Encore Question of September 1st, 2001
Played at The Frog & Firkin in North York Ontario.
Answers:
Tonight I'm playing with Richard BERGIE, Dave COITIS, and Bill MADDOG. Our scores weren't good at all as I hadn't much time to keep up with the music scene during the soccer season so my OnBeat round suffered. I also had a dreadful round during Triviaoke.
My game so far had gone like this: TuneUp:...4500/5000...2nd/11 in three way tie...FLYERS wins with perfect round. OnBeat:...8500/14000...2nd/11...BERGIE wins round and has lead at 9750. I have 4 right and 5 I don't even guess. JukeBox...13417/20000...2nd/11...I win this round...BERGIE has lead with 14533. Triviaoke...15047/28000...2nd/10...JOEPNK wins round but BERGIE keeps lead.
So this question would be something about artists from the 1960s or the 1970s. Well let's hope I can salvage something from this game. I bookmark Cat Stevens and Tommy James.
Encore Question:...What big name musician quit the business and became a Muslim teacher named 'Yusef Islam'?
Well I don't need my book for this. I think all of us knew the answer.
Correct Answer:...1. Cat Stevens
NTN Extra Fact:...After making the big bucks, Stevens turned anti-US and later supported Hussein in the Gulf War.
I'm right and stay in 2nd with 22571. That was only good enough to rank 2199th in North America. I earn 3000+ Players Plus points by making the 15000 standard. Our bar was 494th in North America. BERGIE wins.
Here's how the rest of the bar did:
