"Hey, Kansas City! You have hard water!" A simple and blatant tactic for pandering to your audience is to simply state the location where they live. Live performers, especially during a tour, will often open their performance by saying, "Hello, [city name]!" Certain commercials will try to target specific cities by addressing the viewer as the city, regardless of whether they're a tourist or only live close to the city. Naturally, a Sub-Trope of Shout-Out. Compare Cheap Heat, when a pro wrestler talks about the city to appeal to or rile up the local fans, and Listing Cities, when several cities are mentioned during the song to cause this effect. If the performer doesn't know the name of the city they're playing in, it may be a warning sign they've had too much Sex, Drugs, and Rock & Roll. |

In "Ambition" (a spoof of "Tradition", the opening number of Fiddler on the Roof), there's a line that on the cast album goes, "But here in our little village of Manhattan, there are over 50,000 actors, all trying their best not to end up in Baltimore." When on tour, "Baltimore" usually gets changed to the town they are performing in. | |

Bottom: Subverted. In one of the Live stage shows, taped in Southend, Eddie claims to have been born in Southend. "Whyever did you leave?" cries Richie. "I found the railway station," replies Eddie. Later on during an ad-lib storm Rik Mayall drops out of character to say something along the lines of, "Let's hurry up and get back to the script or we'll never get out of fucking Southend!" In a later show being performed in Nottingham, the duo suddenly realise that they are on stage at the mercy of a feral Nottingham audience. Richie assures Eddie that he 'speaks the lingo' of the audience and will soon have them eating out of his hand... And then launches into a series of barely unintelligible grunts and every other syllable is 'fuck'. |

The Simpsons: In "Flaming Moe's", as Aerosmith starts to perform at Moe's, Steven Tyler yells "Hello, St. Louis!", before being corrected by Joe Perry. "The Otto Show": The Spinal Tap members use this to rev up the Springfieldians, though David St. Hubbins needs the name of the town taped to the back of his guitar to remember it, and when they're forced to end the set he says "Good night, Springton" by mistake. One of the chalkboard gags read, "I will not say 'Springfield' just to get applause". "New Kids on the Blecch": A quartet of students overtly engineered to be the "Party Posse" boy band debuts on the stage of the Springfield Elementary auditorium. The following follows: "How I Spent My Strummer Vacation": Discussed by Mick Jagger, who advises the rock star wannabes that they always have to compliment the city they are playing in. In "Trash Of the Titans", Homer interrupts a U2 concert in Springfield so he can promote his campaign for Springfield's Sanitation Commissioner. |

When on tour, "Baltimore" usually gets changed to the town they are performing in. "Look Around (The Schuyler Puppets)" had the cast sing about "all the new shows happening in New York, we said New York..." then they look at how "yucky" the shows are and go "New Yuck!" (Chris Anthony Giles makes a "finger to mouth to cause vomiting motion" in some of the clips of this song being performed.) |
