Booray 05-13-2004 06:30 PM

I know I've heard this one before, but am drawing blanks other than my initial guess.

perripken 05-13-2004 07:27 PM

I've got it GOT, however, I'm not going to be around the computer until tomorrow to answer. Damn it! If the answer is still on the board when I get to work tomorrow, I'll be in!
By the way, great question- love this talent!

noahfor 05-13-2004 09:13 PM

NWA??

God of Thunder 05-14-2004 04:36 AM

Not rap either.

Hint time:

This video was not banned for sex or violence or even lyrics. The objectional part of the video was the amount of advertising it did. The video was pretty much a parody for the over-commercialization of the times. Even though the video was a parody, the song was not. So, it was not Weird Al.

After it won the award, MTV finally caved and started playing it.

Sion 05-14-2004 07:02 AM

This Note's for You, Neil Young?

God of Thunder 05-14-2004 09:51 AM

You got it Sion.

perripken 05-14-2004 10:35 AM

I beg to differ, I think it was "Need you tonight" INXS.

Booray 05-14-2004 11:41 AM

I Googled the stuff earlier and "Need You Tonight" was the video of the year of '88 and "This Note's For You" was the one for '89 (and was the one that MTV didn't want to play).

"This Note's For You" lyrics for the curious
Don't want no cash
Don't need no money
Ain't got no stash
This note's for you.

Ain't singin' for Pepsi
Ain't singin' for Coke
I don't sing for nobody
Makes me look like a joke
This note's for you.

Ain't singin' for Miller
Don't sing for Bud
I won't sing for politicians
Ain't singin' for Spuds
This note's for you.

Don't need no cash
Don't want no money
Ain't got no stash
This note's for you.

I've got the real thing
I got the real thing, baby
I got the real thing
Yeah, alright.

Looks like I had the year wrong, but Neil Young is who I was looking for. The album came out in 88, so that is what probably threw me off.

perripken 05-14-2004 12:49 PM

I've cried a river, I've built a bridge, and now I'm over it!
Your question Sion.

Sion 05-14-2004 08:44 PM

cool, I thought I had a pretty good guess there.

next Q: name the band that appeared in part 3 of a certain sci-fi movie trilogy, as the musicians at a hoe-down/square dance in the old west (1880's).


bonus points if you can name the song they wrote especially for that movie.

Booray 05-15-2004 04:18 AM

I'm pretty sure I remember ZZTop doing a song for Back to the Future 3 but didn't remember them being in the movie, but I'll guess that anyways.

Can't remember the song they did for the movie.

Booray 05-15-2004 04:22 AM

Just checked IMDB.com and saw I was right. I saw what the song was called too, but figured I'd let someone else guess it.

Couldn't really think of anything good, but here's a new question (might be too easy):

What band made a cameo in the final Dirty Harry movie sequel?

Sion 05-15-2004 02:49 PM

I wanna say Guns'n'Roses, but am not certain. didnt they have a song on the soundtrack?

Booray 05-15-2004 04:07 PM

Guns N Roses it is (The Dead Pool also co-starred a young Jim Carrey as a rockstar). They used Welcome to the Jungle on the soundtrack. Your go Sion

Sion 05-15-2004 08:55 PM

cool, Sion guesses correctly again.


next: name the drummer who recorded with Ozzy Osbourne, Black Sabbath and Uriah Heep.

KWSN 05-15-2004 10:00 PM

Damn, there's a lot of people it could be. Not Vinny Appice, Bill Ward, or Cozy Powell, I presume.

Sion 05-15-2004 10:15 PM

so far as I know, there was only one who recorded with all three.

God of Thunder 05-16-2004 07:08 AM

My guess would have been Vinny Appice too.

Sion 05-16-2004 09:05 AM

keep guessing

Wasn't that Lee Kerslake?

KWSN 05-16-2004 04:58 PM

OK, I didn't use Google, but I did use AMG...... i hope that doesn't count as cheating. This would have been a stumper had I not.

