Here's a little musical exercise I saw at Cheezy's. The first step is to write down 10 bands quickly- the first ten off the top of your head. Mine are:
- Pink Floyd
- The Kinks
- The Grateful Dead
- The Moody Blues
- Led Zeppelin
- The Who
- Bela Fleck and the Flecktones
- Jeff Beck
- The Beatles
- Phish
Then, there's the questions.............
1. What was the first song you ever heard by 6? "Pinball Wizard"
2. What is your favourite album of 8? It's impossible to pick just one, but I'm still very enamored of his most recent, Jeff.
3. What is your favourite lyric of 5? "Lots of people talkin', very few of them know the soul of a woman was created below."
4. How many times have you seen 4 live? Once. My first concert!
5. What is your favourite song by 7? I love their version of "Hoedown".
6. Is there a song of 3 that makes you sad? "He's Gone"
7.What is your favourite lyric of 9? I've delayed posting this for 24 hours because I just can't answer this question. I almost chose the 2nd verse of "Let It Be", but there are SO MANY OTHER good ones. Hell, the Revolver album alone has me stymied.
8. What is your favourite song by 1? "Echoes"
9. How did you get into 8? Through friends.
10. What is your favourite song by 4? "Watching and Waiting"
11. How many times have you seen 1 live? Three
12. What is a good memory concerning 2? Scoring a fantastic video boot of one of their 70's shows
13. Is there a song by 2 that makes you sad? "Celluloid Heroes"
14. What is your favourite song of 6? "Long Live Rock"!
15. How did you become a fan of 10? A friend who didn't like them but knew I would brought a disc over and played it for me.
