NTN Encore Question of February 27th, 2010.
Played at The Squire & Firkin in Etobicoke, Ontario.
Headliner:...Guitarists or Side Projects or Benefits and Charities
only trouble is we got Billy Joel like last week.
I have the actual Encore question at the bottom of this page.
Encore Question:...Finish the lyrics to this Billy Joel song "Don't go changing to try and please me":
Tonight I'm playing as ROCKET and LITBOX with Rob COSMO, Sean METLCA and Phil PLBAAB.
The questions were exactly the same as last week except for two. One of 'The Line Up' questions was different which we didn't get (just like last week). The other was the Encore wording and choices were a bit different. We didn't get a perfect Headliner round like last week because Rob called out a wrong answer which turned out to be right for the Encore answer. Actually the correct Encore answer was given as a choice for about four of these Headliner questions.
Now the Encore betting comes up. Well 50% as usual.

The question is different and the other choices are different but the answer and the Extra Fact are the same.
Correct Answer:....5. Just The Way You Are
[NTN Extra Fact:...The song from Joel's popular 'The Stranger' album was a hit in 1978.]

It appears I have been able to get the new log-in conversion for my ROCKET board but not LITBOX as I can't remember the other e-mail address I used over ten years ago when I first registered.
Thanks to Rob POMAN for answering my e-mail about the Encore question that all others bars played. I would have got the correct answer as I've read about this before although I couldn't name any of their songs. (see below)
The Headliner category was Guitarists.
The final question was something like...Who was the founder of the group Nazz?
The answer was 5. Todd Rundgren
