Tonight I'm in 11th place playing all alone at my end of the bar. I'm not doing too bad with 21173 points and put 50% of my points on the line although I don't know a lot about these bands.

My game so far had gone like this:
Tune-Up....5000/5000....1st/15...four players tied at 5000...ROCKET, PLBAAB, ARCHER, ENIGMA.
OnBeat....9000/14000....13th/18...PLBAAB, KELLY, MOLSON hold lead with 12750. I got five right and four wrong as I don't have time to keep up the current music scene.
JukeBox...13300/20000...13th/18...PLBAAB in lead with 17915.
Triviaoke...21173/28000...11th/16.

Question:...."Latin Playboys" is the name of a spin-off group from this band.

I don't know the answer but don't think it would be the alternative group Fastball. I had given MOLSON a signal to answer "And then I die" to the Triviaoke song by Vicki Carr 'It Must Be Him'. It enabled him to jump ahead in the group of The Regulars. He thanked me and offered to help. I took up his offer for the Encore question. He said ELVIS told the rest of their group.

Correct Answer:...3 Los Lobos

[extra fact:...The Playboys include David and Louie Perez, songwriters from Los Lobos].

I'm right and hold my position in 11th place. I finish with 31759 points and earn 3000 Players Plus points for meeting the 17000 point standard. I finish 292nd in North America. The bar is 4th in North America with a 35756 average. I made a note that I've earned 882300 Players Points overall.
