Okay, with some help from friends at work:

Crowded House
Cowboy Junkies
Yellowman
Screaming Trees (in the back. maybe?)

And then I cheated and found:

White Stripes
Hole
Dinosuar Jr.

Corrections:

Kat, what I think you thought was Velver Revolver is actually The Sex Pistols.

And what I thought was The Presidents of the United States of America is actually Dead Kennedys.

Actually, if you go to the orginal site, you'll see a bigger picture and more band references. I see Pet Shop Boys and possibly Cake.

Chris and I have some more, this is fun
blues brothers (the 2 MIB with the glasses)
spandeau ballet (sp?)
Lover Boy (the couple kissing with the hand on the butt of the girl)
Scorpions (see the larger pics, it's in the left lower hand corner by the cake)
Eminen (M&M - on the floor above the fish - that's the peanut m&m's - was my favorite pre-vegan days)

Here's a few guesses:
Butthole surfers
REO Speedwagon
We thought Jefferson Airplane - but B52's would be it.
King Diamond - but jewel is better

-great job everyone, we came up with 40 before we checked your list! now it's time for some zzzs,

pink floyd had to be in it somewhere. how about abba (just got back from mama mia)? What's up with the people on the roof? King kong? The Hari Krishnas? The bikini shop? The dog by the cake? the pineapple? the bag of onions? where are the wall flowers? Main Street has to mean something? I'm hoping that this helps someone else figure it out. Subway has to have a meaning. The color boards by the hari krishnas?

ok really going to sleep now, i'll check it again l8r.

And A Few That Need Some Explaining...

The Flaming Lips- If you zoom on the picture, the two people kissing are clearly Girls, therefore they're lesbians, which is gay and another word for gay is "Flaming", and since they're kissing "Lips"

311- If you look at the Guns and Roses part, you count the guns, you get 11, you count the bouqets, you get 3... 311
