    An extensive list of bands liked by Morrisey and I don't think its any of them!!

    :confused:

    They're not on that list but Morrissey did like them according to some online sources-I have proof!

    They were a Scottish band who were quite gloomy and their name conveys ordinariness, much like The Smiths. Ignore the robbery in the picture, that was a red herring; other than that, it's an ordinary scene with...what?

    My comment posted before this one contained a hidden clue too.

    Spacehog.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,899 ✭✭✭UrbanSprawl


    That was too easy!! ...Quite liked that spacehog record back in the day.



  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,429 ✭✭✭Sheridan81


    Is Arghus going to take his/her go this time?

    Maybe we should change the rules so anyone can post a pic after the answer is revealed-just to move the thread along quicker?

    Hadn't spotted the surname only referenced in the original clue until now.

    I believe you are referring to Brian Eno
