Djam Karet
 

means "liquid time" according to the band. Maybe if there was a picture of Yesspaz's leg it might be horrific;)

Anything trippy could be the Flower Kings!

A film remake? Damn, I thought it was Starsky and Hutch..

Re: Djam Karet
 

correct, but the phrase was coined by Edgar Rice Burroughs in what I think is a sci-fi novel that contains a not too rosy future. I haven't read it though...

you should get a point
 

for that deduction!

i tried the remaining ones but I'm just getting old!

9 is Eloy from HG Wells' The Time Machine.

crap! Bob just beat me to Eloy...

is man in space Rocket Scientists?

Rocket Scientists typically design the vehicles but
don't usually travel on them.

But Bob Lentil is correct.

FYI, HG Wells spelled it Eloi.

Where are we with this one VAX?
 

Can you post an update of what's left and who's got what?

Would make it a bit easier.

maybe you will get somewhere
 

I asked that before Keith, no reply yet...................

He's been editing the question back on page 1 of the thread with the answers and who got them... copy and paste...

1. trippy song lyric
2. sci-fi show episode: Spock's Beard: JamForte
3. middle-earth history: Marillion: KeithieW
4. words not drawn from a hat
5. blues men: Pink Floyd: Yesspaz
6. far from these things (or perhaps a cat): Procol Harum: ProgDirJim
7. J.R.R. Tolkien novel progenitor: Iluvatar: RickandRoll
8. seed drill inventor: Jethro Tull: JamForte
9. horrific vision of a mutated future race: Eloy: Bob Lentil
10. a space man: Klaatu: moses

So I guess we have numbers 1 and 4 left.

#10 a space man
isn't Man In Space, is it?

#10
 

No, actually, I think someone tried that already.

I think just got it - Klaatu - the alien from The Day the Earth Stood Still.

next wrong guess. #1 trippy song lyric
Spaced Out?

not. but moses is correct.

so for us working stiffs
 

what's the tally so far? Who has how many, and are there 2 left? Will Dick marry Jane?

nice one moses on no 10.

another long shot #1 - the magic elf?

nope... didn't this already get mentioned?

Wrong
 

#4... I know I've heard this story (pulling words from a hat and using the ones that were left), just can't remember which band it is. So I'll guess King Crimson just to remind folks that this is still here.

Re: Wrong
 

A good guess, but don't "bank" on it being right.

Ok, Genesis.

yeah but which one
 

Abacab, ripples, etc?

Or peter banks?

or ernie banks?

or tyra banks?

Re: yeah but which one
 

You don't think that clue would be THAT easy, do you?

then it would be
 

on the money...Eddie Money, the signing cop?

Floyd's Money?

Re: then it would be
 

Try some institutional names!

#4 - Banco del Mutuo Soccorso?

Right continent but not the band.

boy
 

that narrows it down:rolleyes:

trippy lyric
 

moody blues do Legend of a mind about timothy leary and taking trips arond the bay?

trippy lyric
 

then of course there is Porcupine Tree's 'Trip 39'
about meeting yourself on a stairway

Re: trippy lyric
 

Yes they did but how does that relate to a band
name? Is there a "Timothy Leary" band or "Trips
Around The Bay"?

so confused
 

VAX it would help if all of the clues were together. I keep scrolling back to the beginning, and it's hard to figure out what's been guessed or left.

the clue is "trippy song lyric" and Thor guessed a band - Moody Blues. He also guessed Porcupine Tree. Seems to me he guessed a band name.

OK so #4 is a European band, but presumably not Italian since VAX didn't say "right country." But he's being sneaky about it.

Anyhow, I'll guess Tangerine Dream, since VAX is a fan of them.

Re: so confused
 

Not so sure I left a clue for #1 yet with all the
guesses but, I've got to admit it's getting better,
a little better all the time.

Re: Re: so confused
 

"can't get much worse"

;)

Bingo!

http://tmachine.chat.ru/germ/T1.htm

moses was guessing #4 was Tangerine Dream not number one. Tangerine dream is the answer to number one. Number 4 still has not been answered. Correct?

Oops.... so he did... we'll the trippy song was
Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds. Rick missed
the clue to "Getting Better" with is the song on
Sgt. Pepper after L.S.D.

Re: Re: Re: so confused
 

Is the next line after "getting better all the time".

Rick didn't miss it (he says in the athlete 3rd person voice), just didn't know why it would be that tune. But, it was the tune after - but, there was no indication it was the tune after.

maybe "getting warmer all the time" may have done it.

sooooooooooooooooooo,

where the hell are we?

Should Moses and Jam get a question to break the tie?

need assistance...........

Re: Re: Re: Re: so confused
 

There's still one question left.... make it the tie breaker.

Yeah, number 4 still needs to be answered and I have spent several hours of research and have still come up with zilch. No more time today.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: so confused
 

not unless someone else gets it who has one right already:p

I'll check back on the guesses....
