alright, i dont know if this has been done before, but here's how it works:

the preceeding person names a band or artist, and the next person has to name an artist or band that somehow relates to the previous one. (they have to explain what the connection is as well). So after awhile, it just becomes a huge web of connections. Simple enough?

eg:

Genesis

 (REPLY)

Peter Gabriel- was  the front man for Genesis.

GET IT? should be simple enough

something pretentious

Joni Mitchell (sang a nice duet with P.G. "My Secret Place," on her album Chalkmark in a Rainstorm.)
