Musicians have weird names. Some of them were born with them, others made them up ("The Artist Formerly Known as Prince" - wtf?)

Below is a list of the birth names of musicians. Give me their popular stage name. All of them are famous, all of them have had at least one hit single. They range from the 60's to the present time. Some of them are really easy, some are completely wtf.

PM your answers by Tuesday.

I've got a bunch more, so if this is popular, I'll run those next week.

I can do all of the one point questions. But all of the other ones are pure guesses (except, oddly enough, one of the 3-pointers).

same boat as gus...except daryl dragon is going to keep me up tonight.

In it to win it imo

Off the top of my head I can do all the ones, 1 two, and 2 three's. I can probably hazard a guess at some of the others. I'm also troubled by Dayrl Dragon because a) It sounds really familiar but I can't place it, and b) with an awesome name like that, why would you need a stage name?

man i must suck at music.

i know one of these

probably

I acknowledge that the hint may not help at all in answering the quiz. YMMV.

I have 5 of the ones and 1 of the 2s

if I somehow get a few more I might enter

Wow, I know a lot of these!

I will answer when I get home tonight.

Something I have a chance at winning ! LOL!

At first glance I know all 1's, four 2's, and two 3's. Will probably enter later.

I know all but two of the 1's, four of the 2's. Only knew one of the 3-pointers for sure, but guessed two more.
Good quiz.

I knew 7, 5 and 4 respectively. submitted

Majorly tilting after looking up some of these. I knew them! Just couldn't come up with them at the time.

Bumpity Bump for a few more entries
