I was given this by a friends friend [img]tongue.gif[/img] . Basically, you use the clues to work out the name of a band/art/singer. I warn you that most of these are British bands. If you think you know some, post them here and if youre correct I'll edit the post saying that you answered it first. When they've all been answered (or as many as possible), whoever answered the most wins! Ah, but I do not know all the answers [img]tongue.gif[/img] so for some we'll have to decide amogst ourselves whether it's right or not. It's a long list - 225 questions! Have fun :D !

After a furhter scan through:
40) Guns and Roses 75) Queen? 80) President? 214) Steps |
40, 75, and 80 are correct. I do not know the answer to 214 but 'steps' sounds about right. Well done again [img]smile.gif[/img]

5) White Snake? It sounds like a band.
12) Red Hot Chili Peppers? 217) Eagles 13) The Beatles I don't have the patience to do any more than skim it, either... |

RoSs, you're 'Pink' guess is corect. I am unsure what the answer is the other one so I'll leave it to the others to decide. If no-one decides you'll get the point anyway [img]tongue.gif[/img]

<font color=deepskyblue>I am posting this for <font color=yellow>Melusine</font>. For some reason, her PC won't let her access this thread right now. Here are her answers so far...
<font color=yellow>166. Aqua. 175. T-Rex 180. Eternal 216. The Stone Roses 211. Alien Ant Farm 225. The Darkness 220. Color Me Badd 154. Radiohead 148. Yes 158. Crowded House I think some of them actually have multiple right answers... I tried posting this an hour ago and several times after but the forum keeps kicking me out [img]graemlins/madhell.gif[/img] </font></font> |
Ack!! That's sooooo unfair!!! I kept trying to reply and I kept being kicked out [img]graemlins/crying.gif[/img]
Thanks Cerek for posting [img]smile.gif[/img] even though many of the ones I got have been answered already because I couldn't post. |
To compensate for the forum kicking Cerek, Melusine has 'stolen' answers from Bungleau (ie. the ones that they both got right, Melusine got even though Bungleau posted first). I'm afraid I cannot backtrack too far back unless you are exaggerating the time, however. It's a fierce battle but Bungleau has just taken the lead [img]smile.gif[/img] . I have to go to bed now so it won't be updated for a while. Nighty night!
