NTN Encore Question of October 6th, 2007.
Played at The Frog & Firkin in North York, Ontario.
Answers:
Tonight I'm playing with two boards as ROCKET and LITBOX with Sean METLCA/COSMO and Phil PLBAAB at The Frog & Firkin. I got Sean a second board half hour before this game started but he forgot to sign until the OnBeat round.
My game so far had gone like this: TuneUp...ROCKET...5000/5000...1st/10...Our four boards co-win round with either three or four others. ..........LITBOX...5000/5000...1st/10. I didn't have to guess anything this round. OnBeat...ROCKET...11000/14000...2nd/11...METLCA wins round with 7 right. ..........LITBOX...11000/14000...2nd/11. I go 6 right and 3 wrong. I'm still catching up on music news so would like to do better next week. JukeBox...ROCKET...16138/20000...2nd/11...ROCKET wins round. ...........LITBOX...16122/20000...4th/11. Triviaoke...ROCKET...23929/28000...2nd/11...ROCKET wins this round. .........LITBOX...23883/28000...3rd/11. Another good round for me. I don't think I took a -250. I got the final question of the round which is always a modern song right.

I don't know this. I don't know who these guys are. Well I've got home towns and band members to work with. Blink 182 are from San Diego...hmm but those are not the names of those guys aren't they Tom and Travis(?) [Yes]. No not Quiet Riot. Could be '3'. I say Deep Purple are from England. "Are Stone Temple Pilots from Seattle?" I ask Phil. Yes. Then it is '3'. "What about Quiet Riot?" Phil asks. "Nope their vocalist was Kevin DuBrow". I was on my way to the bar to tell the other group as we need that 5th board to get a good average but the aisle was blocked. I heard a cheer from them that they were right too.
Correct Answer:....3. Iron Butterfly
[NTN Extra Fact:...The group's biggest success came in 1968 with the multi-platinum "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida".
I'm right and stay in 2nd as ROCKET at 35893 points. I finish 11th overall in all North America. The bar is 10th in North America with a 34972 average. I earn 3000+ points for making this week's standard of 18000. Sean won and finished 10th on the Network Top 20 and 2nd on this bar's Hall Of Fame board.
