    Dammit, name it! Exclaimation points!

    If anyone remembers that Excel quiz on NBA players that was floating around a while back, here's a new one on musical acts.

    Very Anglo-heavy, with one spelling issue that I noticed (a band with the name "Traveling" in its name needs to have an extra "L" added to it).

    I got 140 in my first go, probably would have gotten 5-6 more if I knew how to spell some bands' (Evanesecnnseence?) name. And I have no idea how N'Sync does their spelling.

    If you know English pop/shoegazer/or Happy Mondays-like bands, you're in luck. There are 270 choices.

    Here 'tis:

    EDIT: Apparently, you can go back and re-change guesses, unlike the NBA version.

    Okay...I must be an idiot. I only got 91. But some of those pictures are horrible. Bernard Sumner looks terrible..took me a while to recognize him. I still haven't gotten it to recognize when I type in Guns and Roses...Oh wait , think I just figured it out...Guns 'N' Roses...thats right. It's way too technical on the spelling.
