NAME THAT FACE: contest, volume 1

How 'bout a change-up from Name That Tune?! Do you all recognize the FACES of our new wave godfathers? There's 25 of them below. Send me an email with their number and name, and I'll send you back the answers. Address is in the image. Each picture is worth 2 points with the final hidden one worth 5.

Again, they're all pretty iconic, so I expect some high scores - this should be fun, not torturous. Hopefully some will be obvious, some mysterious, and some infuriatingly just out of grasp. I'll run this contest through this coming Friday July 1st at 8pm then post the scores and answers. [b]Please do not post the answers to this thread![/b]

Final note that all these photographs were taken by the great concert photographer Phillipe Carly. I am using these in this unarguably not-for-profit context then will discard them soon afterwards.

Lemme know if this is fun...

What a great idea!
If I can't remember the name of the person, can I just say " The guy from The Police"? or "The singer from REM?" [:D]

That's no cigarette: it's a doobie. Which means that it's clearly Bill Clinton.

Like I said in the contest instructions...

[b]PLEASE DO NOT POST THE ANSWERS IN THIS THREAD[/b]

[b]PLEASE HIT THE TRASH CAN ICON TO DELETE YOUR ANSWERS[/b]

If you're interested in playing, email them to me and I'll tally them up at the end of the week. It's just like the Name That Tune game, except no tunes. In each NTT or NTF game, as in most games, questions, and in life itself, reading and understanding the question is part of the test!!! [:(!][:(!][:(!]
