You got it. Next question is your's ...

Daddy???????

Yes son, I want to speak to you about that KISS crap you're listening to! heh heh.... just kidding

Oof, That was a total guess/"wouldn't it be funny if it were right" kind of thing.

OK, let's try this: The band called "Soft White Underbelly" went on to become what better know band?

(Edit: Sorry Kids, I have to be interested in the band to know the trivia, so it's either old or loud or both. I'm 34, but I'm more in the generation before mine than my own.)

Blue Oyster Cult

I've got a fever and the only cure is MORE COWBELL!!!

Absolutely! Rideough, your question.

What year did Zeppelin start Swan Song and what was its original name?


Sorry all I know is Zeppelin

Loved the Cult question, Tophat!

Thanks! I figured with my argument in the "Greatest Band Ever" thread, it was about time.

Unfortunately, other than their albums, I know diddlysquat about the Zep, so somebody else is going to have to answer the Swan Song question.

I hate it when I know something, but not off the top of my head.

I've read Jimmy Page's book "Hammer of the Gods" and I think Swan Song was started about 1976, but I don't recall what it's original name was.

I'm in the same spot on this one. It was definitly started in or prior to 1976 though, I was just listening to Presence and I noticed it on there and Presence is from 76'.

Well then I'm out.

nope, it was 74 but i won't tell the original name until tomorrow!

I have quite a few of their albums on vinyl, but have never replaced them on CD. Some of their old tune's were way out there. I remember one called "She's as beautiful as a foot"
I saw them in concert with Heart, Cheap Trick, UFO, and Firefall in the Gator Bowl. They had a huge Godzilla behind the drummer that shot lazers out of it's eyes during Godzilla.
I have no idea on the Zep question either!

rideough, we need a new question....

Yes, we do. I know next to nothing about Zep... sorry

Well.... I guess someone has to keep this thing moving along....
What band was Dave Mustaine a member of before Megadeth?

Metallica!!!

Swan Song was gonna be called Slut Records>

Your question Tophat!

still waiting for a question Tophat....

I just PM'd Tophat.

Thanks tritium!

Not a problem.

I move we let the first taker ask a question to move this along...
Somebody please ask a trivia question.

what late great blues guitarist made his major label debut on David Bowie's Lets Dance album?

muddy waters....

Stevie Ray Vaughan

The only guitarist I know that was on "Let's Dance" was Nile Rogers and he's not dead.

I'm stumped

First off, sorry about missing the question. My cable's been iffy for a couple of days, and I just got Tritium's PM today.

Not that it matters, but I am almost 100% certain that rideough is right on SRV. His guitar work on Cat People makes that song.

rideough is correct

SRV was on a David Bowie album?!?!?!?!?

Man, now I have to go find that album and listen to it again.

OK...

Who played drums on the Beatles song"Back in the U.S.S.R. ?

It wasn't Ringo......

I think it was Paul. He took over when Ringo "quit" during those sessions.

yep

your question!

People make fun of Meg White's drumming but they all forget how much Ringo sucked.

Watch it with the Ringo sucks stuff in here. A lot of Beatle fans around this board.

This is a trivia thread not an opinion thread.


OK, heres another real name question.

He was born Vincent Damon Furnier, who do we know him as now?

edit: I hit quote instead of edit.

I will add a hint in here instead.

He was born in 1948

Man... what happened there?
