Re: Band quiz

10, 26, 34 (is that Bryan Ferry?), 39 (I thought it was T-Rex but I'm wrong), 56, 57 (2 britpop bands), 81, 96, 106, 115, 124, 172, 196, 218, 224, 252, 259 and 266 are all driving me insane.

Tisn't Split Enz
Go West... sheesh, I've never heard of them. But that picture was soooo familiar.

Def Leppard and Oasis are in there - but not those numbers. Actually, Def Leppard are right next to Go West.

Oh duh. Go West

26 is making me think Arrested Development for some reason.

Ooh, 96! I know it... *racks brain* Extreme? Bad hair like that cannot be forgotten.

224 rings a little bell, but maybe it's the hairstyles again. Whitesnake?

Ooh, Whitesnake was right! Not a bad guess, heh. Others are wrong. damn.

Or... not! Gah!

why'd you link that? seriously, I'm gonna be stuck here all day now?

I've been perusing wikipedia all day for lists of bands.

Thing is, you can often tell from the pic what genre the band is, which narrows it down.

I have a large list of solved ones if you want it.

[identity profile] jakie-em.livejournal.com 2005-12-12 07:13 am (UTC)(link)

[identity profile] gemfyre.livejournal.com 2005-12-12 07:20 am (UTC)(link)

[identity profile] gemfyre.livejournal.com 2005-12-12 10:01 am (UTC)(link)
You do realise that if you type the name in the space below it tells you if you're right or not?

It appeared in an e-mail for mum.

I reckon it's B52s too but it doesn't seem to want to accept that.

[identity profile] gemfyre.livejournal.com 2005-12-12 10:01 am (UTC)(link)
Okay, it IS B52s. I was trying to put a dash or space in.

[identity profile] jakie-em.livejournal.com 2005-12-12 10:13 am (UTC)(link)
