If there were unlimited degrees of separation, then even I would be linked to Kevin Bacon and this Band to Band Links site would be more fun. Took me three tries just to get any result (then I noticed there were only 726 eligible bands in the game). Finally, the Who linked to the Beastie Boys after 25 shifts in personnel.

A band is officially regarded as connecting to another if they both share a legitmate band member (as opposed to guest appearances) who played on a particular band recording which was released publically as either an offical band album or as a compilation appearance. The nice part about the program’s algorithm is that it guarantees the shortest route between two bands regardless of their degree of separation.
