Tully Mars 09-29-2009 02:02 PM

Pigpen. Can't think of his real name.

Tophat665 09-29-2009 03:03 PM

Correct! Real name Ron McKernan. Take it away Tully.

Tully Mars 09-30-2009 02:30 AM

Ok, where did Radiohead play it's first gig?

Tully Mars 10-01-2009 03:01 AM

No one?

Clue- tavern that lunched a few bands back in the 90's.

mixedmedia 10-01-2009 03:24 AM

I'm a big radiohead fan, but it's limited mostly to the music...I don't know much about their history and all that...

Tully Mars 10-03-2009 03:11 AM

Ok, times up The Jericho Tavern, Oxford.


Ok, lets try this again...

What Detroit rocker co-wrote The Eagles #1 hit "Heartache Tonight?"

jewels 10-03-2009 04:08 AM

It doesn't sound Henley to me so I've got to guess Glenn Frey?

mixedmedia 10-03-2009 05:40 AM

Would that be Bob Seger?

Tully Mars 10-03-2009 06:38 AM

That would be Bob Seger.

Yer up.

mixedmedia 10-03-2009 07:36 AM

Thanks!

Which 1970's-80's punk/post-punk outfit used to open their own shows as a satirical Christian soft-rock band named 'Dove'?

Tully Mars 10-04-2009 09:34 AM

No idea but sounds like something the Velvet Underground would do.

mixedmedia 10-04-2009 10:06 AM

nope, not even close...think a little later on...

Tully Mars 10-04-2009 10:14 AM

Hmm, Dove... Devo?

Well done! You are correct, sir...you're up.

Tully Mars 10-04-2009 10:39 AM

Never heard that before, complete shot in the dark. I credit a report of maps.


Who was the first bass player for the Rolling Stones?

Tophat665 10-04-2009 01:53 PM

Let me go for the stupid and obvious: Bill Wyman.

Tully Mars 10-04-2009 03:19 PM

Nope

Tully Mars 10-05-2009 11:07 AM

Couple more hours and I'll post an easier question.

Tully Mars 10-06-2009 06:04 AM

Dick Taylor was the first bass player for the Stones.

Whats the first song ever written by Jagger and Richards?

mixedmedia 10-06-2009 11:59 AM

Is it a well-known Stones song?

Tully Mars 10-06-2009 01:26 PM

It was released by them but was a hit for another singer. My guess is you've heard of it.

If this one proves too hard also, I'll accept the first #1 UK single to be written by Jagger/Richards and released by The Stones.

Sooner or later I'll find a Stones trivia someone knows.

mixedmedia 10-06-2009 01:29 PM

Was it 'As Tears Go By?'

The_Jazz 10-06-2009 01:32 PM

As Tears Go By, which made Maryanne Faithfull a star.

Yep, you're up.


Their first #1 UK single? "This could be the last time"

mixedmedia 10-07-2009 07:41 AM

yikes, I missed this last night somehow...I'm pathetic at keeping up with updates, heh.

anyway, wow, I'm really surprised that was the first song they wrote...it's so sweet, lol

ok...

Which 1980's new wave diva contributed vocals and voiceover dialogue to the Frank Zappa concept album Thing-Fish.

Tophat665 10-07-2009 07:49 AM

Was it Ronnie Specter? (Or the woman from 'Til Tuesday whos name escapes me?)

Kills me I don't have the immediate answer to a Zappa question.

mixedmedia 10-07-2009 07:56 AM

Nope, think early '80s...the only clue I can think of right now would give it away, I'm afraid.

Tophat665 10-07-2009 07:58 AM

Patti LaBelle?

mixedmedia 10-07-2009 08:00 AM

Nope. I should have specified that she was part of a group. She was the lead singer of the group and had some notoriety for her over-the-top sexual persona.

Tully Mars 10-07-2009 09:38 AM

Don't know her name but pretty sure it's the chick from Missing Persons.

Close enough. Dale Bozzio.
I was going to hint that her husband was a drummer for Zappa, but I thought that might give it away. And he, of course, was also in Missing Persons.

you're up, Tully, again :lol:

Tophat665 10-07-2009 11:29 AM

Ah! I always confuse Til Tuesday and Missing Persons. And Kajagoogoo. And Bow Wow Wow. And Howard Jones. I think it has something to do with the hair.

mixedmedia 10-07-2009 11:41 AM

haha, that could be it.
I associate Missing Persons with my first car, therefore, you know it's sentimental...

Just picture it: 1982, 17 years old and in beauty school, '78 toyota corolla w. a tapedeck...:lol:


Tully Mars 10-07-2009 01:19 PM

You're kidding about the 78 Corolla, right? If you say white H/back I'm gonna be weirded out.

When did Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young first preform?

Tully Mars 10-07-2009 01:31 PM

Whew!

And yes at Woodstock.

Ya never know what people are going know. UBUP... no UB40 questions please.

mixedmedia 10-07-2009 01:48 PM

that's fine, 'cause I know nothing about UB40.

What was the Talking Head's only Top 10 American hit? (too easy, probably...)

Tully Mars 10-07-2009 02:02 PM

Burnin' down the house?

mixedmedia 10-07-2009 02:03 PM

ya. your turn. :)

(i knew it was too easy)

Tully Mars 10-07-2009 02:16 PM

First one that popped in my head.

With a cost total cost of £12,500 what was the name of Dire Straits first album?
