Band Game

[cincibuck]

Look at the posters on the wall of the building, left, center. Dead Kennedys. U2 is in the Graffitti I assume that one of the acrobats is Twisted Sister and that next to her is the Iron Maiden. There are Box Tops in front of the fruit stand, Red Hot Chili Peppers are spilling from the John Cougar Mellon kamp. There are Crows on Main Street. Loving Spoonful on the far right along with the Beach Boys. Glenn Miller is buried beneath the street. Bob Crosby and the Bobcats are behind the building warming up. Les Brown and his Band of Reknown are on the bus, The Coasters are at the amusement park behind the hill, next to the first gorilla. John Phillip Sousa is directing. The picture was drawn by Big Brother and the Holding Company, Cream is pouring in the restaurant and the whole thing came to me while listening to the Jimmi Hendrix Experience.

I'm 62, and maintain that rock 'n roll died shortly after the Eagles and yet I figured that out. Any prizes?

Way to go, Cinci. I can't believe it took this long for someone to point out Iron Maiden.

The Police -Just to the right of and well behind the Iron Maiden in the picture. (in the further crosswalk)

Crowded House

...and the Mona Lisa is of the category 'Madonna.' Can't believe I didn't see The Cars. What's with the fairies, Elton John? The five television sets, Talking Heads? Was there a band named CORN?

There's a band called "The Mailmen", but I only see one mailman and I don't know how popular they are...:p

 

[JXC]

I don't know if anybody has this one...but the people in the far right window look "trapped" for trapt!

 

[DEBuckeye]

The Presidents of the United States? (posters next to Madonna)

 

[Saw31]

We got the Cars, how about "Traffic"???

Post 27, page 2.

A lot of things people are saying have already been mentioned.

 

[DEBuckeye]

Along with the B-52's, could the planes be The Jets?

Even thought they're on Main St., could the group in white be the Manic Street Preachers?

The group in white- how about The Cult?

Is there a group called Lesbian Kiss? (chicks making out) I can't Google it at work- "lesbian" will be a red flag....

How about Television?

The Eagles could also be The Byrds.

On the calendar, they could have also shown The Sundays and Black Sabbath.
