Find all of the bands in this picture

Maybe this has been posted (not sure) but thought it was fun. There are suppose to be about 75 bands in this picture. For example the guy in the middle of the street with the hammer and pumpkins = Smashing Pumpkins. I think I have found about 30 or so.

No this was on another board, I just cut and pasted the list. I actually only got like three of them. And half the bands in the list I haven't heard of.

At least i'm honest about cheating

Those planes are probably the Jets, but one of them could be Jefferson Airplane.

If you think about it, you could name a lot of bands they didn't intend to be there. I don't know who the two guys with sunglasses are supposed to be, but they could be Men Without Hats. The street itself could be Pavement. The guy who's obviously smashing pumpkins is holding a Tool.

Edit: I just figured out that the Vines are coming out of that vent.

I see Skinny Puppy, Scorpions and Cake in the larger picture in that link. The pic in the first post has the left side cut off. I think in the very back by the gorilla is supposed to be Mountain (EDIT: Oh, wait...I just saw Cypress Hill in the "cheat list").

I wonder if the two girls under Whitesnake are supposed to be KISS?

The TV's in the window on the right could also be The Tubes.

I think I just got the guys in the suits, sunglasses, blood on them, and guitar cases (most likely with guns in them): The Killers.

I think they might be those little black specks around the Hole.

Okay, the apes at the top are Gorillaz, but I think the one in the middle is a chimp so that they could collectively be The Monkees.

I just knew there was something about the color of that building in the back. It's Deep Purple.

The sky is Pink, as are some other things.

Alice and/or the girl with the gum could be Blondie.

Am I reaching, or is there some significance to the day of the week on the calendar? It's as if someone marked that day and can't wait 'Til Tuesday.

Are some of those guys Backstreet Boys?

The whole thing is Madness, I tell you!

Not everything is on that list. For example: The Doors.

Is it just me, or is U2 referenced twice--the U2 bomber planes at screen top and the double "u" graffiti on the building?

* Never mind...the former must be the B-52 planes...
