You know, um, I was gonna get around to that, eventually, the listing them all.... just like I'm gonna do the dishes instead of running ooff to check you all out and letting a volunteer do it (I cook a lot, though... which balances out my avoidance of dishes when i can avoid them....)

urrrrrrrr, is that meant to be 'Prince' right at the front...?

[forest]

OK, you all caught me out. I'm reversing internet history and although I'm a 22 year old hippy chic living at the cross, I'm saying I'm a 57 year old codger from queensland. Stay alert everyone, I'm cruising this forum. :wink:

I've loved new music since I was a teenager in the 60s. Still do. I've got a CD collection my kids eye with envy. My latest contributions to it are Bjork and Nick Cave. :D

Now, I've been working all day but I did think about this. I think the girls kissing are just KISS.

Joel, the mother and child is Madonna. I thought that about the red prince too. and Richard, I love the Lovin' Spoonful too. I remember buying their 45 "Younger Girl" when it first came out. Swoon.

I'm kicking myself for not knowing the white stripes.

[forest]

YAY - the hole in the street is HOLE!

[wwoofertobe]

screaming jets?? up top.

forest- there are 'pixies' buzzing around the logo (top left) if you're still looking...

[~Tullymoor~]

You're too cool forest!! 8)

[devinp]

ok - hot house flowers, radio head, lemon heads, alice in chains, gorillaz, green day (calendar on fruit stand).... and that's me done. oh - maybe talking heads (check out the tv screens in the shop window on the right).

wow - black flag, can't believe I actually used to listen to that.

[devinp]

cowboy junkies and the tv's in the window could be - 'television'.

[Ichsani]

ummm, Cypress Hill (big tree on the hill)
Eminem (there's a pack on the ground) or m&m's
possibly Jewel (the necklace on the ground to the right)......

...the kissing chicks I think are some girl pop group thingy (like that Avril chick) that got off on snogging each other, scandal in US, absolutely no idea what they are called.........ended up in the media lots somewhere other than Aus (mentioned in History of Sex and Pop.....was on sbs) for not 'actually' being lesbians....I get the impression they've fallen from favour....maybe, don't know...........best guess

......Murray, you do have the list don't you? :lol:

ichy

[murray]

>Murray, how did we do?

*shrug*

how would i know? this just got forwarded to me in an email. it's not like i have the answers or anything.. :lol:

[forest]

hahaha! I love it. Murray, you're a gem and so like Crusty, it's almost scary.

[Franceyne]

I'm late on the scene as usual - and missed all the fun...this forum has me nearly wanting a computer at home....

:wink: :lol:

[christopher]

Franceyne,

I suspect you could have done the whole thing on your own.... :lol: you ex roady permie person...

C

[Franceyne]

It would have been fun trying Christopher - however my music knowledge is mainly restricted to heavy metal and 70's rock...with a bit of Goth/New Romantic crossover stuff thrown in.

I spent the weekend talking Marshall stacks and Gibson guitars though...it was a lovely trip down memory lane 8)

Cheers,
Fran :wink:
