I did a bunch of music-related touristing in London. I went to Regent's Street to find the Ziggy Stardust album cover shot location, since Bowie basically saved my musical taste when I was a rebellious teen. Also, Waterloo bridge & station (Waterloo Sunset) - I know there's more to The Kinks than that, but it made me so so happy even by myself.

I'm kind of hoping to go to Manchester just to be where the whole madchester scene was (Joy Division is part of my musical holy trinity...  Lou Reed, David Bowie and Ian Curtis).

I'm a bit embarrassed I didn't get to the Rough Trade shop in London.. I went to Earls Court to see the police public call box instead.  :-*

Not made any pilgrimages but great to see you have travelled throughout Salford where I grew up and Manchester to follow your passion. You will find Salford folk very friendly and hospitable. I work with a lady from London who says we're much friendlier 'up north.'
