This music type picture
So I got this picture here in a e-mail sent to me by Fiachra. It thought it was pretty cool so I decided to shre it with you guys. You may have seen it before but hadn't...until I did, the idea is that there are 75 bands represented in the photo.

December 02, 2005 9:45 AM
WHat about:
24) Ratt (It has to be why else would there be a rat there?)
December 02, 2005 9:46 AM

AJK
December 02, 2005 10:37 AM
Gorillaz, B-52s(adam just beat me to it), Spoon, Men without Hats...
December 02, 2005 10:41 AM
Green Day, The Cars, Blur, Great White, Dead Kennedys or Presidents of the United States,
with some i feel i know exactly what they are referring to, others (Cars, Menwithouthats) it seems like it might be a stretch
December 02, 2005 10:47 AM
Ahhh that's what those planes are! For the life I me I couldn't figure it out.
so we have:
25) B-52's
26) Korn
27) White Snake (damn I missed that?)
28) Blues Brothers
29) Green Day (where is that?)
30) The Cars
31) Gorillaz
32) Men without hats (where?)
33) Spoon (I knew that one but forgot)
34) Great White
35) Dead Kennedy's (just cause)
good job guys!
December 02, 2005 10:54 AM
36) Blind Melon (ha)
December 02, 2005 10:57 AM
green day is the calendar in the front left with a day...marked in green. Men without hats 'cause there are some dudes minus head coverings (might be a stretch). What is the deal with the two people right in the front in renaissance costume? i feel it should be obvious but i just can't think of what it might be right now.
I think there is a stuffed dinosaur in the front left - t-rex anyone? and I imagine Kiss is in there with the folks kissing
December 02, 2005 10:58 AM
I think part of the people in the front are The Sex Pistols, since the Queen is holding Dildo guns, which makes me nominate Queen as another one. Sheesh.
So...
37) Queen
38) T-Rex (I'm down with it)
39) Kiss
December 02, 2005 11:01 AM
ok, so it is a stuffed stegasaurus not a t-rex...too bad. But there is an Iron Maiden in the middle - rock on!
I could probably spend all day on this although I think i might need to use google to see if some things are actually bands or not.
Damn! i looked at that watermelon with glasses and couldn't think of it.
December 02, 2005 11:01 AM
Nine inch nails
December 02, 2005 11:02 AM
Talking Heads
Madonna
Postal Service
Crowded House (kinda looks like the people in the windows on the right are all smooshed in there)
December 02, 2005 11:06 AM
Lemon Heads
Cowboy Junkies
December 02, 2005 11:09 AM
Iron Maiden
Update the list Mark!!
December 02, 2005 11:11 AM
Eminem
Queen
Kiss
December 02, 2005 11:15 AM
could those things below the fruit stands on the right (on the orange crates) be The Cranberries?
December 02, 2005 11:18 AM
Blur
Deep Purple
Could you say that teh fellow in the front who has the guns pointed at him is "Disturbed"?? That might be a stretch though
AJK
December 02, 2005 11:21 AM
i certainly would be disturbed if someone was pointing dildo-pistols at me.
gotta run will check in later
December 02, 2005 11:23 AM
Whew!
Adam where is Nine Inch Nails?
Danielle just game us Prince!
(hah)
I got Phish (that gold fish)
I'll accept the Cranbarries (I think they are at least?) Removing TRex.
Also take a look at the diamiond necklace beside the crate, that's gotta be something too.
December 02, 2005 11:25 AM
Hey Adam, I'd say that Dude is Prince...?
December 02, 2005 11:27 AM
There are some nails close to the Princ's left leg. It is hard to say if they really are 9 inches long.
Do you think that the builing in the back is a "Deep Purple"??
What about the watermelon with sunglasses???
December 02, 2005 11:43 AM
Do you think that the stuff coming out of the sewer is could be considered a "Taproot"? They do look like roots
What about the oranges with smiley faces??
Adam.
December 02, 2005 11:45 AM
watermellon with sunglasses = Blind Melon
AJK
December 02, 2005 11:46 AM
Blur- guy on right
December 02, 2005 11:50 AM
Deep Purple, yeah I asked that before, but since that's two people I'll accept it, along with Nine Inch Nails.
Rodney got that BLur dude before, can't believe I missed that one.
Keep em comming, but check the list for ones we've already got dudes!
I'm guessing no for Taproot, just judging on the bands that they've picked so far...although I could be wrong?
December 02, 2005 12:05 PM
Puddle of Mud
December 02, 2005 12:11 PM
What about the two chicks making out behind the queens head?? What could that be??
December 02, 2005 12:13 PM
Hmm the two chicks I don't know...I was looking at that earlier, some with the guys in white? and that weird guy in yellow? Yellow Man? What is that?
I think that the puddle of Mudd that you refer to is actually a hole?
December 02, 2005 12:24 PM
Naw its a puddle of mud man... your call
AJK
December 02, 2005 12:40 PM
The black Crows (on the main street sign on the right)
AJK
December 02, 2005 12:41 PM
Cowboy Junkies
December 02, 2005 12:48 PM
It still looks like a hole to me? If anyone else has an opinion let me know.
W've got Cowboy Junkies, but The Black Crows is new!
51) The Black Crows
December 02, 2005 1:11 PM
Jewel for the necklace.
Yellow guy at left??
Anyone mention the Beach Boys with surf boards?
Angel beside Vi9rgin sign could be Gabriel, as in Peter Gabriel - extended to Genesis?!
December 02, 2005 1:13 PM
One of those old cars looks like a "Chevelle"
The sewer thing could be: "The Roots"
What about the girls all bent up on top of each other (pink and yellow)
A
December 02, 2005 1:16 PM
Jewel is bang on I think.
