Thanks guys.
27 - Still no idea
31 - I forgot you'd mentioned Squeeze! Still can't recognise Jools though
41 - Got it. Wouldn't have recognised them them though.
49 - Still no idea
65 - Got it. Had no idea what they looked like though.
97 - Got it. I recognise the bloke now.
Clues for you guys:
10 - 16th President, recreational area.
12 - Electricians?
16 - Vince Clarke was originally a member of this 80s synth/pop act who are still going today.
47 - Determined, 4th letter (it's Jack Black's band if you didn't know)
54 - Animal lads? They fought for their right to party.
188 - F,B,T. They did a song with Bananarama in the early 80s.
207 - Imposters? The main guy's actually at the back. A Madchester-type band.
184 I've no idea on either.
I need clues for:

Last post on this topic!!! Finally given up on this difficult and frustrating quiz. Score is 250. Only 20 short!!
For anyone who's interested need the following:-
86,88,90,112,130,169,206,209,215,219,221,227,234,
237,241,247,258,259,250,263.
There you have it. They're all brit pop/indie bands; have no idea what they look like!!. One of them's an all girl band...can't think of many and two are old artists.
Any further help appreciated.

86 - Had a hit with 'Mr Jones'.
90 - Eddie Vedder's band
112 - There's a young George Ivan Morrison there...
130 - From Bradford I think. Rock music, but biggest hit was 'Tequila'.
169 - Mid 80s band. Harked back to doo-wop, soul and Motown. Choreographed dance moves and tight musicianship.
206 - Lead singer Bobby Gillespie. Had an album called 'Screamadelica'.
209 - Never heard of them.
215 - Very recent one-hit-wonders from
219 - One of their members famously chucked a bucket of water over John Prescott at some function. I think it's spelt wrong.
234 - Can't tell you a lot about them, except they're early 90s, and have a stupid name about someone's nuclear waste receptacle.
237 - As above, but this time they're named after after someone who's a perpetual shagging engine.
241 - The US equivalent of Hear'Say.
250 - I know bugger-all about them.
258 - US all-girl grunge shockers. Famous for chucking a used tampon into the crowd at Reading Festival.
When PG posted his thread with all the answers I gave in to temptation and filled in the blanks. I still win though!

Super cool and many thanks. Hooray!!...now completed it!!
Would never have got 196,209, 234....who the heel are these!, 247 and 250. Funny thing is, I've heard of some of these band but never knew what they looked like!!! 250 doesn't even appear in the latest Guiness Book of hit singles!!! Had a job correctly spelling 237 but got there in the end.!!! 237's name had been floating around for some time......found it on a Brit Pop compilation. Would never had got L7 either without the tampon clue!!
I'm happy know and will now leave you alone!!!
219 - One of their members famously chucked a bucket of water over John Prescott at some function. I think it's spelt wrong.
Ok how is it spelt in this quiz then if its not Chumbawumba?
Chumbawamba.
