Landmarks Tours

Christie Road

A deserted road off Highway 4 inspired the fan favourite 'Christie Road' from Kerplunk. It’s also one of Mike’s favourite songs. He and Billie Joe hung out there with friends and smoked weed.
Close to the highway, it’s still noisy and exposed, but only a few minutes down the road there’s undisturbed silence. Despite the nearby refinery, the air is clear. Occasionally a train rolls by. It’s easy to see why it was such a beloved refuge for the band.
For many fans, it’s not only a favourite song, but a favourite landmark.
