[yoniluvrca]

Have we got them all yet? I think that there are a few left.

How about the three guys on the roof?

The green eels?

The goldfish(I think Phish is a stretch as I said)?

The mailman?

The coloured panels leaning against the building?

I am spending far too much time with this..

 

[Willie263]

BeeGee's = BGG graffiti

Was there a group called black flag????

 

[yoniluvrca]

and that yellow dude on the left?

Yellowman (A Reggae Band)

The coloured panels leaning against the building?

I wonder if these are doors and thus:

The Doors

In order to keep track of what bands are identified so far, I took a screen cap of the pic (the pic Tao posted was missing some of the pic on the left) and put numbers on or near the ones that are on the list below. Some I wasn't totally sure so I went with what others have posted here. There are 10 left that I can't get, that haven't been posted, or where the suggestion here didn't seem right to me. Those have been circled in blue.

excellent work SWG!!!

i downloaded the original pic from virgins website (screensaver section). i noticed later that some the pic was missing compared to the contest. i was going to get a screen shot also but i am glad you did it!!

do you think # 57 could be "the white stripes"?

 

[hornyhunk]

Okay, the guys with the guitars...The Blues Brothers.

 

[aznboi9]

56. Hole
57. The Vapours
58. The Vines
60. Dinosaur Jr.

Nice work SWG, but what happened to 59? I didn't see 58 on the picture; but I saw a number 59 on what people were thinking were the vines. And the yellow man hasn't been named either, unless it is that reggae band that someone already mentioned.

But this was good organization, at any rate.

 

[silverback]

The Eels - between "Queen" & Prince
Bush - in front of "Guns n' Roses"

Very cool!

58 was supposed to be Yellowman and 59 The Vines...

From what I can see we got many of them right, a few wrong and some that were not even there.

Well done Perberts.

There are a couple that I really don't get like:

311
D12

and a couple that I kind if think are lame

The Carpenters-they don't look like carpenters to me
Jane's Addiction-how are we supposed to make the leap that this is Jane?
I mean with Alice in Chains that is quite obviously Alice.
