Don't forget the Bee Gees (BGG under uu) and I'd be inclined to replace Television with Talking Heads.


Edited to say, I had cake in my list and what are those just behind the Queens bum, are they Stix?

I thought the big rat may of simply been Ratt because I couldn't see the reference to Boomtown.

That plant in the foreground could be Robert Plant? Pretty weak I know, but as UB said, it must have some significance (sp?).

Oh and the cat in front of the boys. Stray Cats? The plural ruins it a bit. My missus said Robert Plant which I scoffed at .

The view I had of the original picture had some of the l/h/s missing. It got cut off just left of the zombie, hence I couldn't figure out where Cake, Pet Shop Boys and Skinny Puppy came from . Just thought I had genuinely missed them in the pic. Did anyone else get this?

I only saw the whole thing after following the link supplied by andrew420.

Ah, so it's a Skinny Puppy and not a Stray Cat and what I thought were Styx are actually The Roots .

So who are the lads on the roof and the acrobats?

I thought the two acrobats were Twisted Sister, which is on the list. The three girls holding hands and the guys on the roof are still puzzling me!

Think the actual answers were in the Star or the Sun last week - someone at work had it, we had a quick look.
FWIW, I do remember a few things - the acrobats were definitely twisted sister, the poster was Madonna, and the little fairy things were definitely the pixies.
