Although I love the lineup in London, they have some of the greatest names in music history, the Philly cast is more of today's top 10 music. Of all the acts in London only three have had a top 10 American hit in the last few years by my estimate. In Philly, 12 of the acts have had a top 5 hit in the U.S. in the past three years. And three, Wil Smith, Black Eyed Peas and Ludacris all currently have top 10 hits. But I own far more albums of the acts in London which shows my music taste, Coldplay, The Killers, Sting, U2, Snow Patrol, Keane.