The answer is Lee Kerslake

Don't know if you were just being sarcastic, but, in my opinion, using AMG is really the same thing as using Google. It's still looking the answer up. When I don't know an answer but just want to go find out what the answer is so I don't have to wait for someone to guess it correctly, I go to AMG. I found Kerslake as the answer earlier today too at AMG but didn't post it because just using AMG and looking at the people who have played drums for Uriah Heep and seeing who played with Ozzy and Sabbath as well is basically cheating, which makes the game boring because anyone can just go look something up on the internet.

Oh, well in that case, i guess Sion deserves another go.

EDIT: WAIT, iamtheone added the answer a minute before my post.

Well, if he didnt look it up, it's his go.

Sion 05-16-2004 07:01 PM

iamtheone is indeed correct and deserves the next question.

God of Thunder 05-16-2004 07:15 PM

Looking up the answer anywhere is cheating.

I know we can all do it very easily and no one would know about it, but lets play like gentlemen (and ladies) and show some honor. It takes the fun out of this if we are going to resort to cheating.

KWSN 05-16-2004 07:32 PM

Sorry guys.

Next time if I resort to AMG and find the answer, I'll indicate that I've found it but not say it.

Again, major apologies.

I would like to interject the words "on the internet" into that statement. As some of you may remember, a while back there was a question that I knew I could answer if I pulled the album out of my closet and looked at the credits. I asked if that would be considered cheating and was told no.

iamtheone 05-17-2004 03:11 AM

ok. I will go. (another easy one)

What band was originally called Majesty?

(80's, 90's)

That is what I meant. I see now that it should have been included in my statement. I too, have been known to pull out old albums and such to verify answers.

perripken 05-17-2004 12:22 PM

Man..... I wish I had been here for the Lee Kerslake question, I'm a huge Uriah Heep fan! BTW....as the threads originator, and as the one who empowered the almighty God of Thunder.... I also agree that looking up any info on albums or CD's is not cheating.
Googling or any other form of internet search (just because it's too damn easy) is cheating.
As for Majesty, no clue

perripken 05-18-2004 06:20 AM

we need a new question sparafucile

Booray 05-19-2004 04:49 AM

I'll go ahead and ask another one.

What guitarist did Steve Miller get his first guitar as a gift from and was taught his first chords at the age of 5 by?

Sion 05-19-2004 07:33 AM

wild guess: Chet Atkins

perripken 05-19-2004 08:21 AM

cool question Booray, I had to look so I'm disqualified.

iamtheone 05-19-2004 08:59 AM

easy one: Les Paul....

iamtheone 05-19-2004 09:00 AM

Gibson has introduced how many different Les Paul models since they were first introduced in 1952?

God of Thunder 05-19-2004 10:14 AM

The only ones I know of is the standard model and the Gold Top custom. But I also know that Ace Frehley also desgned one.

So, basically I'm just gonna take a wild-assed guess and say....12.

iamtheone 05-19-2004 11:18 AM

Quote:

That would be incorrect Sir.

God of Thunder 05-19-2004 11:24 AM

Feh.

Well, I tried.

Booray 05-19-2004 12:23 PM

Can we get a higher or lower hint? I'll guess 15

perripken 05-19-2004 01:25 PM

Another guess, 6

GuttersnipeXL 05-19-2004 01:56 PM

Isn't that question more of a musical instrument trivia question? At any rate I'll guess 22

iamtheone 05-19-2004 04:40 PM

Quote:

If the majority feels that this does not relate I can pass my turn...


I will anyway, the answer was 40.

carry'on fellas

God of Thunder 05-19-2004 04:51 PM

I see nothing wrong with the question. It is music-related.

Looks like it was going to be a stumper anyway.

Let me try one since it has been declared open.

The Buggles are famous for having the first video played on MTV.

What artist had the second video?

Booray 05-19-2004 05:15 PM

shit, I think I've heard this one before...don't know, but gotta guess something

The Cars

iamtheone 05-19-2004 05:22 PM

Guess.. (and probably a very bad one) Cindy Lauper? - (this damn video is all i remember seeing back in the day)

KWSN 05-19-2004 05:27 PM

Billy Squire?

perripken 05-19-2004 09:09 PM

I agree with my cohort GOT, the question was about arguably the greatest guitar in history.... that's music my friends!
I'm gonna guess Billy Idol.

