75 is the magic number, can we do it?

It's the weekend, so let's have some fun here. I believe that we are intelligent people so this should be easy, right?

In this picture, there are 75 bands implied. Between all 43,000 + members, we should have this figured out in no time.

Here is my Active Rain Weekend Fun Challenge. How long will it take us to get all 75 listed?

And beware of repeats.....

bands

Let the fun begin! Have a great weekend!

Donna that's a good one. I love the stray cats! I was trying to think of what that was...

Rob you are such a cheater! I wouldn't do that because I thought this was more fun. But it's doesn't look like all are the other list either....

Dang every one I found has been mentioned already, there re some sharp cookies here. Good thing is I got some great reminders of groups to add on my Ipod. This is fun Ann... now I'll be downloading and blogging, Geesh that is winter activity.

Hole

Crowded House

The B-52's could be JETS OVERHEAD, a new band my husband and I found. This group is phenomenal! Listen to "Killing Time" and "Life's a Song." There's also This Way (hear this one first, and crank it up - it explodes after 10 seconds) which I have played at least 1000 times so far. My husband bought this cd for me. These guys are Canadian, I think, but honestly, this is some of the best new music I've heard in 5 years. Maybe 10. Enjoy.

p.s. When you get to the site, click on "music" at the top, and it will list and play these songs.

haha, this is fun I'll be back once I figure some out that everyone else hasn't yet

duh....I kept look at the half dollar trying to figure that out...

50 cent

ANN:

I was trying to zoom in on the picture, I got 2 questions, is there an Iron Maidden on the cross walk, behind the Blues brothers or have I been looking at this picture for way too long?

and second, what is the significance of a small t-rex behid the Queen? some one may have better knowlege of the band names than me.

Thanks for the fun, just the same.
