Also, the Von Bondies and the Dandy Warhols. It's all the same to me.

They're not fit to enjoy the benefits of oxygen.
Thrills, Chills and isn't there a band called The Kills too?

I do confuse Robert Palmer and Robert Plant when talking about either of them, though, which is dumb.
And I still don't know the difference between Corey Hart and John Waite.

Replacements and Rembrandts, upon a time. I was aghast for a while that the 'Mats had reformed just to make the 'Friends' theme, before I realized my error.
Phil Collins/Peter Gabriel, because they're both overbearing ponces.
There's a band like Six By Seven that's Six From Seven or something, that I get mixed up with.

And because Pig Destroyer did a track called "Black Dice" every time I see something about Black Dice I have to take a second to remember that they're not Pig Destroyer. If you see what I mean.

Same here, that's why I was amazed when Van Dyke Parks ended up working with Brian Wilson again. I was thinking, "but isn't he dead?"

I'm sure I've mentioned this before but for years I sorta ignored - very foolishly and to my detriment, it turns out - Sleepytime Gorilla Museum, because I was confusing them with emo band Sleeptime Trio (who were pretty good as I recall, just not really my thing these days)

When Olivia Rodrigo started to get popular my mind kept reading it as Elaine Radigue. So I would glance at article headlines about Olivia Rodrigo’s new album and thought that people were super excited about a new Elaine Radigue reissue.
