How pumped is your music muscle?
December 9, 2005 – 8:47 pmSo before I tell you that I have the answers for the quiz I posted yesterday, let me warn you that I had to do it myself. I think I have all of them, with help of others, so let me know if you think I have missed on or got some wrong. I realise that there are some answers which could conflict, but it is all a matter of perception.
For those of you that are curious, the answers to the quiz are here.

Right under the Virgin sign on the left I’d add the Pixies.
And behind the Go-go’s the Rolling Stones.
And with the Gorillaz on the right…is King Kong separate and another reference?

I have the pixies above the virgin sign, and the rollingstones on the other rock, in front of the deep purple building.

Surely the dead kennedys are the presidents of the USA. Kiss could be Embrace as well. How about The shadows, pavement, the streets. There’s several wings. The roots look more like vines to me.
