That's one I thought of.Culture Club
Both decent shouts. I feel like I should know someone else in The Cure, but I don't, and he's the only mainstay.Boomtown Rats
The Cure
A three piece band and I could name 5 o' them without thinking.
Anyone with half a musical brain knows which band Ozzy was in and who Tony Iommi is.
I could name two and half other Killers, but the rest are fair shouts.Likely to be SEB as fuck but
Maroon 5
Killers
Lightning Seeds
No Doubt
ELO
Nine Inch Nails
Even normal plebs will have heard of Jermaine Jackson manS club Juniors (Frankie bridge)
Jackson 5
Furious 5
Thats why my answer to the op was "about 80% " rather than naming peopleEvidently. However let’s be honest - the nature of threads like these is to attract music snobs! Normal “punters” wouldn’t give a shit anyways![]()
AFTERSCan’t believe someone mentioned The Sweet! Four names up there with the Beatles and the Stones
I took the thread as the average person (which would probably change with the age group tbf) but I'd imagine a lot of people would know who Robert Plant and Jimmy Page were but wouldn't have a clue about Jones and Bonham.The whole thing's turned into a daft argument bout how much a certain type of person might not know. It's almost musical snobbery in reverse.
"Oh I've heard of Tony Iommi, but Joe Bloggs hasn't, so it doesn't count." Fuck off man.
Sort of, but the bass player Simon Gallup has been with Robert Smith since the early days of the Cure, he left after the tour for the Pornography album but was back by the Head On The Door and has been ever present sinceThat's one I thought of.

Depends what you mean by a normal punter.
Given some of the other ones you’ve pulled up, I’m surprised you’ve said Hole is a good answer - Melissa Auf De Maur is fairly famous in her own right.These are all good answers...
