Reading Music

Righto my dear NAO, it's that time again. time for another frustrating, yet oh-so-addictive project for MelMel ala the ultimate book quiz. Ok the deal with this is, there's supposed to be 72 band names concealed within this picture. Now i've managed to find about 50 of them, but am stuck on the other 22. So, get to work NAO! I promise you, it's more addictive than you think.

So that I son't spoil the fun for you all, i'll post the bands i've found in small dribs and drabs.

Get cracking y'all!

you'll find that null has nicely provided you with a larger image here

So to get you started we have...

Queen shooting The Sex Pistols at Prince with Matchbox 20 just infront of The Scissor Sisters. also you'll find a Crowded House in the top right corner.

Good luck!

That girl on the right next to the Blurry man is Alice in Chains.

The guy next to the Matchbox 20 is Smashing Pumpkins.

There's a Whitesnake crawling up the traffic lights just below the Le(a)d Zeppelin.

In the centre of the picture The Cars are about to be smashed by Rolling Stones. In front of the left stone an Iron Maiden is crossing the street.

Heyy, this is kinda fun :-) I'll stop here so everybody gets their turn. I wonder if the bands you recognise first tell you something about your musical preferences/upbringing?

Consider yourself hugged.

Guns'n'Roses is pretty obvious
Beach Boys (the two boys with surf boards)
Deep Purple (the purple house)
Seal? (the poster on the wall on the left side)
Hole (null guessed that)

I'll let it by this, so that the others can guess, too ;)

I see The Pixies on the left side, floating above a White Zombie near the posters of two Dead Kennedies overlooking an employee of The Postal Service. There are Men At Work on top of the building on the right (the one with the Black Flag). Down the road, near the Rolling Stones, you can see The Police. I'm not positive, but is the woman with the Sex Pistols threatening King Crimson? If so, does that make the woman threatening him Queen?

I'll believe in anything if you'll just believe in anything

I think that would be the Queen shooting Prince using Sex Pistols :P But then I think that everybody is entitled to his own interpretation :P In fact, that Black Flag to me looks like a flag with two White Stripes, so who knows :P

Eminem is another

The Cranesbill--a surprising pick by Emmet.

Sorry, I'm gonna have to go to work again, it's just too much fun. :-)

Right under the white snake there's a Kissing couple. There are Cowboy Junkies next to the fruit/veggies stand with a Blind Melon and some Lemonheads on it. Also, there's a 50 Cent coin behind the Queen and what looks like a Cypress Hill in the background.

I'm not sure if that's a Phish in that bowl, and a Dinosaur Jr. behind the Queen?
The Yellowman at the corner shop is pretty obvious. The Nails behind the Prince might be Nine Inches long, and...

*stops*

Could this be a Feargal Sharkie poster on the left side?
