MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
I've been doing a thing in our local every Tuesday for the last 3 years which involves guessing the artist when a song is played, stop me if I'm getting too technical, I try to mix up the age of the song and genre but have a common theme, such as Brothers and Sisters, cover versions, band names connected to weather, transport, countries, places etc. Trouble is I'm running out of ideas, the theme should ideally only serve to point towards the artist name. Can anyone direct me to a site where such things are available or can the combined might of the STW massive think of any suitable themes. I normally make the discs from Itunes and the pub is fully covered by PRS so no copyright issues. Also its all for chariddy so were morally covered.
Hair colour?
Blondie
4 non blondes
Blonde redhead
concrete blonde
ummm must google more....
Shapes- bizzarre love triangle ect
Heroes & Villains- sympathy for the devil, Oh superman
technology- computers want me dead, on my radio etc
how about connections , bob dylan - woody guthrie etc
or how bands got their names ,that type o thing
On a slightly different idea, I have done one that was a slight twist. Each question had multiple answers. Each entrant could give three answers and get a point for each correct one. But, if they got a unique answer, they got double points. It was only done for fun with mates one night in (trying to avoid spending the night on the PS3 as my wife was attending).
For example
Three banks with colours in their names:
So you could say Black Sabbath, Black Eyed Peas, Pink, Snowy White etc etc etc.
At the end of the quiz, you go through the answers and anyone that gets a totally unique answer gets the double points.
The idea being that the answers are not as hard, but think that bit harder and you stand more chance of winning.
I have a copy of the quiz if you want to see it for ideas - mail in my profile.

Off the top of me head on quizzes I've been to:-
Last letter of previous band is first letter of next band;
All first letters go towards an anagram for bonus points;
1 point for easy first song, 2 points for slightly harder song, etc. etc. Team keeps guessing until they want to 'stick'. If they get a song wrong they lose all points (suppose like Who Wants to Be millionaire stylee).
One hit wonders
