Take note of what Gobblezebub said.
I am not really sure what you're looking for here.

Goddammit, I hate having to explain the obvious. Y'see, Billz is exactly right. A go-go is a room or a dance club, which is entirely different than a go-go dancer. And it's probably safe to assume the 3 chicks holding hands don't represent a dance club - they may, in fact, represent go-go dancers, but I don't know of a band called the Go-Go Dancers. Just like I don't know of a band called the Smashed Pumpkin.

I'm pretty sure whatever you just said couldn't be muddier.

But are you not aware of a band called the go-gos? my whole point was to argue against what you are arguing against. I am not saying it is literal. Good god, man. you're jumping down my throat for agreeing with my original response to the girl who said, "weren't there four go-gos?"

Fuck it. I'm done. My point is that it is literal. The crows have to be black to be the Black Crowes. The snake has to be white to be Whitesnake. The dude has to be in the act of smashing pumpkins to be the Smashing Pumpkins. And the 3 chicks? They would each have to be a 60's style discotheque full of mini-skirted dancers in order to be the Go-Gos.

Would it have killed the artist to put a Wire in the picture?

ok. finally. I see what you are saying. However. My point to the girl, originally, is that even though I can see how what you're saying is true, that the black crows have to be black crows, the issue of singular and plural is not something that has to be exact....for instance...how many members of The Black Crows were there....because her argument against it being the go-gos was "weren't there 4 go-gos". Not, "isn't a go-go a location full of dancers?" or something to that effect. I am sorry for misunderstanding you.

For instance, we all agree that it is smashing pumpkins based on the guy with the sledge-hammer, but it only looks like he's gotten one pumpkin smashed. All this to say that I don't think that this picture is an exact science when it comes to the application of plural and singular.

Actually, he is in the process of smashing pumpkins (note correct use of plural), so that one, at least, is right.

Ha! There *is* an Alarm. Took a larger window to see it.

'smashing' is actually an adjective, but you guys are awfully cute.

Also, there are a number of Men Without Hats.

In this case, it's a gerund. Predicate Adjective or Participle is incorrect, because the pumkins are not "smashing", unless it's in an Austin Powers kind of way, but the picture is of one in the act of "smashing", so Gerund.

To miss the point completely, there were 5 Go-Go's.

That's exactly how Billy Corgan intended it. "Smashing" is supposed to mean "handsome," "sharp," etc........
