Guest Posted September 24, 2007 Report Share Posted September 24, 2007 Not sure if some of you have seen this before, but I've never got all of them and wanted to see if we could collectively. This image holds the names of 75 popular bands in picture form. Tell what the band name is that you find and where you see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 are you talking about that yellow guy standing in front of the pet shop being the skinny puppy? also, I was reaching for presidents of the US, it was worth a shot. since these are virgin records' artists, I think we could narrow it down a bit as to what's missing (I dont know if they are included in this picture, I'm just listing some other famous virgin records artists): the beatles the stone roses the clash the cure public enemy neil young CSN&Y stevie wonder metallica (maybe portrayed by all the metal in the picture?) elton john bjork john coltrane pearl jam air (maybe the air in the picture that the people breathe?) michael jackson janet jackson jimi hendrix bob marley simon & garfunkel the who alanis morissette REM pink floyd the smiths love miles davis the velvet underground nirvana oasis bruce springsteen david bowie bob dylan fleetwood mac the band marvin gaye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 since these are virgin records' artists, I think we could narrow it down... The puzzle was put out by Virgin, but many if not most of the bands were never signed by Virgin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 I am pretty sure there is an assumption that any given item in the picture stands for only one band. For example, I'd say that the little dog isn't rattdog, but skinny puppy. Anyone want to sort out the list for multiple bands for any one item?

0 Guest Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 well, then the B52s, jet, and wings would be the first ones to be looked at, as they have 3 bands in one pic. of course, you could always make the case that "pink" isnt a band, but a person, so she wouldnt count. so is eminem, 50 cent, blondie, jewel, madonna, and seal. but then, why did they have those obvious signs in there for them? I mean, they are very obvious. prince, of course, you could say it's prince and the revolution, I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted October 3, 2007 Report Share Posted October 3, 2007 I think the single person artists are ok. 50 Cent, Prince, and Madonna are definitely there, so I would guess Pink is ok. I am guessing that the airplanes represent the B-52's rather than jet or wings. All 3 are good guesses, but the image is obviously trying to be a B-52 and with more than 1 of them - well ... I think jet would be a single jet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted October 4, 2007 Report Share Posted October 4, 2007 yeah, phish. and I do think that the planes could be more than one thing, I dont see why at least "wings" couldnt be included since there are more than just one wing.

0 Guest Posted October 5, 2007 Report Share Posted October 5, 2007 Because the gist of the puzzle is one band for each image. It's a best fit kind of thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted October 7, 2007 Report Share Posted October 7, 2007 YellowMan (since artists are in play now), Black Flag, Iron Maiden (near "the killers"), and I'm sure someone already said it, but The Rolling Stones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted October 7, 2007 Report Share Posted October 7, 2007 Yeah, look at the list that is there. Iron Maiden, Rolling Stones already there. Yellowman - that is a great one. I've never been able to figure that guy out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 i know theres only one but could "snakes and ladders" be acceptible i looked it up and found them. there has to be something with the watermelon with sunglasses right? and wings could refer to the eagles wings too.

0 Guest Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 I really need to take the time to figure out how many we actually have here. Watermellon with glasses is Blind Mellon Snake is Whitesnake i'm pretty sure. Eagles is definately what they are getting at with the eagles. Again we're assuming each image stands for only one band.
