Norm Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 [quote name='Cairobill' timestamp='1404847112' post='2496381'] 9/10 - thought the bland looking geezer in Coldplay was the bland looking geezer in Kings of Leon... [/quote] Me too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosmo Valdemar Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 9/10 - 3 of which were guesses. God bless Pete Quaife and his massive Rickenbacker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indiegrungesound Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 (edited) [quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1404820140' post='2495955'] 8/10 also. Although since I count Snow Patrol and Coldplay as being completely interchangeable I think I can claim 9/10 ;-) [/quote] Very unfair on Mr Berryman. But ta very much for the heads up. Because... ... I got the full 10!!! BOOM!!! B-) Always nice to see a mention for Jenny Lee Lindberg too(Pardon the spoiler!)!

yorks5stringer Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 8/10 , got 4 and 10 wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul_5 Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 7/10. I recognised Hooky, but guessed all the others. Was it the girl from Warpaint? I love their first album but couldn't tell you what she looks like. All of the others (apart from Dusty Gibbons and one other, but I won't spoil it for people who haven't done the quiz) were a shot in the dark.

2004gdavi Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 7/10 without looking at clues from this thread or elsewhere. More bass related stuff in the mainstream please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRedX Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 I would have thought that 4 of those bassists should have been recognisable to everybody on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discreet Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 [quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1404897389' post='2496713'] I would have thought that 4 of those bassists should have been recognisable to everybody on here. [/quote] True, but I wonder if they're the same four for everyone? I recognised five instantly; John Entwistle (hardly surprising), Tina Weymouth, Dusty Hill, Peter Hook and Bernard Edwards. Showing my age there, possibly... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toneknob Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1404897643' post='2496715'] True, but I wonder if they're the same four for everyone? I recognised five instantly; John Entwistle (hardly surprising), Tina Weymouth, Dusty Hill, Peter Hook and Bernard Edwards. Showing my age there, possibly... [/quote] Yep, I got those no problem by recognition. The others: 1. It's not Alex James, and he doesn't look American. So he's from Oasis (plus he looks a bit, you know) 4. That looks like the curly mop of a random Stroke on the right 6. It's not Gurno out of Haim, I've heard of Warpaint and they have a mostly-girl line-up so it must be 8. It's not Mickey Dolenz on drums, and they're too foppish to be American. Not mod enough for the Yardbirds, plus I'd probably recognise their bassist 10. Bloc Party and Snow Patrol aren't "world famous" (and if they are they shouldn't be), and he doesn't look American Bingo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spinynorman Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 5/10. I did better in [url="http://www.theguardian.com/books/shortcuts/quiz/2014/jul/11/poet-pamela-anderson-sylvia-plath-quiz"]Who's the poet[/url]: Pamela Anderson or Sylvia Plath?

winterfire666 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 3/10 for me, ha ha :^) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevB Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Rattled through it in 30 secs, 7/10. Couldn't recognise Oasis, Strokes or Coldplay. Rather pleased at the ones I missed tbh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Dave Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 I was doing OK - knew 4 of the first 5 - but then as I got bored I scrolled to a link with a picture of Pamela Anderson so I clicked on that ! A fine example to practise the sexual technique of 'double bassing' on I reckon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
