This is a Virgin Digital ad - there are 72 bands "hidden" in the picture - how many can you get?

I've spotted around 55 - 60 so far, my answers are in the word doc. If anyone has some to add, feel free to PM me and I will add them in (didnt want to post the answers in here and spoil it for everyone . . .)

PS: Now up to 77 (which is more than Virgin said are in there) plus another four that are alternatives.

Ones that have been causing me grief:

- The coloured panels
- The sacks in the bottom right corner
- The rat
- The couple near the coyboy

I'm guessing by the guy smashing pumpkins and the 20 matchboxes that the bands hidden are literal translations of the band names?

Yup, thats the idea - some arent quite so obvious tho . . .

Feel free, but half the fun is seeing how many you can get on your own without having to go for the answers. I'm now out of ideas, hence why its on here ;)

Gone for doors. You can just make out handles on them if you look close enough.

By the way, next to Main street in New york the subway station is called Union Station. Seeing as how there is a stairway that looks like one ones leading down to a subway terminal near asign for main street, thinking South Texas band. Turn me on Mr. Deadman. (http://www.portraitrecords.com/uu/)

Nah - leave it there. The first one didn't have the confirmed answers. To put us out of our misery.

Perhaps merge the two. I notice tho that this answers file is a slightly different picture?? And I dont think it is an "Official" answers file, whats with the circle round the plant?

Those are pixies? Look more like faeries to me. Should've got someone who's actually seen pixies to draw 'em!

Apparently the list is correct. I note the picture is wider and contains more bands - Cake, Skinny puppy, Pet Shop boys etc - than the other one (which is all I seem to be able to get from Virgin Digital, I might add.)

The person who created the modified pic submitted the answers to Virgin Digital and was told he got them all

See here (http://www.sethjones.net/?p=345)

Edit: here (http://www.heavy.com/heavy.php?channel=virginGame)'s the link to the original Virgin Digital game. The narrower picture is a wallpaper for the computer based on the game. The game itself does have all the data
