Cher, Slash, Puff Daddy, Lady Gaga. We all know that some musicians use stage names. Some choose to use a different name because their birth name can be confused with someone else, some are given a new name by their managers, and some have to use a different name because the one on their birth certificate is just too goofy for the music industry! Some stage names are obviously fake, but some aren't and you may not even realize that it's a stage name at all. How well do you know musical stage names?
You need to determine the stage names for the following well-known musicians. Then, convert the indicated letter in that stage name to a number, given that a=1, b=2, ..., z=6 (don't count spaces). Once you've got that done, insert each answer into this to get the final coordinates:
