Viking23 Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 I was shown this site to search for 99 hidden groups / bands, don't ask me for any answers. https://quiz.ifour.co.uk/?utm_source=ifour&utm_campaign=panel&utm_medium=web Good luck. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanR Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 I got to 73 out of the 99 with some help from my hubby and daughter. Very good fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viking23 Posted December 26, 2016 Author Share Posted December 26, 2016 I got 22 just randomly selecting bands, but I can't link many to the clues lol. some of those clues quite cryptic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanR Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 That's where my daughter definitely helped me out. I got to around 50 on my own but there were some items I couldn't figure out but I knew had to mean something. She gave me answers of groups I had never heard of. There are bands in there from the 60s onwards so you really need to have knowledge that spans a number of decades. I saved the picture so that I could open it up in another editor and zoom in to see things like the names of the books on the shelves. Without doing that I wouldn't have got so many. I was also using Google to search for some names ... and some things are obvious once someone else says them. I've added another one now so am up to 74.

Viking23 Posted December 26, 2016 Author Share Posted December 26, 2016 With the sad news of George Michael, I tried "Wham" and that was in there too, don't know the clue though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanR Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 Wham is the name on the sweet wrapper on the arm of the purple chair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanR Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 I'm up to 91 out of 99. I have a feeling I am going to be very lucky to get anymore. Some of them are quite obscure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viking23 Posted December 26, 2016 Author Share Posted December 26, 2016 Try saying which ones you are short of, might help.lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanR Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 To be honest I'm not entirely sure now, having looked at it so many times and tried so many things. I have found out about bands that I had never heard of such as ... don't want to spoil it if anyone is also having a go. I am up to 93 and could post a very long list if anyone wants some answers to check off their own. Not convinced that I have come up with anything for the wreath on the back wall with a red ribbon, or the fact that there are two white lights on the ceiling, or the cushion on the floor by the purple chair. If anyone else has any bits they are stuck on let me know. I racked my brain for ages over the watermelon with sun glasses and the knife on the chair next to it! Then I discovered what they were and it all seemed so simple ... in a strange kind of way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deebee29 Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Stuck on the same ones Jean I feel I should know the watermelon one but just can't get it.(yet) I got the knife one by pure luck but can't say I've ever heard of them I'm up to 62 without any help (family or google) but some of the clues are so obscure but it is fun 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 I've got to 61 unaided, but I too must admit that some have been guesses based on what I see with no idea who the band in question are. On that basis I doubt I'll spend too much time chasing any more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deebee29 Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Got it...... Try an anagram of melon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanR Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 1 hour ago, deebee29 said: Got it...... Try an anagram of melon I do believe that the anagram of melon is actually on the couch ... and the melon itself is something else. I had a good look down the Facebook page of the creators as there are a couple of long threads related to this which have some clues on them ... and also tell you some of the things that are not relevant at all. So that was quite helpful and edged me up to 94. https://www.facebook.com/ifourdesignagency/?fref=ts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deebee29 Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 You're right there Jean, I hadn't made them out as lemons. I've seen that melon image before but can't for the life of me figure it out. I don't do Facebook so the link doesn't help me, I'll persevere a bit longer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
