J.J.!!!!….. Are you trying to force me to not only sweep this quiz, putting me in contention of maybe winning the whole ball of wax, AND, worst of all, give-up my attempt to out-neg-a-tize the entire community?….. That’s dirty quizzing, Sir, and I refuse to be sucked in (the ’70’s)….. I can at least blow the extra 20 point bonus by waiting for someone else to answer some of them….. Take that, J……..

For #1 I was going to guess “Angie”. But, meditating on years of MR ramblings, I’m going to say, instead, that “Angie” is the answer to #7.

“The Greatest Rock and Roll Band In The World” Wow, what a brazen attempt to suck up to the host!
Everybody knows that Styx is the greatest rock and roll band ever.

# 20 Drift Away
All the rest of them “You Can’t Always Get What You Want”
October 1st, 2007 at 3:57 pm
Speaking of #20…I was under the impression that there wasn’t just one as your question implies.
October 1st, 2007 at 10:40 pm
MR: Hows this, For every one you don’t answer, I tack on 1(one) point against your now -16? effectively putting you at -36.and every one that you answer correctly I award you 1(one) positive point.
huskysooner: I did not come up with that one. their tour manager started using that in the late ’60s. But just between you and me (I agree Styx is da bomb).
Lsdrobo: -2 nuff said.
Izzard: My son you score the 1st point of the match. According to my sources (which are correct by the way) There is only one that they did backgrounds on officially. Unless MR finds some smart ass way to tell me that I’m wrong.
See ya all when I get back.

Being the moldy, oldie I am, I will take MR’s stance since I also consider myself in the same class (age). Will let the whippersnappers have a crack (bad choice of words). The last word should be chance.

Sunn, we’ll give ’em ’til Sunday and then “The Whip Comes Down”….. Put that link in your “Alice (in) Chains” and smoke it….. Screw them positive points, J.J., this is war between us old and wise(asses) vs. those who should know some musical history….. I think I’ll go climb a “Porcupine Tree” and obtain “Nirvana”…..
October 5th, 2007 at 1:12 pm
MR, to make it more intriguing, memory only. No book, cd, album, internet, dvd lookups-only our fading memories. If you’ve already looked these up, honestly abstain from answering.
