Right then...
There was a time when the lineup of the Grateful Dead included a married couple. Name them. |

Mr. and Mrs. Uncle John? Or... The I don't have a Clues? |
A hint then: The keyboardist and a singer.
|
Keith Godcheaux (or however it's spelled) and his wife...Donna? Deanna? Man, I was never a huge Deadhead, but one of my old roommates was a huge fan of them; posters and records everywhere.
|
Precisely. Keith and Donna Jean. I too suffer a surfeit of trivia from living with deadheads. Apparently the one show I went to (Hampton '89? I think) was their worst in 15 years. So....
I digress. Take it away Anxst. |
Ah, the things we pick up by association.
Okay, I can't think of anything good. We'll go with an easy one. Danny Elfman started out in a performance art group in the early seventies that later morphed into Oingo Boingo. What was the original name of the crew, when they were a performance art group? |
I believe that would be "Who are the Mystic Knights of Onigo Boingo?" Alex?
I'll be shocked if I got that right. |

Cool!
Two amazing drummers died in 2008. Name both of them and the artist they both played drums for. |
I think 2 of Zappa's drummers died, right? If I'm right about that, I gotta guess Bozzio was one of 'em.......
|
If Terry Bozzio died, it's news to me (and it just might be)
Nope. I'm thinking of someone else. Just as brilliant as Zappa though. Any other guesses? |
Chad Whackerman and Neal Peart? (I don't know if either of them is dead, but worth a shot.)
|
that would be Mr. Mitch Mitchell and Buddy Miles that played for Jimi Hendrix
|
Mitch Mitchell, Buddy Miles- drummed for Jimi Hendrix

OK well here is mine -
Who holds the record for most #2 hits? (That is they never reached #1) Hint: the record is 5 |
i assume we're talking about billboard pop charts?
could you say the genre without giving the question away? |
Yes the billboard top 100 charts and the genre would be classic rock
|
Rolling Stones?
|
nope not the stones.
|
Ooh, I think I know this one!
Is it CCR? I remember a high school friend making this claim. He was a huge Creedence fan. |
Anxst you are correct. It is CCR with 5 songs toping out at number 2 never reaching #1. Your Turn
|
Okay.....can't think of anything else, so we'll go with this.
Farrokh Bulsara is the real name of what well known rock star? |
Freddy Mercury
|
Damn beat me to it.

How many Arabs in rock and roll any way? Not that many. However, there is one drummer from a Mid 80's trio who, though American, grew up in the Middle East in the 50's and '60s and this heavily influenced his distinctive drumming style.
Name him and the band that made him famous. |
stewart copeland/the police, yes?
|
Jahvohl! Take it away roachboy.
|
who is generally credited with having invented hip hop?
there are two possible correct answers: one would be the name of the person who is understood as having invented the form---particularly through the approach to using breaks. the second would be the name of the person who created the word hip hop (as a political and musical movement). |
