Doubleheaded Photo Contest: We Are The World

Since everyone seemed to enjoy last week's photo contest, I figured I would do another, but make it even more awesome. Impossible? Maybe.

So here's the idea. The above picture (click on it for a larger image) was taken during the recording of We Are The World, the smash hit from 1985.

Contest 1: Thirty of the artists who performed on the track are numbered. In an e-mail (bradford.pearson@gmail.com) or in the comments section, name those artists. Don't be lame and look up who sang on the track, or look at other people's answers, because I will know. I ALWAYS KNOW.

A few caveats: Number 15 is for the white man above it. Number 21 should be the man to the right of the number. Number 24 is for the man to the upper left of it. Numbers 26-30 correspond to the men immediately beneath them.

Contest 2: Write a caption/ headline. There are plenty of gems in this picture if you look closely enough.

Yes, you can enter both contests. The winner of Contest 2 gets first pick of either G Love and Special Sauce's "Coast to Coast Motel" or String Cheese Incident's "On The Road." The winner of Contest 1 gets the other album.

If you haven't figured it out yet, I'm trying to unload some CD's I no longer listen to. I'm trying to get some new albums to give away as we speak, so hopefully I don't have to hand out old albums forever.

Godspeed.

UPDATE: To clear things up, you don't have to name everyone. The person with the most correct wins.
