It's Friday - calling all aged ravers and air guitarists

[RogerS]

..or those of a certain vintage.

How many can you recognise ?

Have a great weekend.

Hi Roger,

You have way too much time on your hands.

But, apparently, I do too .

Got the first three immediately and thought it was going to be too easy. Then I missed the next four, got two more, missed another one, then finished strongly by getting 11 through 15.

Nothing better than electric guitar for putting a smile on your face .

Pathetic. I only recognise 7 of them

And I love guitar based rock music too (and am of the ahem, right era)

Thanks for posting the quiz Roger :lol:

 

[StevieB]

Hmm, beats me Tony, I get 4 for sure and possibly 2 more. Where are the answers?!

Steve.

 

[Alf]

Evidentally I'm too young 'cos I could only get 2 (the lyrics of both have featured on this very forum in the not so distant past). #9 however, I know I know, but I can't remember. It's going to bug me like crazy unless someone takes pity on me...? [-o<

Cheers, Alf

Well, I've looked at the site and I can't recognize any of them, me sound card is banjaxed. So, not wishing to spoil things let's say #9 relates to a bit of a party in Switzerland. What about the others, any verbal clues please?

Noel

 

[RogerS]

If you're sound card is banjaxed then how can you hear them at all :wink:

I'll put some clues on a separate post :twisted:

 

[Noel]

Roger, I LOOKED at the site, no point trying to listen as I'm totally soundless ('cause of the soundcard), so just have to guess from associated posts, like Alf's #9 problem. No need to start another thread, am I right no #9, we are talking Montreux? Aren't we?

Clues:

Number 1 is a mixture of red and white and what passes by us every day
Number 2 is about getting rather amorous with undesirable associates
Number 8 has links with metal balloon and top of the pops
Number 9 think of a colour similar to a very dark blue and a lake in geneva
Number 13 think of a large bird stopping over for the night
Number 15 has links with nomadic royalty


Hope these help :lol:

 

[Bean]

Tony Nice clues didn't need many, I'm sad to say that a lot of these are in my record collection


Bean

I hope you've all been e-mailing your answers to Martin - seems like a nice chap and I'm sure he'd appreciate knowing how many of us have enjoyed this entertainment.

Thanks for the link Roger, took me right back to my head banging youth - happy days

Alf, without actually naming names, for the artist think red and blue (mixed); for track think H2O and a by-product of combustion.

Cheers,
Karl

 

[Alf]

Yes, thanks folks, I've got it now. #-o The trouble is I have absolutely no recollection of how the track goes; just that guitar bit. Did someone else use it for something? :-k Oh, and if you think I'm emailing my pathetic two-and-a-half answers you must be mad. :lol:

Cheers, Alf
