I've gotten some of the easier ones....SPOILERS
-Rolling Stones in the background, those big rocks
-Guns N Roses, front left
-Blur, front right
-Radiohead, center
-Eels, between the two Elizabethan characters
-Smashing Pumpkins and Blind Melon, the fruit stand
-Alice In Chains, behind Blur (my favorite image)
-Scissor Sisters, next to Pumpkins
-Black Flag, on the building
-B-52s in the sky
-The Pixies, around the Virgin logo
-White Snake, on the light pole, left
-White Zombie, far left
-The Eagles, right
-Garbage, next to Radiohead
-Seal, behind White Zombie

beyond that, I'd really like to know what the 20+fishbowl is, and the smiling oranges on the fruit stand.

The Zombies(?) - on the left right above Guns 'N Roses
Blur (?) - Right behind the fruit stand
and I am guessing this is wrong, but that coin in there looks like The Ramones thing.  I am thinking that's wrong since I can't read what's on it, but it looks like it could be it.

It's White Zombie.
Yup.
It's 50 Cent. There's no direct references to anything iconic about the band, it's strictly visual.

And is that Twisted Sister back and to the left of Ratt?

After a couple of days of this, someone had better give us the solution to this.

EDIT: i counted blind melon and smashing pumpkins as one entry (6). instead of renumbering, the total is now appoximately 74.

and after all that i can't find any new ones.. are the ppl in the U2 building having a "bloc(k) party"?

white stripes- on the street.

men at work- on the roof near the eagles.

twisted sister?- the contortionists.

deep purple?- the purple apartment in deep focus

cranberries- under Korn

blondie- the chick blowing a bubble

also, if you go to the website, you'll see that there's more to this picture. for example, there's cake, a bunch of scorpions, and some other stuff to the left.

Dammit, I thought I actually found something.  I guess I missed those in Gamblour's post.
And apparently over to the left is also The Pet Shop Boys.

no. apes (which includes gorillas) and monkeys are both anthropoids, but they're not the same - monkeys hav tails, cannot swing from tree to tree (because of their shoulder bones), and hav similar sketal structure to a dog or cat. gorillas hav the same basic body structure as human beings, are able to swing branch to branch, posess a greater intelligence.

for more info check the link: http://science.howstuffworks.com/question660.htm

and no, i'm not jane goodall.