Sion 05-19-2004 10:37 PM

I've heard this one before too, but unfortunately cant remember the answer, so Im guessing Michael Jackson.

God of Thunder 05-20-2004 04:12 AM

Lets see.. I'll answer these in order

Nope
Nope
Nope
Nope and
No Soup for you

It was a female artist.

iamtheone 05-20-2004 05:35 AM

Madonna? Has to be it damn it....



:lol:


trying to think..... who the hell else did they play to death.....

iamtheone 05-20-2004 05:37 AM

ok, I cheated. I wouldn't of guessed this person/band however.

God of Thunder 05-20-2004 06:19 AM

Wasn't someone that was really played to death. I remember the video, but don't recall it being really over-played.

But, as iamtheone pointed out, it wasn't Madonna.

Remember, this was 1981. (collective sound of all of the youngblood saying "How the hell should I know? I wasn't even born yet!!")

iamtheone 05-20-2004 06:28 AM

I was 10....

perripken 05-20-2004 06:40 AM

I have two female guesses, I'll start with Cindi Lauper

God of Thunder 05-20-2004 07:20 AM

Go with the other then, because iamtheone already guessed Cyndi and was shot down.

I'll give a pretty good hint later, right now it's fun to watch everyone guess.


Side note: Only the artist is needed to provide a correct answer, but I really would like to know the name of the song too. Hint: It's not the one she's really famous for during that era. That song was the next one released.

Sion 05-20-2004 08:06 AM

Pat Benatar?

and if thats right, Im guessing "Hell is for children" as the song

God of Thunder 05-20-2004 08:41 AM

Quote:

You're right, but the song was "You Better Run"

"Hit Me With Your Best Shot" was her next single/video released.

Side note: I saw Pat in concert last summer and DAMN is she still cute :love: Time has been very kind to her.

Your go Sion.

perripken 05-20-2004 09:17 AM

Aw man... that was my next guess. Another guess could've been Blondie.

Sion 05-20-2004 08:50 PM

heh, cool. Sion's guesses have been very good of late, eh?

anyway, here's an easy one:

everyone knows that Steven Van Zandt plays Silvio Dante on The Sopranos, and most know that he is a member of Springsteen's E Street Band. what is the name of his solo project?

God of Thunder 05-21-2004 05:34 AM

Little Steven and the Disciples of Soul

To carry on the guitar-related trivia, (yes it is a valid line of questioning) how did B.B King's guitar get it's name?

iamtheone 05-21-2004 06:50 AM

Lucille got her name from a fight at a club I think? Guys were fighting over a woman called Lucille.

God of Thunder 05-21-2004 07:10 AM

Yup.

The way B.B. tels it is that two guys were fighting over her, somehow a fire got started and everyone evacuated. He realized once he got outside he had left his guitar, so he ran back in to get it.

He named the guitar after the woman they were fighting over to remind himself not to ever do anything that stupid again.

iamtheone 05-21-2004 11:30 AM

In your honor:

Where did KISS break a BEATLES attendance record?

KWSN 05-21-2004 07:46 PM

Hm, not sure. Has to be a big venue... maybe something in England. Is it the alltime attendance record or the record for the venue?

I'd like to say Leeds but I'm not sure.

Sion 05-21-2004 08:42 PM

im gonna guess Madison Square Garden

perripken 05-22-2004 07:00 AM

Where oh where is the God of Thunder? This one should be right up his alley!

God of Thunder 05-22-2004 08:00 AM

Ahhh, took a night off.

Actually I think you're thinking of Shea Stadium and it was Grand Funk Railroad that did it.

If not, then you stumped me.

Booray 05-22-2004 10:56 AM

Don't know if GoT is right, but will just throw out another guess. Candlestick Park

iamtheone 05-22-2004 01:11 PM

Nope. =all the above

(hint-Not in the US)

Or, if you would rather have me reveal that is fine. Your call fella's.

Sion 05-22-2004 02:54 PM

The Budokan in Japan?

if not, how about at least giving us what continent its on?

