I think all of the proposals should have theme songs.
for the entire thread - "Where do we go from here"
Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

F2F 2: Is there anybody here that hasn't slept together?
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!

Ann, that's a ferret.
I think all of the proposals should have theme songs.
Several cities already do:
New Orleans -- Has plenty. I vote Gary "U.S." Bonds's "New Orleans" for the sax riff.
KC -- Wilbert Harrison vs. the song from Oklahoma!
Memphis -- Gotta be Johnny Rivers.
Cleveland -- Well, all I got is the Drew Carey theme song.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
For KC, I nominate Love Child.
For Minneapolis, I'm thinking Mambo #5.
For New Orleans... How about the theme to the Wombles?
No. Scrap that. For New Orleans, it must be The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins.

While I think Atlanta would be a great place for an F2F, I don't think is can possibly count as "central."
eta: The Atlanta theme song would have to be the state song, which is the Ray Charles version of "Georgia on My Mind."

For Minneapolis, I'm thinking Mambo #5.
Oh, thank you for that earworm, billytea. Really.
I vote for the Replacements' "I Will Dare" as the Minneapolis theme song.

Too Many Songs. "Jambalya" maybe "The Feeling of Jazz"

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
"Mardi Gras Mambo"?
"Do You Know What It Means to Miss New Orleans"?

Yes, Atlanta and Toronto are fairly far east. Both have come up in discussion here. I assume that if they are too far east then they won't make the cut to the final four.

Prince. "Let's Go Crazy."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think NO should have House Of The Rising Sun.
