Rock & Roll Trivial Feud II (75 players)

The Game Room
101

Really, it’s pretty much impossible to accurately guess anyone under 45 with these questions. I wouldn’t worry about it.

102
  1. Who’s Next
  2. Bad, Bad Leroy Brown
  3. Tommy
  4. Sir Paul McCartney
  5. Hey Jude (don’t remember the actual one, just guessing which answer will be most popular)
  6. Cheap Trick Live at Budokan
  7. Rod Stewart
  8. Lynyrd Skynyrd
  9. American Pie
  10. Bridge Over Troubled Water (I always forget if the last word is “water” or “waters”)

This 48-year-old guesses that the post above mine was made by someone around half my age.

103

You got it right. What impresses me is seeing the majority of people getting the singular “Sound of Silence” right. The album it’s on is called Sounds of Silence, so it’s really easy to get that one wrong.

104
  1. Quadrophenia
  2. Time in a Bottle
  3. Rock n Roll High School
  4. Paul McCartney
  5. Help
  6. Frampton Comes Alive
  7. Mick Jagger
  8. Lynyrd Skynyrd
  9. In A Gadda Da Vida
  10. Sound of Silence
105
  1. Tommy
  2. Time in a Bottle
  3. Woodstock
  4. Sir Elton John
  5. I Want to Hold Your Hand
  6. Peter Frampton Comes Alive
  7. Bruce Springsteen
  8. Lynyrd Skynyrd
  9. Inna-Gadda-Da-Vita (17:05, IIRC)
  10. The Sounds of Silence

Poster above me - wild ass guess, maybe 50?

106
  1. Name an album by The Who
    Tommy
  2. Name a song by Jim Croce
    Bad Bad Leroy Brown
  3. Name a rock & roll movie
    Help
  4. Name a rocker who has been knighted by Queen Elizabeth
    Paul McCartney
  5. Name the first Beatles song you ever heard
    I Want to Hold Your Hand
  6. Other than The Who, name a famous Live album
    Frampton Comes Alive
  7. Name a rocker who married a supermodel
    Rod Stewart
  8. Name a Southern rock band
    Alabama
  9. Name a long song
    In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida
  10. Other than Mrs. Robinson name a song by Simon & Garfunkel
    Sound of Silence

I’ll also guess 50 for the poster above me…

107

Ah. But
a) It’s “Just for fun”
b) I’m lousy at guessing ages, even of people I’m face-to-face with and having a conversation
c) It’s a compliment to be guessed at + your actual age when in an intellectual and/or artistic conversation. It proves that you are mentally/artistically advanced.

That never happens to me. I’m always guessed younger than I am. :slight_smile:

108
  1. Who’s Next
  2. Bad Bad Leroy Brown
  3. Help
  4. Paul McCartney
  5. She Loves You
  6. Frampton Comes Alive
  7. Billy Joel
  8. Lynyrd Skynyrd
  9. In-a-gadda-da-vida by Iron Butterfly
  10. Bridge Over Troubled Water
109

And that’s 75 by my count (76 if you decide to let my friend Rob’s entry count). (But that wouldn’t be fair to astorian then, would it?) (And Rob’s not even a member here!) (Just who does that guy think he is anyway?) (You know what? Screw that guy! Comin’ in here all “Hey, that looks like fun. Can I play?” Well, no you can’t! This is a serious competition for people who belong here and actually cared enough to pay for the prive…) (Uhh…moving on…)

Just a friendly warning that you’re entry may not be counted. (It happened to me in the last game.) (But hey, it was still fun, right?) (You can still compare results.) (And I could very easily have miscounted, anyway.)

(These are asides and belong in parenthesis, right?) (Parentheses?) (Or are these ellipses? (and is there a rule about using too many? (and is that in a row or all together?))) (No, wait. Don’t tell me. I don’t care and won’t remember anyhow.)

Why yes, I am easily amused. I would think that was pretty obvious by now.

Be on the lookout for Tough Trivial Feud Monday morning 2/4/08

114

Top five! WOOHOO!!!

115

Good Og, 75 players and I come in #73?

I really need to stop playing this game.

116

Yay, 2nd! If Mullinator is unable to fulfill his duties for any reason, I’m ready to step in.

117

hmmm - even if I had said Ina Godda Da Vida (which would have made it worth 18) I still would have been in fourth place. Oh well.

118

In my defense, I misread “long song” as “love song.” Still probably wouldn’t have made it into the top half of the list, but who knows? (I’ve got to stop second-guessing myself – I decided against the top answer on three questions! :mad: )

119

Wow, I’d like to thank all the little people that made this victory possible. And really, you’re all little people to me. Heavy is the head that wears the crown. Even heavier is the iron fist I will rule all of you with.

120

I Put place numbers in for those (like me) to lazy to count.
Still cant crack the top half.
