BosGuy brain teaser

riddle, exercise for your brainEach Friday morning I post a riddle to get you to think outside the box and exercise your brain. If you are stumped, share it with a friend or colleague and see if you can figure out the answer together.

This week’s riddle came from the popular NPR Sunday Puzzle by Will Shortz. I’ve included two hints below the teaser which you can read if you need extra help figuring out the correct response.

This week’s brain teaser:  Name a well-known, U.S. city in two words (5, 3). Change the first letter of the second word and you will come up with the name of a popular rock group. What is the name of the city and the rock group?

Here are two hints: The U.S. city is in the Midwest and the rock group achieved fame in the 1990s
