Three degrees of seperation

@JC Reckon Bowie is Link C B could also be Iggy who inducted NIN into the Hall of Fame and well Bowie right.

@JC said in Three degrees of seperation:

NIN recorded "I'm Afraid of Americans" written and recorded by David Bowie, who was Marc Bolan's best mate. Will that do?

Not enough steps

Not Bowie as a link. Probably more than one answer but I have gone for a very strong one

[Crucial]

You lot aren't much fun.
Clue - an 80s band is the first link.

Is Johnny Cash one of the links through Hurt?

[Bovidae]

@Crucial An 80s band. That narrows it down.

[dogmeat]

@Hooroo I thought of that but couldn't think of a the next link

[mariner4life]

I can do

NIN (well Trent Reznor)
Is in the video of I'm Afraid of Americans by David Bowie. The two toured together in 95/96
David Bowie's long time producer was Tony Visconti
Tony Visconti was the producer for T-Rex
Marc Bolan

[dogmeat]

Is the 80's band Joy Division? I know they were heavily influenced by Bolan and NIN have covered them a few times but can't work out an intermediate link?

Well thought but the first is NIN so Reznor is a link.
Probably too many obtuse ways to do this.

NIN were fans of and recorded songs by Soft Cell.
Sit Cells biggest hit was a cover of Tainted Love by Gloria Jones
Jones was driving the car that hit a tree and killed passenger Bolan

was also mother of his kid wasn't she

also, that is fucking obscure man, no one was going to get that!!! "was fans of" jesus

[dogmeat]

@mariner4life yeah could have:
T Rex
An Artist who drove through Richmond Deer Park while T Rex were on the Radio
Another artist who drove through Richmond Deer Park who played the same venue as NIN
NIN

@dogmeat Or if we allow influences and fans...

A. NIN : their wiki page says Reznor is a fan of...
B. Gary Numan : who as a "a teenage millionaire pretending it's a whizz kid world" inspired the song Teenage Wildlife by...
C. David Bowie: who was best mates with...
D. Marc Bolan

As you can see, I'm determined to shoehorn Bowie in there, because today I'm wearing my Blackstar tee shirt.
