OK, without reading reading dkh's list:

57. Green Day (You got before I posted).
58. Bush(?)
59. Hole(?)

Two more possibilities:
60. Cornershop(?)
61. Dinosaur Jr(?)

'Pavement' I guess is a bit obvious?

Not many. Mostly I was looking at it, looking at your list, looking at it againand going "Oh, that's what that's meant to be ...".

I thought of Bush, but I was uncertain whether in the picture it would be classified as a bush or a plant.

I think I see one that wasn't listed....

The Styx. (To the left of Matchbox 20)

I thought those were Nine Inch Nails.

I'm curious about the wavy things between the Queen and the Prince, though, and the roots coming out of the sewer?

That guy by the mailbox might represent The Postal Service, perhaps. And the Reservoir Dogs-looking couple might be Fun Lovin' Criminals.

Yeah, I thought of those being The Styx at first, but they look a lot more like Nine Inch Nails. :)

And I also think Snarky's right about the stuff coming out of the sewer grate being The Roots. Kinda hard to tell what those are, though.

I think I see Crowded House, Cypress Hill, and the Dead Kennedys. I don't think any of those have been mentioned (I didn't look at the spoilers).

Ooh, Crowded House and Cypress Hill! I didn't think of that!

Yeah, I caught the Dead Kennedys (the two pictures on the wall).

There's a band called The Roots? That didn't even occur to me. I was just: "What are those roots supposed to be?"  ;D

It's not on the list, and probably the two guys on the right with the surfs are Beach boys but initially I thought of Nada Surf... Well...

Has anyone mentioned 'Pet Shop Boys'? They're at the very left, looking at the picture in the link Al Ninio posted. That's one of the few I managed to get - I'm not very good at this...Ã,  ???
