Still bugging me:
1. Potted plant in foreground 2. Little Dog next to Pet Shop 3. The four stacked boxes |
The guys on the roof *have* to be the Carpenters. They're putting up a frame even.
What's the yellow band around the 'smashing pumpkins' guy's arm? Or is that just a piece of pumpkin? Also: pooh sticks, if I remember right, are sticks that you throw into a creek, with the idea of racing against other pooh sticks. This doesn't fit this at all. Plus, looking closely, I see some of the ends of the 'sticks' have flat heads, while others have points. |
Im dumb and cant seem to read today

Looked like a railing but I think one of the guys actually has a hammer (far right). Don't think the yellow band means anything. Pooh sticks... my bad. You are right. So it is either Styx or NIN... I favour NIN for the same reason as you... the flat heads. |

Things that are bugging me (in addition to charlatan's list):
1. The girl with bubblegum (it can't be blondie--why would they add such a conspicuous detail like the gum?) 2. The inflatable doll in the shop along with whatever is next to her 3. The yellow band on the smashing pumkin guy's arm (if it's not a piece of pumpkin, then it seems out of place) 4. The 'main street' sign 5. The subway station 6. The three girls holding hand (I'm willing to concede that those are gogos, but somehow I have a feeling a cleverer answer is lurking there) |
woah--check this out:
http://www.mariani.com/prod_cranberry.html I found it following a hunch. That's *hard* unless you're familiar with the brand! |

1. I agree but will live with Blondie for now... 2. Mannequin? Red Bikini? Does it have a blue face? 3. It's a tensor bandage used to support the muscles on the forearm... My though is the model was wearing it while swinging the hammer. 4. I agree... Exhile on Main Street... 5. I agree... Tubes but there is only one... Velvet Underground but no velvet... 6. Definately the GoGos... I don't think it's anything else. 7. Potted plant in foreground... is it is a rubber plant also called ficus, Robert Plant? Green Plant... I got nothin' |

OK, so do we have crowded house and bloc party as the same thing? I believe we do, in which case your suspicion of bloc party would be correct and i'd tend to go with crowded house.
Secondly, I clicked on the virgin link and the rules came up, and they said there are 74 bands, so that lowers the number we're looking for by 1. |
I clearly can't read and made a suggestion we already had.
|
It surprises me that Pink floyd isn't part of the picture..

what is that thing in the Pet Shop window right next to the word "Shop"? it's been bothering me for a long time now
*edit* if you actually do the thing on heavy, it tells you how many answers you got right. you can just cheat and try individual names to see if they belong in the list. Bloc Party apparently is not a correct answer. |
How about The Streets, for the Main Street sign?
