[quarkncover]

King Kong

(thought they were a band
{From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

The rock band King Kong was formed in Louisville, Kentucky, in the early 1990s by Ethan Buckler, the original bassist in the band Slint.

King Kong's seminal work was it's third full-length effort, Me Hungry. A fully-conceived concept album, the work tracks the crossing tales of a cave man and a yak as they navigate the onset of the ice age.})

My daughter says there's a band called Spoon, but I didn't want to submit it as an answer cause that'd be cheating. I've never heard of them if they exist, so I hereby submit:

I went to this site (http://www.heavy.com/heavy.php?channel=virginGame) and discovered that the left side of this pic is cropped. There are a few more things on the left side.

Black Crowes and The Carpenters are the correct answers. If you go to that site I linked above, you can submit answers and it will tell you if they are right.

Ummm...The B-52s...LOVE SHACK, baby.

And those are very specifically B-52 jets, btw.

edited again...lol as you were replying!

I wasn't doubting the band, but that the planes were B-52s. But upon further review, I was wrong. B-52s are in. Jets are out.

crosswalk = white stripes?
