Guess the name of the band from the picture.

You got it! Good one.

I think you gave a little too much away on the hint.

Anyway this should be easy.

eviltimeban · 01-05-2014 12:21PM

I didn't want to hold it up any longer!

Oh, and Dream Theatre.

h3000 · 01-05-2014 12:22PM

Dream Theater

Knew that would be a quick one!

I'm almost tempted to give it to h3000 for the correct spelling.

Do. h3000, over to you. I can't think of anything at the moment anyway.

I can't either so someone else can jump in.

eviltimeban · 01-05-2014 03:54PM

OK, this is ridiculously hard.

And its not the Beatles.

donegal. · 01-05-2014 04:15PM

johnny Gentle ?

eviltimeban · 01-05-2014 04:22PM

That's a picture of Johnny Gentle alright, but that's not the answer. The clue is pretty cryptic tbh.

h3000 · 01-05-2014 10:37PM

Gentle Giant?

eviltimeban · 02-05-2014 01:26PM

Nope.

rolliepoley · 03-05-2014 12:04AM

Clue?

eviltimeban · 03-05-2014 12:12AM

Ok, well, it sort of requires an in-depth knowledge of the Beatles. What band name was inspired by anything to do with the Beatles and Johnny Gentle?

rolliepoley · 03-05-2014 12:22AM

Silver Beetles

eviltimeban · 03-05-2014 12:23AM

You're getting closer...

rolliepoley · 03-05-2014 12:44AM

Johnny Gentle and the Silver Beetles?

eviltimeban · 03-05-2014 12:57AM

No. No Beatles, silver or otherwise, or Johnny Gentle. Completely other band.

eviltimeban · 03-05-2014 03:46PM

So have I killed the momentum of the thread with this one? Should I just give the answer or do people still wanna have a go of it? Or should I give more clues?

I showed it to one poster who isn't on here and he got it immediately so its doable!

h3000 · 03-05-2014 04:11PM

Real shot in the dark hear and only because they were fans of the Beatles. Is there any chance it's The Byrds. You know birds eat beetles

I think it might be a little too difficult to be honest. Not having a go at you but I think the clue should relate a little closer to the picture than the musicians history. Maybe stick up another pick to give us a clue.

rolliepoley · 03-05-2014 07:16PM

Ramones?

eviltimeban · 03-05-2014 08:07PM

Yes!! Well done. Now explain to the class how you got it.

rolliepoley · 03-05-2014 08:17PM

From your clue, johnny Ramone, the Beatles used to have nicknames for them selfs and i think McCartney had Paul Ramone.

Clue.

Kat1170 · 03-05-2014 09:37PM

Simply Red ???

rolliepoley · 03-05-2014 11:44PM

Nope.

Yes, well specifically on the tour where they backed Johnny Gentle, they all used assumed names (this was pre-fame). Paul indeed was Paul Ramon.

He took it further with his "Ram" solo album with the song "Ram On".

Hence, the Ramones.

rolliepoley · 04-05-2014 02:40PM

Strightforward clue, i wont be around later.

Terry Hall.

eviltimeban · 04-05-2014 07:58PM

I don't get it.

Guess the name of the band from the picture.
