Shiiiiit..i thought you would have gotten it...

"The Men they couldnt hang"....duh...an overwhelming groan of "FFS"..:D

Men was easy...and a noose would have been too easy...and the cherry was the record label...simples....just like you lot.....:p

Weepsie · 14-08-2018 1:08pm

If anything the hamster was a complete misdirection for most of us I'd say.

A folk punk band? Yet you have an issue with Son Volt. I think we all have different, yet wonderful ideas of Alternative and Indie music

I and probably every one else apart from yourself never heard of them much less what record label they were on..

Indeed.....in my sick mind, an "indie" band is one that appears on an independant label....not just becaust they have dyed black hair and loud guitars...:)

Old enough myself but guess was into the mainstream alternative band like pearl jam in the 90' ..anyways

Is it possibly wild guess this one ..

Leonard Cohen?

NapoleonInRags · 14-08-2018 3:57pm

Yes, the person in the picture is Leonard Cohen...the name of the band is derived from this

UrbanSprawl · 14-08-2018 8:00pm

So the guy is from Montreal ..ok then.

UrbanSprawl · 14-08-2018 9:16pm

That was a good puzzle..I knew he was Canadian but never thought of his birthplace..You did say the band name was derived from his name or that's the way I read it so I was checking kings of leon -but no, named after one their grandfathers...the boring b@stards:pac:
