[Rick and Roll]

Lenny White?

(a better drummer than my first guess)

[Rick and Roll]

Jethro tull?

[KeithieW]

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!

[dinosaur]

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:

Don't know anything about them, but... Eskalation?

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.

[dinosaur]

by Moses...Could be Dark Side of the Moon ... maybe.
Good guess, but not what I had in mind.
It's a band beginning with D.

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

Correct Moses!

Give us an "H"!

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

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]

"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.

[Rick and Roll]

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]

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]

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.

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]

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]

Jade Warrior is correct...

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: )

"N" is outstanding.
I have correctly guessed "O" and will add one later.

to be official, Rick's guess for "K" is wrong. Since that's an oblique clue for a band not on the moon, I'll go easier for Q - "God save 'em"

[KeithieW]

Q =Queen.

Ta Daaaaaaa! Keithie gets a shot at a right answer. :D

[Rick and Roll]

If Will Smith made a movie about a U.S. President, what song might that be?

Since I started this, I'm trying to keep us on track.
We missed a P. It won't do to miss our scheduled P.

You got the name of the Band correct but the answer I was looking for has the name of an album in it as well. Take it away.

Wrong, but on the right track with "4 of them" It is a band that is not on the Moon, but some might consider Moon worthy.

I mentioned the 4 because that's somewhat explicitly called out in the name of the band. "Time" is another clue...

[Wojtek]

K should be Karmakanic. 4 musicians and Wheel of Time album.

[Wojtek]

Oops, that was Wheel of Life, not Wheel of Time. :eek: :eek:
Sorry, missed shot. :D

[dinosaur]

N.) Niacin??? NIcontinic ACId rock... where's the last "n"?

Correct!
Niacin is a nutrient found in many foods. It is also known as nicotinic acid. I know, pretty obscure clue, but it was late at night and my dictionary happened to fall open to the page with niacin on it.

[Rick and Roll]

R and S still open?

I get U, and Jim gets V (I'll cede the Starcastle...I only got 1/2).

K and R are still open.

K is Jim's and I'n not sure how far we are clue wise.

Let's review R:

If Will Smith made a movie about a U.S. President, what song might that be?

The movie is "I, Robot", which Jim got. But the song is NOT the Alan Parsons Project. It is by a band that is represented on the Moon, but this song, which is off their first record, is NOT on the Moon. I have played two songs by the band on my show, both live versions of songs on this fantastic first record. Did I mention it's NOT on the Moon?:eek: I'll give another hint in a day or two if needed.

I was going to throw a softball to moses and make "Umphrey's McGee" the U, but that's too easy:p

What the heck, I'll make it not so hard:

U - Kate Bush trapped at the North Pole?

(I can see your tawdry visions now......)

[moses]

R = Robots for Ronnie by Crack the Sky

Whew!

U = Utopia... no, that can't be right. Unwed Sailor? No...

Here's an odd clue for 'X' that is only tangentially related to prog. Otherwise it gets too easy to narrow down the possible answers, and that's not nearly as fun is it?;)

X.) Yes' Owner of a Lonely Heart is featured in a popular video game that shares most of its name with a film written, directed, and starred in by an Oscar winning director. That film was produced by a successful B-movie director/producer who also directed this film that begins with the letter 'X.'

I wish I would have thought of that. In an effort not to use another Rush tune, I could have come up with a long-winded clue that led to a movie of the same name.:) Unfortunately, I did not. Guess again.

(By the way, would you mind posting a personal review of that great movie, Xanadu?)

Weather Report was correct. Sorry if I missed that.

As for X, "Owner Of a Lonely Heart" is in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. Ron Howard wrote, directed, and starred in a film called Grand Theft Auto back in 1977. Roger Corman produced that and a film called "X" aka "X: The Man with the X-Ray Eyes."

Whew.

The song title begins with a Y.
If the name of the band is included , perhaps the clue should be 'Future vision trip - alone...'

Y = Journey - "You're On Your Own" from Look Into the Future.

I think so. Kino is a 4-person band but I don't think there's a time reference there. We'll wait for the official ruling from Jim.

[progdirjim]

K is still unsolved.

it is a group that could be considered prog
they are not on Aural Moon
they have a two word name
the first word is a time reference (or could be construed as such)
the second word is a reference to the fact that there are 4 members

You could give me answer and I still wouldn't get it probably :rolleyes:

unless it's Klock Kwartet :eek:

[moses]

K = Kronos Quartet

I shoulda thought of that.
