Trivial Feud: Rock & Roll Edition

Woohoo! I broke into the top ten!

Thanks for running this, 5 time champ.

(And thanks to They Might Be Giants, without whose cover of “Jessica” I wouldn’t have been able to name any Allman Brothers instrumentals.)

  1. Help
  2. Exile on Main Street
  3. Jimi Hendrix
  4. Herman’s Hermists
  5. Chicago
  6. Jessica
  7. Pink Cadillac
  8. Buddy Holly
  9. Pearl Jam
  10. Monster Mash

Me too. Best I’ve ever done on one of these games: number five … with a bullet, I hope! (And I hope also I’m no one-hit wonder.)

I’ll add my thanks for the game, 5 time champ!

About the same (bottom half) but excellent fun. Thanks again.

  1. Help!
  2. Sticky Fingers
  3. Jimi Hendrix
  4. The Animals
  5. Boston
  6. Blue Sky
  7. Slick Black Cadillac
  8. Ronnie Van Zant
  9. Pearl Jam
  10. Werewolves of London

I think everyone who said “Monster Mash” is either just lazy or doesn’t know the answer. It’s not Rock 'n Roll. It’s nowhere NEAR Rock 'n Roll. It’s just a convenient answer.

I vote that it be stricken!!!

Also, did Buddy Holly “rock?”

Don’t think I’m going to win this one…

Woah! Someone other than me did a Trivial Feud thread, and I missed it! :smack:

Thanks for running the game, 5 time champ! I placed smack in the middle yet again. Consistent mediocrity is my goal.

Oh, and I still think “Fire on High” is a good Halloween song. C’mon, it has backwards music and everything. Harumph!

Do you actually know what “Rock & Roll” is? Do you consider “Dion” and “Bill Haley and the Comets” Rock and Rollers?

The Monster Mash was a Rock & Roll song. It was just a silly novelty song, but it was a Rock & Roll song from 1962. It actually hit #1 at one point.

I see that there were two answers given that have Stevie Ray Vaughn as a rocker who died in a plane crash. I hope those don’t get counted because SRV died in a *helicopter * crash leaving the Alpine Valley concert venue in southern Wisconsin.

Damn! 6 of my 10 were the top answer and I *still *tied for 30th.

Should’ve said Jimi Hendrix…grumble grumble…

Fun game - thanks!

Thank you for running this 5 time champ, it was a lot of fun.

It does seem especially appropriate that iamthewalrus(:3= won it.

I would just like add, Woot! third place, cool!

In the OP, 5 time champ specifically said, the answer does not need to correct.
