  2. Tim McGraw
  3. T-Pain
  4. Tone Loc
  5. Tom Petty

Tonight I'm playing with three boards as ROCKET, LITBOX, and SERBWE (in tribute to the 2008 CSL soccer champs Serbian White Eagles) with Rob COSMO, Sean METLCA and Phil PLBAAB.

My game so far had gone like this:
TuneUp...ROCKET...5000/5000...1st/6...my three boards win with METLCA.
.............LITBOX...5000/5000...1st/6. 
.............SERBWE...5000/5000...1st/6...I have to guess one but it wasn't a hard round.
OnBeat...ROCKET...14000/14000...1st/6...all six of our boards sweep the round with 9 for 9.
............LITBOX...14000/14000...1st/6.
............SERBWE...14000/14000...1st/6...I got help on one answer.  I thought the choices were easier in that a
question asking what artist left a Country music label only had three of the five choices as Country acts.
Jukebox...ROCKET...18480/20000...4th/6...COSMO wins round...I get all the categories I want. 
............LITBOX...18501/20000...3rd/6.
............SERBWE...18238/20000...5th/6.
Triviaoke...ROCKET...22814/28000...4th/6.
.............LITBOX...22835/28000...3rd/6.
............SERBWE...22132/28000...5th/6...I take two -250s this round and am steered away from another wrong one
from my friends.  I get the lyrics to Nickelback's 'Rockstar' because I play that video often.

Now the Encore question comes up. Names that begin with 'T'? Quite a mix of musical styles.

Encore Question:...Who gives his phone number to a waitress in his "Whatever You Like" video?

.

I've seen this video a few times. It's like a dream sequence for the waitress as if this star would actually stop by in a take-out food place. Even if I had never seen the video, the song was the Number 1 single on the charts earlier in the month and still hangs on as Number 2. I've also seen the star sing this on talk shows.

Correct Answer:....1. TI

[NTN Extra Fact:...He then showers her with gifts of jewellery, a car, and whatever else she likes.]

I might have mixed up TI with T-Pain but I remembered T-Pain is using a circus theme on his last album and is wearing a top hat in all his videos and talk show appearances the last few months.

I'm right and stay in 3rd as LITBOX at 34252. I finish 14th overall for all North America. The bar is 7th in NA with a 34673 average. I earn 3000+ points for making this week's standard of 15000 points...COSMO wins and places 6th on the Network Top 20 and 9th on this bar's Hall of Fame.
(ntn.com kept our bar in 7th out of 1710 locations)

Here's how the rest of the bar did: 
Player	preEncore	Final	Rank	ntn.com rank
COSMO	24269		36403	   6	  20	
METLCA	23528		35292	  10	  37
LITBOX	22835		34252	  14	  52
