The Sunset Strip itself could EASILY be a Patreon Episode!!! For the music & club scene alone From Go Go Dancers to Glam Rock, the songs "25 or 6 to 4" (by Chicago) & "For What It's Worth" (by Buffalo Springfield) were written about & on Sunset Punk, New Wave, Grunge, Hair Metal, all had their time on The Strip. Lemmy has a statue at the Rainbow, he frequented there so much until he died. Also where River Phoenix overdosed at The Viper Room, which was co-owned by Johnny Depp at the time... it's an absolutely WILD Two Miles!!! There are a few decent documentaries or biopics that tell a lot of the tales, could easily be two or three episodes worth of GREAT stories! Wikipedia here covers maybe a 10th of the tales: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunset_Strip?wprov=sfla1
