic Monkeys). I see no challenge trying to find a map of Alabama as an example. So I&#8217;ll put them in the discard pile with no disrespect intended to either the fans or the residents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Linkin Park<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>How about something a bit more out-of-the-ordinary like Linkin Park? The name hearkens to a geographic feature known originally as Lincoln Park which is now Christine Emerson Reed Park in Santa Monica, California.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/embed?pb=!4v1625790414581!6m8!1m7!1s0mHu6z-iGFs-Zyh7of8qUg!2m2!1d34.02297572698833!2d-118.4968632422617!3f125.29121223632488!4f4.520749079106707!5f0.7820865974627469\" style=\"border:0;\" allowfullscreen=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Holy Smokes #2. Again, I didn&#8217;t know this until just this moment, but I&#8217;ve been there! My wife had a business trip to Santa Monica several years ago and I took a week off from work to join her. My son, who was a toddler at the time, and I had a great few days <a href=\"\/blog\/?p=22585\">touring around the Los Angeles area together<\/a>. I took my baby to the playground at Linkin Park! I just informed him of his extremely tenuous brush with fame and he had absolutely no idea what I was talking about, as he stuck his face back into his Nintendo DS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Marcy Playground<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Let&#8217;s try one more. The band Marcy Playground got its name from the grounds of the Marcy Open School in Minneapolis, Minnesota.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/embed?pb=!4v1625790758670!6m8!1m7!1s6FWZeweuiSPzvCsubleG6w!2m2!1d44.98746825912943!2d-93.2500424137804!3f213.8776657496926!4f-2.1518228999839835!5f0.7820865974627469\" style=\"border:0;\" allowfullscreen=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have absolutely no connection with this location. Thankfully the weird coincidences ended here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have any favorite musical groups that are named after geographic locations, please reply in the comments below with a map link. Your challenge is to try to toe the fine line between a band so obscure that nobody has ever heard of it and a band so renowned that the geography becomes irrelevant.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The idea started, as it often does, with a random search engine query recorded in my web logs.
