Yes, it would appear that Gnome Garments are very similar around the world Barbara.

ACDC Lane is named as a tribute to the famous Australian rock and roll band AC/DC and was given permission to do so by a unanimous vote of the Melbourne City Council. They actually started their career living and working in Melbourne.

To quote: "In the book AC/DC Maximum Rock & Roll, manager Michael Browning says: "If it hadn't been for Melbourne, AC/DC wouldn't have existed. There wasn't enough of a support system anywhere else in the country [p93].

The brothers Malcolm and Angus might have been born in Scotland but make no mistake, without Melbourne there would be no AC/DC."

The band has close ties Melbourne, so it was deemed only fitting that these legends of rock and roll were given a laneway in Melbourne. This area is situated in the bar and rock district of the city.
