Saw Peter Hook perform Unknown Pleasures live last night, ended up in a drunken conversation about fictional places. First thing I thought about when I woke this morning and it's bugging the shit out of me that I can't come up with many. Here's some I remember from last night, add on.

August Bank Holiday Island
Cloud City
Bongo Congo
Candy Apple Island
Kromagg Prime
Shady Pines
Tannhauser Gate

    Reminds me of my university which has a building nicknamed the Death Star. And reminds me of when I was in DC and Shady Grove was a stop on the Metro.

    Valhalla. I guess it's because I was a fan of Wagner's Ring Cycle.

    Valhalla is a top golf course in the USA located in Louisville, where the 2009 Ryder Cup was held.

    Hell

    It exists. Small town in Norway. Surprisingly they have not capitalized on tourist-trade.

    There's a Hell, Michigan. Not much tourism there, either.

    Too bad - I posted a link to a zombie festival a motorcycle club there puts on.

    I'm talking about the Hell with the Debbil and the worms and the Lake of Shit, though.

    I did yeah, It's kind of watered down though as you can imagine. The crowd did not boogie, which weirded us out no end.
