Just a little tidbit of information for those Kate Bush fans that are 
interested ...

As an avid rock climber and Kate Bush fan, I was suprised to come across a 
5.8 crack climb called Kate's Bush in the Joshua Tree National Monument 
climbing guide (for those who don't know 5.x rates the difficulty of the 
climb, going from 5.1 to 5.14d).  Apparently, there is a large bush growing
out of the rock somewhere along the climb, hence the name.  I haven't climbed
it yet, but I will next time I go to Joshua Tree just to say I did.  Whether
or not you question the appropriateness of the name, I thought readers of this 
group might find it good for a chuckle.  Go to your local climbing shop and 
check the route index in the guide if you want to see for yourself.  Later

I.
