Who are these people? Is the person on the left Mel Gibson? The guy on the right looks like the current King of Sweden when he was younger.
Who's Michael Jackson hanging with?
― Tuomas, Sunday, 5 September 2010 19:45 (thirteen years ago) link
Hold on, the guy in the last pic is the Aerosmith dude, right?
― Tuomas, Sunday, 5 September 2010 19:50 (thirteen years ago) link
seriously?
Keith Richard, Hall & Oates, Ron WoodTina Turner, Mick Jagger, Madonna, Bob Dylan
― StanM, Sunday, 5 September 2010 19:54 (thirteen years ago) link
xp Steve Rubell (co-owner of Studio 54), MJ, Steven Tyler (of Aerosmith), and Cherie Currie (from The Runaways).

Ah. Steve Rubell, not Billy Joel then. (Thought that who it was)
― StanM, Sunday, 5 September 2010 19:57 (thirteen years ago) link
OK from top to bottom:
Tina and RS + Madonna, Bob Dylan and Hall and Oates
Cohen and Taylor Swift
Pete Townsend top R and Eric Clapton and no clue about the others
I do not think the clown is supposed to be famous
Lou Reed, Bob Dylan and Tom Pettey - no clue about dude on right
Guy to M Jackson's right is Steven Tyler from Aerosmith. I don't know about the others.

lol'd at Mel Gibson/Lou Reed mixup.
― circa1916, Sunday, 5 September 2010 19:58 (thirteen years ago) link
Thanks! I had no idea who Cherie Currie or Steve Rubell were, I just thought it's just MJ and Tyler with some random people. And Hall & Oates is just a name to me, I didn't know what they look like. I guess I should've recognized Madonna, but she looks kinda unfamiliar in that pic.

Ha I thought Ron Wood was Geddy Lee.

Is the person on the left Mel Gibson?
That's Lou Reed, and sitting next to him it Bob Dylan. Seated in front of them is Tom Petty, and...
The guy on the right looks like the current King of Sweden when he was younger.
...the guy standing is Randy Newman.

Why would it be unexpected that these three are hanging together? Aren't they all American rock musicians?

Mel Gibson/Lou Reed mixup pretty amazing imo.
LOL RANDY NEWMAN! How weird.

The Townshend picture: I went to thewho.com and found it there. Caption: "1976-Pete backstage at Hammersmith Odeon with Don Williamsand Ronnie Lane, Danny Flowers (Don's guitarist) and Eric Clapton. 30th September."
― StanM, Sunday, 5 September 2010 20:05 (thirteen years ago) link

xxxp also Newman allegedly hates short people, believing that they have no reason to live...

Townshend / Clapton together in one picture, maybe that was unexpected at the time?
― StanM, Sunday, 5 September 2010 20:09 (thirteen years ago) link
Nope, that wasn't it - Townshend organised a benefit for Clapton a couple of years earlier and they were friends (first paragraph here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_Clapton#Solo_career )
