Band Names

39 comments

- I was confused at first
  I thought all 6 was 1 joke, like the standard 1 joke per comic, right?
  Then I saw the Stones, and thought the cadence was … 3 rows 3 jokes and the background colors are green (first row), grey (second row), and then … no I’m overthinking this
  Then I saw Zeppelin in the 3rd row.
  Oh, it’s 6 jokes!!!
  Eventually I got all the jokes. So that’s my accomplishment for the day.
  
  And why is the leopard shouting at the human skeletons?!?! LoL
- I got to the 4th box and was so confused that I decided to read the title.
- My dumb brain read "brand names" (I guess that still makes sense, since a band's name is their brand) and I was thoroughly confused.
- Omg I read the captions as lyrics and then whrn I got to the last one I realized what the point was. Derp.

counting crows rolling stones grateful dead def leppard led zeppelin the doors
- Gd and dl i couldnt figure out thank you

I read the comic before the title. The story was very confusing..
- I read the title as Brand Names and I was trying to figure out what the mystery brands were, until I realized it said bands.

Yeesh. All you lot saying "The Doors" for the last panel - it's clearly "Two Door Cinema Club" (it was genuinely the first band that popped into my head when I saw the pic)
- I thought it was "Two Doors Down".

I wish there were more commenters so someone else would have already asked for help on this one - but I get to be that dumb guy today. Rolling stones... What are the others
- Counting Crows
  Rolling Stones
  Grateful Dead
  Def Leppard
  Led Zeppelin
  The Doors
  
  Oh man I feel dumb. Thank you so much. Those are awesome
  I kept getting stuck on 3 doors down as the last solution and couldn't think of any other door bands
  
  Aha! Thank you. So there isn't a band called polite skeletons?
  
  Thanks, I couldn't figure out the Def Leppard one.
- Counting Crows
  The Rolling Stones
  Grateful Dead
  Def Leppard
  Led Zeppelin
  The Doors
- Counting Crows
  Def Leopard
  Led Zeppelin
  Grateful Dead
  The Doors

I feel old that I understood all of these right away.
- Deaf Leopard was formed 46 years ago in 1977.
  
  Well.. I was 9 when they formed. What's your point?

Wait wait, I've got another one!
[Two male Neanderthals dressed in female Neanderthal clothing and makeup]

Counting Crows
Rolling Stones
Grateful Dead
Def Leopard
Led Zeppelin
The Doors
Counting Crows seems a bit out of place among the others. They're all classic rock bands except Counting Crows.
Let's see what I can come up with....
[A pile of red peppers]
[A portrait of a family, but the children are being pointed at by arrows]
[A forest of anthropomorphic trees, screaming]
[A picture of heaven with an enlightened soul as the center piece]
[The word "avenge" writen on a piece of paper that is folded 7 times]
[A man jerking off]

Okay the crows one is stumping me but I know as soon as someone tells me I’m going to hate myself for not getting it.
- Counting Crows
  
  🤦🏻‍♂️
  I was going “the hell is 3 crows….”
- Made me think of beetles taxman

It was nice seeing Jamie Hyneman's realisation when the mythbusters [Adam] proposed making a lead balloon that would actually float.

Here's another - [A lot of geckos. An unreasonable amount, if you will.]
