70%...but guessed on at least 4 or 5.
Lot of metal bands...very little about actual classic rock bands.

all that conclusively proved was that my knowledge of the Raymoans and oiks with tattoos is non-existent. 

...and that's not going to change any time soon.
What?

85 not bad, many were a process of elimination as I knew who they weren't, kind of surprised I didn't recognize Cliff Burton

Another epic fail. Only 9 good answers. It seems that the visual aspect of rock is not my cup of tea, especially when the focus is on some genres with which I am not so deeply involved.

Epic fail for me too.
I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

I seem to be at the top of the game here at 85%. Definitely a rocker. The ones I missed were all punkers, so I don't really care, although I correctly identified The Ramones. The 80s were strongly represented, too much so.

I scored a whopping 15% with no guessing. Most of those pics look like MTV acts, not rock bands. And Davy Jones? Really? The three I got correct only serve to reveal my age.

Wasn't this in another thread?

If you are reffering to another quiz I posted a few days ago, then no. It's not the same quiz.
The other one was 100% Progressive, and this one is about Rock in general.
If anybody wants please visit: http://www.gfreedomathina.blogspot.com/

This is my Blog mostly about Rock music, but also a few other things as well.

You are most welcome!

Thank you. :)

Humorously, I don't own albums from 100% of these bands. Although I did own a Ramones album once.

Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

My exact score as well, and probably for the same reason, way outside my listening circle.
Thank you for supporting independently produced music
