Alright, not your every-day Optical Illusion, never the less “The Virgin Digital Find the 75 Bands” competition is the cleverest piece of marketing I’ve seen in ages. If you haven’t already got the picture in your mailbox, you can get the full-sized image by clicking on the image below. This Competition is guaranteed to provide endless hours of amusement and head scratching, it’s a large image which contains graphic representations of 75 band names. For example, there are guns in the basket with roses, which obviously represents band called “Guns ‘n’ Roses”. Here’s what I want you to do: find one that wasn’t previously mentioned and post your find as a comment in comment section, only one find per user please! Please don’t cheat and search for solutions on Google, let’s make this fun for everyone! Thanks. When you think your done with this flick, be sure to check other searching games below!

dead kennedys
the killers (two men in black)
the doors
oasis beyond the gorillas
all i see is the scissor sisters(the pink scissors),The Rolling Stones(the stones rolling down the street),and Alice In Chains(Alice from Alice in Wonderland chained on the far right of the picture

“the rolling stones;” is that “queen” and “prince?” “iron maiden,” “led zeppelin,” “garbage,” “smashing pumpkins,” “green day;” maybe “the postal service?” “radiohead,” “U2,” “50 cent,” “the sex pistols,” “guns ‘n roses,” maybe “nine inch nails?” “matchbox twenty,” “blind melon,” “red hot chili peppers,” “alice in chains;” maybe “the eagles,” and “spoon?” “black flag,” “the beach boys”
I see the Pixies too.
did anyone say COWBOY JUNKIES yet? PHISH?
and i’m pretty sure the giant spoon is just SPOON, not THE LOVIN’ SPOONFUL
Blur, Nine Inch Nails, Beach Boys, Radiohead, Black Crowes
I’m thinking Eminem on the ground left of prince, although those would technically be peanut M&M’s.