Beach Boys, I thought that two, but I was unsure becuase the rest of them were puns...what do you guys think?
I also used the angels as the pixies?
I keep thinking that Spandu Ballet is in there somewhere, but I could be crazy.
The Roots seems pretty good to me, but Chevelle seems like a stretch.
So what do you dudes think about:
52) Jewel
53) The Roots
pending aproval: The Beach Boys
What about those trees at the top? They have to be something too...
December 02, 2005 1:40 PM
I was thinking that those guys might be the beach boys but i am not sure. There are the trees up top, the yellow dude, the circus/gynast types in the middle, the choir (?) group dressed in white, the girl on the top left blowing a bubble (Blondie?). We have a pretty good list here so far, though.
December 02, 2005 2:20 PM
white snake
December 02, 2005 2:22 PM
styx, next to matchbox 20
December 02, 2005 2:26 PM
the dinosaur, small dinosaur that is represents dinosaur jr.
December 02, 2005 2:28 PM
no one got cypress hill???? come on kids!
December 02, 2005 2:30 PM
Ahh Cypress Hill! That's a good one.
Dinosaur Jr, I'll take that one.
We've label those things beside MatchBox 20 as being Nine-Inch Nails? I'm open to changing it but they look more like nails to me.
Well that's three people so we'll call them the Beach Boys.
I was also thinking Blondie, but I'm not sure what the bubble is all about?
so:
54) Cypress Hill
55) Dinosaur Jr.
56) The Beach Boys
Man I need to find some soon!
December 02, 2005 2:33 PM
corner shop
December 02, 2005 2:38 PM
manic street preachers (people in white?)
December 02, 2005 2:41 PM
how about audience (people in the window) and traffic- these are some of julio's favourites.
December 02, 2005 2:43 PM
the people could also be crowded house. and the dudes on the roof, maybe suicidal tendancies?
December 02, 2005 2:54 PM
twisted sister for the contortionists?
December 02, 2005 2:56 PM
the doors- those 4 coloured things?
December 02, 2005 2:59 PM
Hey dyl what about the three women holding hands and running from the rolling stone??
And the plastic dino to the left of the Queen??
Crowded House... Thats a good one
What about the chicks making out beside the yellow guy???
More questions than answers for me at this point
A
December 02, 2005 3:22 PM
Presidents of the United States of America = picture of kennedy and another ex pres on the wall by the yellow guy
AJK
December 02, 2005 3:38 PM
The Police = the cops in the back by the Chevelle
AJK
December 02, 2005 3:40 PM
The White Stripes = the crosswalk lines
AJK
December 02, 2005 3:51 PM
Hmm some more then:
Corner Shop - Check
Twisted Sister - Hmm I'm not sure?
The Doors - Check - Those are doors, they have handles
Manic Street Preachers - Check (looks good)
Traffice - Hmmm? Could be...
Audience - Seems a bit of a stretch, but I could be wrong, were they Brittish?
PUSA - We went with Dead Kennedys on that one Adam, seems to John and Robert
Police - We've got that one
The White Stripes - I'm down with that.
So:
57) Corner Shop
58) The Doors
59) Manic Street Preachers
60) The White Stripes
Any other classic brittish bands that we know? The Jame, The Clash
December 02, 2005 4:49 PM
I bet you the two girls making out are TATU.
December 02, 2005 5:18 PM
I can't nelieve I missed Dinosour Jr and the doors. Cyrpus Hill was a nice catch.
It looks like you can win a computer and a years worth of free music if you identify any of the 74 bands from the Virgin website - so I guess that means we won't find the answers until the contest is over (Open only to US residents)
December 02, 2005 5:44 PM
Actually if you look at the virgin website you'll see that we're missing a section of the picture, the section that identifies:
61) Cake
62) The Petshop Boys
December 02, 2005 8:36 PM
Danielle got another one:
63) The Bee Gee's (on the wall, one B two G's ha ha)
December 02, 2005 9:40 PM
had to chime in on this!
the yellow man is just that...yellowman.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellowman
from the virgin site, the dog between cake and the pet shop boys might be skinny puppy.
i'm also pretty sure the three girls holding hands running are the go-go's.
December 03, 2005 3:22 PM
You aren't going to add Tatu to the list?
December 05, 2005 1:35 PM
ok, I'll ask: who the hell are tatu?
how about a fairly obvious one that I don't think anyone has so far mentioned: Pavement
December 05, 2005 2:33 PM
Oh Sorry about that Claire, I forgot to comment on your post. We're using the kissing girls right now as Kiss.
I'm thinking that Kiss is more punny then tatu, however I'm willing to change this.
Kevin, good to have you aboard:
64) Yellow Man
65) Skinny Puppy
Hmm the Go Go's eh? Are they wearing Go Go boots? Is that the idea? I'm not convinced on the GoGo's but there's been nothing better about those ladies.
Hmm Pavement eh Rod...I'll take it!
66) Pavement
Anyone else think we could use the sky for: Pink? Or is that too much?
December 05, 2005 5:16 PM
There must be a Perfect Circle somewhere in this picture...
December 05, 2005 5:16 PM
Hey - looking at the fullsize pic you can see The Scorpions crawling around the Cake. We are getting there slowly
December 06, 2005 4:15 PM
Hey, Mark, did you gey Blur yet? The guy on the far right is blurry...
December 08, 2005 6:01 PM
Hey I sorta forgot about this, cool the scorpions are there!
Erin, we've got blur already but thanks.
All right so what I'm going to add is:
67) Pink
68) The Scorpions
