KeithieW 01-21-2005 02:24 AM

Hmmmmm!!!
 
Rick's answer to "F" seems correct but I was under the impression that the answer began with the designated letter............am I being dumb???

Probably!!!!! I usually am. :D

No!

I see now!

I was confused about why we needed to add to the list. It makes sense now. And I need to add one...

so i was going to add a lyric completion, but I'll save that for a future quiz ;)

let's see...I need a "G".....

G) Riding in a large travelling party, you may find this lady not once, but twice!

Right, KW, the original intention was that the letters should correspond with the correct answer in some way -- but I failed to point that out
:rolleyes:

Quote:

I had a different band in mind, and I think Eskalation is from Germany?, not the Netherlands.
And now, after some checking, I found that the band I had in mind is not on the AM playlist. That makes this one a little more difficult than I thought
:mad:
Think late sixties, early seventies and classical covers.

Good guess, but not what I had in mind.
It's a band beginning with D.

dinosaur 01-21-2005 09:36 AM

Rick got "F" right... and I added his "G"...

(Hmmm... is there a band hidden in that cryptic statement??) :D

Correct Moses!

Give us an "H"!

progdirjim 01-21-2005 11:36 AM

is (E) Ekseption? I plan on getting some of their stuff one of these days...

and a wild guess for (C) - Cozy Powell, who was one of the drummers for Rainbow...

already working on that one. I missed them on the Gagliarchives, but they sound promising.

[i] Key plot element in Lord Of The Rings...

Rick and Roll 01-21-2005 11:45 AM

looks like
 
Jim may have three right....at least the E and the H....

Moses......you sneak!:p


oops, missed Jim's post:

I = Iluvatar?

(never seen or read LOTR but I know this one)

not what i had in mind. Iluvatar is related to LOTR, but not an essential plot element. Good guess though!

KeithieW 01-21-2005 02:06 PM

Dinosaur, what have you doooooone?
 
A pun on a tull lyric there folks....................Rick?

I think we need to keep an update on what's gone and what hasn't here peeps.

Could get VERY messy otherwise. :D

Rick and Roll 01-21-2005 02:32 PM

Taking the horns by the bull
 
"C" and "E" may be jim's (unconfirmed). If confirmed, he owes us two more.

"I" was a jim question and is still outstanding.

"J" is next.

All others answered.

Not following on the Tull reference.:eek:

Bob Lentil 01-21-2005 02:52 PM

Letter I is Isildur's Bane.

I had Billy Cobham in mind for his "Spectrum" lp, but your answer fits even better!

A.) "Stadium" performers [ARENA]
B.) Can'tRock get this showRock out of my HeadRock ('spaz, you're not eligible for this one) [BRAINROCK]
C.) Drummer of "All-colors" [Billy Cobham, or Cozy Powell]
D.) Sliced-up Moon song

F.) If you plow through their music, you might find an inventor [Jethro Tull]

Rick and Roll 01-21-2005 10:16 PM

Cobham....
 
I was almost certain it was him, but it didn't know why so I didn't guess. It's like using a word in Scrabble that you can't define ( a dig at my brother in law :mad: )

So "D" is still out and "I" is done?

progdirjim 01-21-2005 11:54 PM

I is indeed done - Isildur's Bane is the answer. I owe a J and a K, and D is still open.

J (I hope "your favorite Program Director" would be too easy:D )
Fighting over the green

K

I haven't had the time to add these four

Both clues reference bands; one is on the moon and one is not...

KeithieW 01-22-2005 02:58 AM

Forgive my Dumbness but.........
 
I don't see how "F" can be Jethro Tull!!!!!!!!!!

Please Explain.....................just to stop me thinking about it and getting this headache. :D

not dumbness...forgetfulness maybe.

Fremder (and also me for that matter) did not realize the first letter was the main clue. Therefore he was just adding in a clue under F). It could have been any letter. I just didn't think it was worth it to go back. But since Jim has control, he can decide whether to do an F).

Now to summarize, I can't remember how to add text within a quote like you "experts":cool:

So please refer to Jim's post to see where we are.

Bob Lentil 01-22-2005 10:47 AM

Here's an 'L.'

A.) "Stadium" performers [ARENA]
B.) Can'tRock get this showRock out of my HeadRock ('spaz, you're not eligible for this one) [BRAINROCK]
C.) Drummer of "All-colors" [Billy Cobham]

I.) Key plot element in Lord Of The Rings... [Isildur's Bane]

K.) I haven't had the time to add these four
L.) Where people assembled on May 24th

dinosaur 01-22-2005 12:32 PM

J. Fighting over the green... Jade Warrior?

Rick and Roll 01-22-2005 01:03 PM

L is

Correct. Whenever I come up with question, you usually just need to flip a coin and see if it lands on Rush or King's X.

Rick and Roll 01-22-2005 03:42 PM

M
 
Dinosaur I'll take this one....looks like you may have N if your J is correct (and it appears to be)...

The answer for this one is five words, all starting with "M". Kind of easy, but what the hell....

If this artist who wrote songs about the planets covered a Genesis tune that mentions one of its satellites, what would we call it?

progdirjim 01-22-2005 06:21 PM

Jade Warrior is correct...

Bob Lentil 01-22-2005 06:21 PM

Letter 'M' - Manfred Mann - Mad Man Moon

what's the Manfred Mann reference? I had the Mad Man

and I'll guess King's X for Bob's next question:D

That's funny!

I played this board game called Scattegories once...and I thought I had three points for Mad Man Moon, but no one knew it so they threw it out. Emphasized the dichotomy between us proggies and the common folk.

Anyhow, on Solar Fire there's a few tunes about Saturn, Mercury, and Earth. So D and K are still out?

And next is N - Dinosaur and O - Bob?

(O Bob you beast you :eek: )

I actually based my answer on the following Manfred Mann tunes:
Joybringer (From Jupiter)
Neptune (Icebringer)

Uh oh. . . I may have to dig deep and branch out into Kansas or something.
