Good work

[pip07]

Sheryl Crow

I'm looking at the Main St. sign, they look like crows to me

[kleptomaniac]

Sheryl Crow

I'm looking at the Main St. sign, they look like crows to me

dang that's what my friend said, but i thought that wuz too far-fetched or something... :rolleyes:

but that works (y)

six more left i guess....? :confused:

[DroppinScience]

two things bothering me right now: the girl with the bubblegum and the golden dude....

I have no clue about the bubblegum girl, but my guess(es) for the golden dude would be Yello (they're responsible for the song "Oh Yeah" that was on Ferris Bueller) or maybe Yellow Magic Orchestra (Japanese group)?

As for the two people on top of each other: maybe... Spandau Ballet?

The "Shop" sign? Pet Shop Boys???

As for the crows: I'm inclined to think The Black Crowes.

What's that hole in the ground (between the garbage and the potential Spandau Ballet people?)

I'm also gonna opt to say the pavement would be... Pavement. Why not?

And the cars in the background... either The Cars? Or maybe... Traffic?

[kleptomaniac]

i thought the hole wuz a puddle of mud...so i thought of "puddles of mud" or whatever they're called...


my friend ALSO thought of pavement! wow, she's not as crazy as a thought....or maybe you guys are just as crazy as she is! :eek:

what the hell?!

fine! you can tak over making the grand list! i didn't even want to do it! :(
lol

[kleptomaniac]

but her's is purple, dude ;)

[jackrock]

i can make mine blurple... purple meets black ;)

[b-grrrlie]

what the hell?!

fine! you can tak over making the grand list! i didn't even want to do it! :(
lol
Sorry I had made my original list long before I saw yours. And where do you find Westlife? And those airplanes ain't Jets they're B-52's.
DD, the hole in the ground is Hole ;)
And the shop doesn't have any pets in it, so it's just a Cornershop (Pet Shop Boys had been in my mind as well). The golden dude is Yellowman! d-oh!
Pavement is a good call!
But what about the orange posters! Mannequin in the window? Subway station? (Subway Sect?) The couple by the station? Main St sign? Pineapples?
So we could have the Black Crows as Sheryl Crow as well, heh, I've counted the zombie already as White Zombie, the Zombies and Dead Can Dance :D

[kleptomaniac]

westlife would be the cowboys

[jackrock]

that's not MY list... i took other peoples thoughts and put them into one... but w/e :D

[DroppinScience]

Subway station? (Subway Sect?)


I had The Velvet Underground in mind. It reminds me of the "Loaded" cover and I guess one could interpret "Underground" to be a subway system.

But hey, I could be stretching things...

[WhoMoi?]

westlife would be the cowboys

I thought that looked more like Cowboy Junkies.

[TAL]

The video version. (http://www.boardsmag.com/screeningroom/commercials/2119/)

[kleptomaniac]

I thought that looked more like Cowboy Junkies.

yeah probably. my friend just told me it was westlife :rolleyes: :o

[WhoMoi?]

So I was the only one to think this was gonna be about Guess Who?

No, you weren't the only one. :o

And just for the record, they weren't a one-hit wonder. In addition to American Woman, there were Undun, These Eyes, No Sugar Tonight, and No Time.
Just sayin. Carry on with the picture. :p

[TAL]

No, you weren't the only one. :o
Thank you :)

[DroppinScience]

So I was the only one to think this was gonna be about Guess Who?

To quote The Weakerthans...

"The Guess Who sucked, the Jets were lousy anyways"

[faz]

If you're unaware there is a bigger version of the image here (http://pub.virgindigital.com/content/Images/GB/W/S/M1603/COMPENTRYUK/compimage2.jpg) which revels a few more. Pet shop boys for example

[b-grrrlie]

^^^ Yeah I was sent that version as well today. D-oh!
There's Cake as well, and the presidents posters could be Dead Kennedys as well. What about the chihuahua and the dead frogs?
As it looks like the competition is over has anyone found the right answers?
I sent my suggestions and only 54 were right, got a B- (well I knew some of them were far fetched...:p )

[jabumbo]

has nobody mentioned the cranberies? (in the crates on the bottom right)


the two guys walking down the street with guitars - blues traveler?


people inside - house of pain?

[adam_f]

Faggot.

[PaddyBoy]

the two guys walking down the street with guitars - blues traveler?




Blues Brothers?

[roosta]

Blues Brothers?

its the fun loving criminals. look at their faces.

and the blues brothers never carried guitars....
