Hmmm - so you did.

Those three girls running across the street - The Go-Gos?

(damn, you already had that one too)...

Also - the Bee Gees (graffiti on the wall)?

Deep Purple - the bulding at the back?

What do you have for the two girls kissing on the corner? Is that Kiss? I'm stumped.

I guessed Deep Purple on my updated list but I'd missed Kiss until SLL pointed it out. D'oh!

Bravo on the Bee Gees-- I couldn't quite make that out but now it pops right out at me.

Also: Madonna

Explain the New Kids one to me? I'm switching Jesus and Mary Chain back into the possible category. I was thinking it might be a chain of stores but that's a huge stretch.

Questions/unsolved clues:

What's the Main Street sign for?
Three guys on the roof?
Chick blowing bubble?
Weird shit coming out of sewer drain?
Weird shit on the Queen's crown?
What's in those bags by the fruit cart?
4 colored panels behind preachers?
Is that first gorilla holding somehting?
What/who is reflected in the spoon?

Someone at work had this! Glad it's been aired here.

The Doors, is my guess.

Look like keys.

Much as I love Scritti Politti, that is truly far-fetched!

What of the plant front left? And the mountain with trees on top by gorilla? (Was wondering if it's an Oasis, but it can't be.) And the party?

Where are the Talking Heads?

The Talking Heads are on the TVs, of course. Otherwise I share your questions. I've called the party Quiet Riot but that's taking some liberties...

Are you giving me The Doors?

Yes The Doors definitely! The date is just support for Green Day.

The Colour Field? Or is that too obscure?

(PS: Nah, those are Doors - Otis is right)

How about The Alarm - on the building next to the Pixies?

Blondie - the girl blowing a bubble above the Virgin sign?

Dunno...Blondie I assumed...but why gum? Britney? Too ambiguous.

Someone showed me the pic at work so I knew there was a full version...

What are the people in the other window? D12?
What are the keys the gorilla's holding?
