75 Bands


December 5th, 2005 - 00:04 | 10 comments

Skuds pointed me towards this fantastic image from Virgin Digital, which apparently has representations of 75 bands:

Virgin Image of 75 Bands

Is great fun! The feeling of satisfaction when you realise what the guys in white represent is quite amazing :-) Over at his blog they’re in the high sixties, but there are some parts of the image that are still confusing. What’s with the cowboy and his friends?

Update: According to this digg post, there are actually only 74 bands. The answers are listed there, so don’t follow the link if you’re trying to figure it out.

Update 2: My sister points to a full list of answers here, referenced to locations on the image.
