Crap, I'm pretty sure I heard about someone who's famous and in some band coming from my town and going to my school (Yorktown, NY, if anyone knows) but I forget who, and don't want to embarrass myself with stupid guesses, and I'm too lazy to look it up. I'll get back to you if I do manage to summon enough energy to make another tab and move the cursor all the way up to the google search bar.

Ray Winstone went to my secondary school (high school for my cousins across the pond), I think he was born in Hackney and then moved to Enfield, the borough where I live (Edmonton, which is a part of it).
