Geocache Description:

Below is a list of the names of lead vocalists of different bands. Following the name is one of that band's top singles but only the initial letter of each word is given. When you have worked out the name of the band and the name of that particular song you need the date it was recorded. When you have the dates of the songs you will be able to work out the formula to find the hidden cache. There is unrestricted parking on the nearby roads.
