You will need Microsoft Excel to take part in this game. Click on the link and save it to your desktop. Be patient, it's a large document. Simply fill in the name of the band and let us know your final score.

It could be a quiet night on the forum tonight. I'm on 54 so far and struggling, particularly with the Heavy Metal stuff. I'm sure one of them must be Metallica but which?

Not got Excel so no help to you.

I am feeling ancient - never seen half these young uns before!

I should be on "Grumpy Old Women" on TV on Fridays [and, BTW, "Grumpy OLD??? Women" - some them are not that old, surely. Does old = 35 these days?

If they are 'old' then where's my pension, please????]

Sorry ecm. If I knew how to put it up in a different format I would. Any techies out there able to assist?

I'm on 75 now btw, with a little help from froglette.

Really good quiz Bob...but really hard

Got 63 so far and my eyes are stinging...not sure I'll get many more without help

Maria · Post by **Maria** » 10 Mar 2005, 23:07

131 so far.......and I'm stopping for the night - even though I'd set myself a goal of getting half of them first

teddygirl · Post by **teddygirl** » 10 Mar 2005, 23:38

I'm stuck on 76, and that's with some help from the younger generations so I'm not confident of getting much more. Some I recognise but the names just won't come. :

Do you honestly think I thought there were only two showaddywaddyers? How long have you known me? (he said in a distant, unfamiliar non- in jokey way)

I had Homer's help. It was a most disturbing experience. He got bands such as Slipknot ,while I spotted Jethro Tull

Up until now I'd always thought I was much 'cooler'

Oh forgot my son - he got 'Busted'

Maria · Post by **Maria** » 11 Mar 2005, 10:45

I'm so frustrated. Why won't it accept Frankie goes to Hollywood or Dr Hook and the Medicine Show? Grrrrr!

Calm down, dear - it's just a quiz.

Wish I could help though. Sounds a toughie.

Maria · Post by **Maria** » 11 Mar 2005, 10:58

I'm sure I've got the completed spreadsheet in my email after the last time it done the rounds at work...

teddygirl · Post by **teddygirl** » 11 Mar 2005, 11:09

Marya, you think it's sad getting Jethro Tull ? I'm getting the dave clark fives and moody blues .......definitely not cool :

Not to mention the drifters etc.
