Just an idea!!!

[Rick and Roll]

Got the Bobby part right, now go for the sheep...

No no! I mean the clue! Phew, that was close.

[Rick and Roll]

Still four left:

2 and 4 are on Aural Moon, 9 & 10 not, but still very well-known.

Let me know when hints are needed.

2) Sweet dreams are made of this namesake.
4) Illegal smoke on the water?
9) King of the toilets!!!
10) British cop in sheep's clothing?

So far, Jim - 5, Keith - 1

[progdirjim(Admin)]

I'm thinking #2 is Rick Wright

and even if I'm wrong, I'm definitely still playing - just quite busy with work today...

wild guess for #9 - Pigpen from the Greateful Dead

Dave Stewart - i) Egg, Hatfields and ii) Eurythmics

I was wondering when Dave Stewart would be guessed!

Still steamed about Jordan Rudess - what a guess!

Pigpen not right - but, one of the remaining also has a one word solution!

Left are 4,9,10.

[moses]

4) Illegal smoke on the water?

That would be Seaweed (Ozric Tentacles)

[Rick and Roll]

Well done, that was probably the hardest of the bunch!!!!! (except for maybe Rudess).

Jim 5, Moses 1, Keith 2.

Left are the two non-AM keys, 9 & 10.

Hint: Each was guessed half-right, previously.

it wasn't a guess - I KNEW

[progdirjim(Admin)]

#9 - John Myung (Played with what's his name from King's X)
- John Gosling (Kinks close to King)

at some point you gotta give me this one for the sheer magnitude of the number of my wrong guesses!

John Tout - "Tout" close to Tut
John Tesh - he's the king of cheese
John Novello, John Medeski, John Evan, John "Rabbit" Bundrick, John Linnell, Dr. John, John Young..........

[Rick and Roll]

side note: I meant to say what a deduction, not guess, although Seaweed was inspired, too!

Let's see, this toilet thing has you flushed! Let's make it easier - the first name is Jon, not John (so sue me for poetic license).

And #10 plays with a band named after a city.................

[progdirjim(Admin)]

Jon Lord! duh!

[progdirjim(Admin)]

and Bobby Lamm of Chicago....

good ones...

[progdirjim(Admin)]

It may take me a day or two to come up with a question, so if Keithie or Moses has one ready, go ahead!

[Rick and Roll]

Final tally - Jim 7, Keith 2, Moses 1.

Nicely solved!

As the Guardian of Forever said on Star Trek, "I await your question".

[progdirjim(Admin)]

Okay, we've done bass, drums, guitars, keyboards. What's left? Fortunately, at least one more question in the world of prog! The following are cryptic clues to musicians somewhere on Aural Moon who play an instrument OTHER than the above as their main instrument. (I'm not including vocalists who don't play an instrument.)

He's on the bridge of the Enterprise
Drink named after diner owner
Nose drain an enigma
The ultimate beggar
Large, unintimidating stringman
A decent fellow, despite who he hangs out with
Nice TV, lady!
Sasquatch (guitar is actually this guy's main instrument, but he plays another instrument too)
Honest felines

only 9 this time, so there can't be a two way tie! plus, a few of these might be kind of obscure...

[Rick and Roll]

The Jim solar day....

what's left? all kinds of things - but a great question.

Let's see - I'll guess Ray Shulman (violin) for #5. Phil on Trumpet and Derek on sax are others, but not strings.

For # 1, it's got to be one of the big three. Sulu and Chekov don't work...

What makes yours difficult is that I don't know if it's a band, artist, or other clue - but since they are all on the Moon, it makes it very challenging. Usually I think of a name and match it to the clue.

For instance, Morris Pert I was fitting in to #9, but it doesn't work.

[Rick and Roll]

Jerry Goodman! Great clue!

Morris Pert is wrong, but a good guess! I kind of wish I had included percussionists now...

[Rick and Roll]

you can do that as another one!

Well I've spent enough time here, going to take my 2 pt lead into the evening....

[progdirjim(Admin)]

I sort of did include one percussionist...
