(1,622 posts)1. RATM were referring to Rodeo Drive, not Rodeo Road...
...based on the lyrics that state "these people ain't seen a brown-skin man since their grandparents bought one..."
There are plenty of brown-skinned people on Rodeo Road...

My only time in CA was up in the high desert, I didn't get down the pass to LA very often.
I thought that Rodeo stretched from one end to the other Beverly Hills to west LA - In St Louis it's pretty common for a long road to be a BLVD downtown and a road or street out in the suburbs
