DT Trivia quiz

I would fancy my chances although by rights, Rich Wilson would probably own all

MP vs Rich Wilson or Scotty

I would love to see that! Maybe the only 2 people on this planet who can beat MP.

Then you should really try Trivial Pursuit Beatles version !!!
It has five degrees of difficult... you should really buy it !
(or maybe you even know in which exact Liverpool road where Ringo's family moved when he was six? )

Bih matches here in Rome, I own it !

:)

What do you own? The Beatles game or the Portnoy/Akerfeldt metal trivia battle's video?

I have the Beatles game !

Where was Jordan and his iphone???
We NEED to see this!

Agreed! I'd love to see that. MP's metal round table discussions on Eddie Trunk's show are my favorite aspect of it. Him and Jericho and Eddie furiously spitting out as much arcane metal knowledge as quickly as they can, often talking all at once about obscure bands like Demon. I love it. Would be great for Akerfeldt to be a part of one of those!

Although I do indeed know my Prog, I am even more of a master of classic rock/classic metal trivia...(listen to any of the metal summits I've done on Eddie Trunk's radio show)

MP

There is NO disputing ANY of that.....
I'd love a challenge of Metal/Classic Rock Trivia, as well.

I just recently acquired the Beatles version of Trivial Pursuit......
I only WISH I had the opportunity to challenge MP in a game of that. Hey, I'd be fair. It's still shrink wrapped.....

I did horribly, but was surprised that I got one that MP missed (Gentle Giant guitarist).

I told Roadrunner, next time I do one of these, I want to do either Metal trivia or even more fun, DT Trivia!!! (which I have a feeling NOBODY would beat me at!)

MP

Why don't we try it? How about a DT Trivia contest where anybody who can beat you wins the ultimate DT Prize of their choice (within reason)?

Not really. But I gotta say, that was one tough-ass quiz.

Re: MP takes another Prog Quiz (Tonedef)

Sun, 15 Nov 2009 11:41:43 GMT

I think with the information Rich Wilson has gathered for the books, he would be a good challenger. I would also add Setlist Scotty as well.

Do not understimate the power of the geekiness of your fanbase Mike...

:p

I can actually picture it:

MP: Yeah after I caught a ton of mice to get into berklee I introduced the secret cowbel to the guys in 84, and they're impressed

DTgeek0618: No Mike actually you did that in '83

The quote in Voyage 34 is not from Van der Graaf Generator but from Pink Floyd (Run Like Hell).

At least if they are talking about the part that I'm thinking...

12/15. I actually had no idea there was a VDGG sample on Voyage 34. But then, I've never listened to it much.

I really love these! I hope they do more... I'd be happy to see any musician, prog or otherwise, give these a whirl. It's all good fun.

I would've got the Chester Thompson, Aimee Mann, Silent Sun, Clapton, Star and The VDGG track in Porcupine Tree questions. Portnoy did incredibly on this!

..... "mother.... fuckers....."

Re:MP takes another Prog Quiz (Bluntobject)

Fri, 13 Nov 2009 03:42:59 GMT

I got one. I should have got the king crimson one but I misread the question (thought it said name five tracks). Those were f'n tough!

Edit: And I was already listening to Voyage 34 directly before I saw this, and I still got that one wrong! Ha!

I was doing it along with him, I got a 9 out of 15.

I got most of the ones he got wrong, but I didn't know the Camel question that he got the half point on, but I knew the track from Genesis' first album, the guitarist from Gentle Giant and Alan White's solo album.

Pretty cool impromptu quiz.

I'm pretty sure someone will beat 9 out of 15. The Porcupine Tree question was probably a gimme, but I'm not a fan.

Re:MP takes another Prog Quiz (DTAggie)
