Encore Question of September 8th, 2001.
Played at The Frog & Firkin in North York Ontario.

Answers:

  1. Allison Krauss
  2. David Hildago
  3. Barbra Streisand
  4. John Popper
  5. Ladysmith Black Mambazo

I'm playing with Bill MADDOG and Dave COITIS tonight and having a dreadful game knowing I can't get 20000 points while still in the OnBeat round. My higher board ROCKET also died at the end of that round. I'm second behind Bill.

  
My game so far had gone like this:
TuneUp...ROCKET...4500/5000...2nd/8 in four way tie with HOTTIE and COITIS.
.........LITBOX...4500/5000...2nd/8...MADDOG wins with 5000.
OnBeat...ROCKET...9250/14000...2nd/8...I win round...MADDOG has lead with 9750.
.........LITBOX...8000/14000...3rd/8...This soccer season is keeping me from
reading music news.
JukeBox...LITBOX...11818/20000...2nd/7...MADDOG wins round and has 14562.
Triviaoke...LITBOX...17017/28000...2nd/9...COITIS wins round.

The answers come up and I'm not sure what to think because these names are all over the musical spectrum. I fit together the groups that 2 and 4 are in but don't bother with my book.

Encore Question:...Dolly Parton's album "Treasures" features all of these guest artists except:

.

.

I don't know this but try to work out who Dolly Parton would work with. Would she work for the South African vocal group Ladysmith Black Mambazo? That's the one I doubt but think it may be more a class struggle so Barbra Streisand is more likely. Would Barbra work think she was a country hick? Dave is thinking the same thing. Bill agrees. Ok so we're all in.

Correct Answer:...3. Barbra Streisand

[NTN Extra Fact:...David Hildago is in the band Los Lobos and John Popper is a member of Blues Travellor.]

I'm right and stay in 2nd place finishing with 25525 points. I earn 3000+ Players Plus points by meeting this week's standard of 20000. I finish 1991st in North America and the bar is 231st. Bill wins.

Here's how the rest of the bar did:
Player 	preEncore	Final	Rank
MADDOG	19761		29641	 700
LITBOX	17017		25525	1991
COITIS	16793		25189	2097
CRASH	14178	x	 9925	6886
FLYERS	13552	x	 6776	7874
CRANKY	 8019	x	 4009	8742
MARCK	 7664	x	 3832	8797
KARM	 6928		 9006	7174
MORON	   0		   0	9999

Other games:...I start the evening with 1472800 Players Plus points for ROCKET and 56000 with LITBOX. All points tonight until the Playback game were earned as ROCKET.
8:00pm...Countdown...7110/15000...2nd?/5...I earn 1000+ points...I'm 4072nd in NA...bar is 1437th...CRANKY wins...I'm here in time for the last twelve questions.
