Talking 75 bands

Look at the picture & list the bands you see, be careful as there are a few that double up on the same image. Give others ideas where the band is by telling what part of the picture they are. Have fun as there are some very hard ones

3. White Zombie (middle left)
4. White Snake (Below right of Virgin Digital Logo)
5. Blur (next to girl in bondage middle right)
6. Alice in Chains (next to blurred guy middle right)

Get the idea, only 69 more to go, continue the numbers down & no repeating

This is gonna keep me up all night. Let's have a look at the fruit stand.

30. Corn
31. Red hot chili peppers
32. Lemonheads
33. Blind Melon (hence the shades)

Other than that I spot

34. Manic Street Preachers (in white, above queens head)
35. Dinosaur JR (Behind the queens behind)
36. Yellowman (beneith the shop sign)
37. Crowded House (the windows behind the eagles)


Then there are a few I'm uncertain about, so correct me if I'm wrong

38. Carpenters (I think I see a hammer in the hand of one of the guys on the roof top)
39. Phish (In the bowl)
40. Deep Purple (The building is purple, and it is deep in the background?)

Already spotted that one C.

Can we change 47 to apply to "The Police" (the two officers beneith the left rolling stone)


Then I'd like to make general guesses about certai objects that I'm uncertain of. If anyone feel confident about affirming them, please do so with a number, OK?!

The sewage has some sort of tentacles comming out of it, I'm thinking "Urban Slug" but it just desn't seem right. Then the sky, it is "Pink" isn't it? I don't know if one thing can be several bands, but if so the gorillas can also be called "The Monkeys", right?
Then there are a number of objects I can't see well enough or simply can't connect to a band. I'll list them just incase someone hasn't spotted them. There is the diamond neckless under the fruit-n-veg stand (next to some boxes containing a number of hard to identify things. Then there are the Acrobats (anyone heard of such a band?), the guitar case carrying mafioso guys, the three superhero:ish girls, the lezzis by the lamp post and above them a number of boards painted in different colors, the guy with the beatbox on the crosswalk, the inflatable doll in the shop window. Around the cowboys there is some graffiti saying ?BGG or BOG or B06 and in the window something that looks like the brady bunch? And what is that black thing behind the lamp post beneith the flag? And what's whith the mountain, the giant tea spoon and the car jam? Is that a shark on the advertisment behin the yellow man? And what about the bubble-gum girl above the virgin sign?

Well, hope I've woken your curiosity, let's get this thing solved now.

69. Whitesnake (on the traffic lights)
50. Kiss (under the snake)
51. Korn (between the melons & the lemons)

That's all I'm prepared to look for, for now. This hurts the eyes.

Gnowze! Nice to see you... ...get to use the computer at the nut-house.

Sorry to say I already spotted Korn (even though I've misspelled it, no.30) and Tiff gave us White Snake at no.4. So I'll just go ahead and put Kiss (well spotted there BTW) in at no.49.

I've been sitting with this all night now and I think I have some new ones.

50. Pink (the sky is most definitly that color)
51. Nine Inch Nails (the pile behind the prince's behind [thought that was straws for a very long time])
52. The Bee Gees (the writing on the wall, could also be enterpreted BiGGie as in Biggie Smalls)
53. Spoon (the great spoon, turns out there is a band called that)
54. Cypress Hill (the hill with the tree. I was going for Big Mountain but the tree set me straight)
55. The Killers (The mafioso guys. I'm uncertain about this but they do look like hitmen)
56. The Sex Pistols (the d!ld* guns of the queen, can't see how I missed that one)

They don't let us near live electronics in here, but fortunately one of the patients thinks she's a computer and another thinks he's a modem. Whenever I get them together, I'm able to come in here to be the thorn in the shoe of this happy little community.

Anyway...

57. Radiohead (How did we miss that one?)
58. Jewel (to the right of the fysh)

Took me less than a minute to spot these, then spent another 20 finding nothing.

61. The Cars, or perhaps, Traffic?
62. Twisted Sister(s)? - The acrobats
63. The Runaways - The three chicks running between #'s 21 and 22
64. Blondie - Blowing a bubble on the fire escape over the Virgin digital sign
65. The Faces/Small faces - on The Monitors
66. Cranberries - in the crates next to Jewel

What's the deal with the mailman and the mailbox? I just can't connect it to a band. And, there just has to be Concrete Blonde and Gene loves Jezebel in there somewhere, don'tcha think?

Also, the big coin clearly says "Half Dollar" on the bottom, I think it's for Fifty Cent.

70. Wings (on several birds)
71. Hammerfall (smashing the pumpkins, swedish metal band)
72. Pavement (here and there)
73. The Boxtops (OK, it's far fetched but still the boxes are stacked on top of each other)


Well spotted on the doors there Rory, may I suggest that they are a case of "Colour me bad" as well, and were it not for the fact that there are 4 of them you could say that there are "Three doors down"
