Well done with your list, by the way: you've outshone us all.
Well, thank you.

I guess I forgot to list Madonna, even it was one of the first ones I caught. I still missed ones you pointed out, those bands were the farthest from my mind. I was thinking Deep Blue Something for the shark poster, because a shark dwells in the deep blue, but Great White makes more sense.

Other I realized after posting was The Tubes (which is referenced by the subway) and Pavement, which is probably the most obvious one after Spoon for the spoon. I couldn't figure out if the three women crossing the street were dressed in 60s fashion, so I didn't mention The Go-Go's, but it is a possibility. I connect the three women to Nancy Sinatra since they were wearing boots and walking across the street which clearly a reference to her hit "These Boots Are Made For Walking."

Since the sky was pink, and it's pretty big I was thinking The Band (since their album is called Big Pink) however P!nk makes more sense.
