  13. rollyb says:

    Matchbox 20 could also be Sum 41 as it is made up of 21 matchboxes (20+21)

  14. steffen says:

    men in black i think is the guys in the suites

  23. Sarah says:

    no one has mentioned the guy in the corner that is blurred.. like the band blur

  24. Sarah says:

    just saw the beachboys ?
    the guys with surfboards… that could be a strech though lol

    i also thought maybe that queen right up front is the band queen, but then why is she holding pink guns that look suspiciously like something else…

    perhaps the guy shes pointing them at is prince ?

  25. =] says:

    Rolling stones

  26. =] says:

    im also guessing boys like girls… the guy holding the girl on the right…? that might be a stretch

  27. MWaltz says:

    No one’s mention the hulking gray figure on the crosswalk – looks like a figure of a queen made out of stone – Queens of the Stone Age?

  28. MWaltz says:

    Or instead of “Queens of the Stone Age”, since there’s only one gray figure on the crosswalk, did somebody already mention “Iron Maiden”?

  29. MWaltz says:

    OK – so I see someone already said Iron Maiden for the figure on the crosswalk. As to the small, walking dinosaur – there is a band called “Dinosaur Jr.”, and I think another band with Dinosaur in there name (can’t think of it). The group in white pointing up to the huge snake – they look like Hare Krishnas to me – isn’t there a band with Hare Krishna in their name? Anyone have a guess what the 4, differently-colored panels behind that group signify? And did someone already guess “Talking Heads” for the TV screens in the window behind the Cowboy Junkies?

    “the police” infron of the cars in the back

    the candy on the ground above machtbox 20 could be “hard candy”

    and there is an plant behind queen that could be “robert plant”

    the fallen trash can could be “cradle of filth”
