Really good attempt here by Pianogirl
Brian Johnson is right, Quad Guitar is alright but I wish there was a description - Toy Dolls is correct. Nine Inch Nails, Satriani, Soft Cell, Falco .. all those correct.
I'll list the s
olutions I did not give you points for :
- 4. Fire
- 8. Jerry Reed
- 10. Danny Elfman
That gives Pianogirl75 7 points for a 7 points total!
I'm drunk at the moment and don't usually have internet these days and on top of that, I'm going on a cabin trip for the weekend so I won't be able to post new questions until monday. If anyone else want to give it a shot, go ahead.