Sion 05-22-2004 10:21 PM

why is it that I always guess correctly when I dont have a good question ready?


ok, how about this:


what Academy award-winning funk/soul icon appeared in John Carpenter's "Escape from New York"?

Booray 05-23-2004 04:49 AM

I'm trying to remember. I'm thinking someone performed at some point in the movie for the "bad element" crowd in New York, but not sure. I'll guess James Brown.
**going to check my guess on IMDB.com so I guess I won't have any follow up guesses**

Booray 05-23-2004 04:51 AM

crap....just saw the answer. completely forgot he was in this.

KWSN 05-23-2004 05:53 AM

George Clinton maybe?

Sion 05-23-2004 06:46 AM

keep guessing

Sion 05-23-2004 03:19 PM

hint: not GRAMMY winner, but ACADEMY AWARD winner. Id tell you the movie, but that would be a dead giveaway. I can tell you it was a 70's movie about a cop.

KWSN 05-23-2004 05:19 PM

A 70's movie, conspicuous, about a cop? There could be only one...

JOHN SHAFT!!!

Isaac Hayes MUST be the answer.

well done grasshopper. you may go now.

Booray 05-24-2004 03:59 PM

doh! I think if I had noticed the "Academy Award" winning part of the initial clue, I would've gotten that one.

KWSN 05-24-2004 06:08 PM

OK, here goes

On "Chapelle's Show," you may have seen the parody Dave did or R. Kelly with the "Pee on You" video. This is because, apparently, R. Kelly pisses on a girl in his infamous sex tape. At the end of the parody video, they have a fake information graphic come up, like the ones in the bottom left corner of videos on MTV. The general format is like this for those who don't get it by my description

Song Title
Artist
Album
Record Label
Director

As the director, Dave lists, as a joke, another famous artist with an infamous video involving pissing. This is discussed in the commentary for said episode on the DVD. Name the artist listed as the director.

GuttersnipeXL 05-24-2004 06:19 PM

Chuck Berry?

KWSN 05-24-2004 06:25 PM

Well that one lasted only 11 minutes. Damn.

By the way, in the commentary on the DVD, the show's main writer (aside to Chapelle) describes the Chuck Berry's House Party video as the most hilarious thing he's ever seen.

Your go then, Guttersnipe.

GuttersnipeXL 05-24-2004 06:45 PM

Wow...I pulled that out of my ass... I heard that ol' Johnny B. Goode himself was into golden showers along time ago....weird.

Let's see here, a nice Zappa question for ya's...Out of his four children, which one appeared on his "Ship Arriving Too Late, To Save a Drowning Witch" album, singing about a certain group of Californians? Gimme the name of his kid and name of the song.

pan6467 05-24-2004 07:35 PM

Moon Unit with the great hit "Valley Girl"........ Like omigod

yes indeed, a GREAT song. not so much for the val-speak but for the thunderous bass-line that rumbles all through it.

pan6467 05-24-2004 09:11 PM

Hmmmmm .......... must dig deep into the bowels of Hell for this one.......

Ray Davies before starting the KINKS worked in London for the Dave Hunt Band. After awhile he and the lead singer left to form a band called "THE BLUES MESSENGERS" it featured an extremely famous drummer who would eventually be a part of/founding member of a HUGE band....

Who is that drummer?

This should be a stumper.

iamtheone 05-25-2004 06:01 AM

Neil Pert =bad guess.

pan6467 05-25-2004 07:01 AM

DAMN YOU GOD.........lol

Yes it was the one and only Mick Fleetwood.

Thought I had people on this. Thought for sure someone would say Phil Collins


Jadedfox 05-25-2004 07:09 AM

lol, guess you didn't dig deep enough in the ol' bowels :D

--jaded

God of Thunder 05-25-2004 09:40 AM

Nah, just did some analysing.

Tried to deduce what artists might have been kicking around the same time Davies was forming a band. I also knew that Mick was a founding member and therefore took a pretty good guess. Honestly Phil Collins didn't even enter my mind.

It was either Mick or Ginger Baker, I chose Mick.

Then again...sometime I over-think things.


Let's switch gears to country music.

Where did Sawyer Brown get their first big break?
