Coupla new ones:

The Cranberries (flexible pkg'g in the orange/fruit crates)

Smile Orange (the bottom fruit on the right)

Mountain (that big thing in the background)

Pavement (the roadway)

And a correction:

The stuff coming out of the sewer grate might not be tentacles; they possibly might be...

....Styx

(Admitting a mistake here) The Twigs were actually Nails, likely of the Nine Inch variety.

--> With the debris around the pot"Hole", it looks more like a "Puddle of Mud".

--> Are the "Manic Street Preachers"/"Lost Prophets" instead actually "The Proclaimers"?

I'm up to at least 66, even accounting for those questionable...Don't see/agree w/ T-Rex nor Twisted Sister (good one, the latter, but there's two of'em).

Thought of The Dolls or The New York Dolls for the blow-up doll in the window, but there's only one of'em

A buddy also sees Grateful Dead & Monkees but I don't either yet...

Oh and DonkHotay... Wouldn't Montain be the already discussed Cypress Hill? (it's a cypress tree on top of a hill)

Either way... we can definitely read too much into this and come up with 100 something bands... haha, the trick is now to figure out exactly which ones do really fit and aren't just far fetched

Might be both? Cypress Hill fits better, tho...

Who are the two guys in the black suits with guitar cases? It appears that they have red spots on their shirts. I'm not so sure its the Blues Brothers anymore.

[/ QUOTE ]

The Killers (it can't be the BBs since all these bands are depicted by name, not characterized by how they look)

Oh and I believe the pearl is actually Jewel

11. Again, I would say The Killers

59. KISS not tatu (because, like I tried to explain before, ALL bands in the poster are refered to by name, not traits... hence two girls kissing would be kiss and not tatu)

66. the postman most likely would be Postal Service

But "Queen" fits the trait, too! wink.gif

Good point tho...but why would they put two girls instead of typical couple?

Hmmm...I do see the 'blood'...

Where are their killing devices? If they were mariachis desparado con caso de guitara maybe I'd be more convinced. Or are these reservoir dog guitar case-carrying killers?

Fits the singlar nature better...but kinda goes against your 'name' convention, no?...tho I do think it's most plausible...
