    I’d say:

    1. Milli or Vanilli (I think it was Milli that died)
    2. Keith Moon
    3. Marvin Gaye
    4. Had a guess, but now drawing a blank (but NOW WAY is that Sid Vicious!)
    5. Michael Hutchence
    6. umm..The guy from Skynyrd that died in the plane crash??? (I should know his name…)

    1. Looks like nobody bothered to figure out this MILLI or VANILLI’s real name…neither do I.
    2. Keith Moon, but what was that t-shirt?
    3. Marvin Gaye
    4. I can’t beleive no one’s got the answer. That’s Mick Ronson, the spider man himself.
    5. I’ve been a fan of INXS for whole my fxxking life, but I didn’t reconize Michael here; sorry Michael.
    6. Looks like David Crosby, ha ha! But my vote goes to Ronnie Van Zant. Are these the Fantasy label t-shirts?

    Nope! Number 4 and 6 are still unidentified.

    Various labels and all are currently listed on eBay.

    Hint on #4 – he played guitar.

    Hint on #6 He has a twin brother and an older brother, both of whom were in the same group.

    The Who image was taken from this:

    OK!…thanks for the clue JJ. #6 is ANDY GIBB!! That HAS to be right! Still no idea for #4 though.

  9. Jimmy J

    September 15, 2010 at 6:18 pm

    Maurice. Damn you JJ. Haha.

    OH, I’ve got it! #4 is Randy Rhoads! Wow!

    By the way, Maurice Gibb is a good quiz; I still can’t believe he’s not around anymore.

    Can I say that Mick Ronson and Randy Rhoads are quite look-a-like from the screen print here? And they are both played quitar? I think it was a good quess right?

    By god you’ve got it man! You’re right about Mick. Good work peeps, this was a tough round.

    P.S. Rob Pilatus is dead, but I don’t know for sure if he was Milli or Vanilli.
