Took me some time because of the whole "tube" thing. Could it be Velvet Underground?

I'm liking this game, Jane!

Plus adding a guess or two.
Toilet Lecrure = Loo Read = Lou Reed

I'm pretty sure that Steal a bear's lair has something to do with ROB and DEN. But I don't know any bands called ROBDEN or any artist called ROB DEN. Maybe someone else knows.

On UFO's I was thinking Flying Saucers. I looked it up and it seems there is a band from Bristol named that.

Rory K STAFF · #14 12-04-2006, 02:59 AM

7 is the 3 degrees

4 is Bucks Fizz

and guessing that 10 is Cher

and 25 is Roxy Music

but I have to say that my absolute favourite is Nuclear Pussy - but i wonder will it last for ever?

I was gonna post originally when Jane first posted these up, but wasn't sure whether to or nto as I'm no good at these. The only one I thought of was 25. UFO. I can't actually think of the groups name, but they release that Michael Jackson song. It's something like Alien something or other. I forget exactly. Anyone know who I mean. They did the music video where the group members all dance along the path (sidewalk) and the paving slabs all light up when they're stepped on them. If I remember correctly, there is also a monkey in the video possibly with a nappie (Diper) on

Come on people, help me out with this groups name will ya

**Jane N STAFF** · #16 12-04-2006, 10:25 AM

The band your thinking of jason is Alien ant farm. And thats not the right answer

jay290783 · #17 12-05-2006, 06:04 AM

Really? Well I think that's just plain evil then. Well that's my participation on this thread well and truly stuffed

Jerry M STAFF · #18 01-12-2007, 12:32 AM
