Geocache Description:

burning_down_the_house.jpg

Nano container with log only. Located near a local establishment that burned down in 2007.

This is the eigth in a series of Freeport Classic Rock caches. On this day of hiding caches, it seemed appropriate to name our caches after some of the classic rock songs that we grew up listening to. Even our 16 year old cacher was familiar with most of these songs...that's what makes them "classic". This cache is in honor of the classic rock song "Burning Down the House". "Burning Down the House" is a 1983 song by Talking Heads, from their album Speaking in Tongues. It became their highest-charting hit single in North America, reaching #9 on the US Charts and #8 in Canada in the year of its release. Outside of North America, however, it was not a hit. In the UK, where Talking Heads would release 14 charting singles, it failed to make the charts at all, and in Australia it peaked at a very modest #94. Enjoy the find!!
