Subject: Fun game, guess the 80's band/solo artist
Written By: oingo_fan on 10/08/05 at 4:44 pm
Found this on another 80's website, wish I could say I drew this but I can't. I'll give the easy one-column 5 row 6 is Devo.
PS: Sorry for the micro-preview below-save the jpg file and you can blown it up as big as you want.

That seems like....impossible! :o Are you sure they're all bands, anyway? For I seem to recognize Robert Palmer (5th row, second from the left) in his Addicted To Love times.
Modified to add:
Seems like I'm right... I've also spotted Culture Club (top left hand corner).

Fun quiz - thanks for letting guests play!
2nd column, 5th row - Eurythmics?
Next to them in the 3rd column is Adam and the Ants.
4th column, 6th row - The Cure
I also think I may see Genesis, the Scorpions, Howard Jones, Huey Lewis and the News, the Stray Cats, the Cars, Missing Persons, Duran Duran, and Thomas Dolby on there, but I may be WAY off on those, so I'm not getting any more specific. So much for the easy ones.
Who the heck is the guy with the blue hair?!
