the 80's rock homage musical
Rock of Ages, which takes place on the sunset strip, centered around a club known as the bourbon room, (a thinly disguised whiskey), is currently being filmed in........................(unfortuantely not west hollywood), but in the spirit of mildred pierce, (peekskill ny), and ask the dust, (south africa)................ the overtown neighborhood of miami fl.
and of course, as there are no hollywood type hills in south florida, where else does one put up the hollywood sign in flatland?
why a landfill along the turnpike in pompano beach, (affectionately referred to by locals as mount trashmore)
