Isn't number 9 the name on the drum? 'The New Creation', although that sounds a bit simple?

Well, thats what I though!
But it is you know - I'm thinking maybe photo'd in the seventies... I'll find the info.

If I'm wrong cancel this whole sorry mess of an excuse for a Monday quiz :cry2:

My Balloon - October 19, 2009 12:38 PM (GMT)
If you're wrong give me the point anyway :D

Is number 8 'Lordi', the band that won Eurovision?

It can't be the Shaggs as the person on the left is a bloke surely? And the drummer would have had to lose an awful lot of weight. They all had long hair as well and were roughly the same age I think.

Neal Cassady - October 19, 2009 12:57 PM (GMT)
Not Lordi - another band where the singer (pictured in his undercrackers) has now died.

Yes, but this is a picture of them from 1999 and the "heavy treader" on drums has grown a beard.

So just number 8 to go - "Jesus Christ" somebody must know this band, or at least the singer?! Died in 1993...

Zoot Horn Polo - October 19, 2009 04:54 PM (GMT)
