The Music Picture Game

Flick James · January 04, 2011, 12:57:31 PM

Okay, let's see how this one goes. It should be fun. Here's how it works:

Someone will post an image of a musical artist. Any genre will do, rock, rap, country, punk, metal, etc. Just try not to make the artist so obscure that it's nearly impossible for someone to guess. A little obscurity is okay, but don't go and post the drummer of some thrash metal band from the late 80's that release one album that only sold 5,000 copies. The picture should not contain any obvious clues like the bands logo or something.

Then it's up to us to guess who the artist is. We're not going to wait for the poster of the last picture to confirm whether or not the guess was right, that will slow the game down, just don't answer unless you are pretty confident you have the artist right. Then make sure you post a new picture of an artist. Don't answer unless you have a new picture to post.

I hope that's not too complicated.

Okay, so here's the first picture. I'll make it easy for the "over-30" crowd:

Elvis Costello?

That's gotta be a recent picture of Ian Anderson. Sorry if I'm wrong. Here the next one:

You got it! Was I right about Elvis Costello?

Your newest picture looks like several different people, so I'm not going to guess.

You are right about Elvis Costello.

So the current one is still up for grabs.

Keith Moon?

That was my most likely guess, but something doesn't seem right... Still if we both guessed it, it's probably him.

Most certainly Keith Moon!

Flick James · January 05, 2011, 01:30:26 PM

Yes, it is Keith Moon. Now whoever guessed it first has to post a picture.

Okay, I want to keep this game going, so I'll post the next picture:

Wow. That one's hard. I have no idea.

Allhallowsday · January 07, 2011, 12:34:25 PM

Maybe he's too obscure, but hardly unknown. Here's a hint: he just died.

Oh, I'm totally okay with obscure. I'm working on it.

Isit the guy from King Crimson? Nah...
