Encore Question of July 26th, 1997.
Answers:
Tonight I arrive after watching a soccer game and play the last half of the Triviaoke round. I win the round though. With 3185 points and positioned 4th of 6 players, I risk 1592 points. Each answer has a day in the week in it but the songs I know or can eliminate if I see the choices.
Question:..What day-of-the-week song was a hit for the Boomtown Rats?
Well no problem for me. No need to think about it as I clicked in my answer.

Correct Answer: 5. I Don't Like Mondays
I'm right and finish with 4777 points. I earn 1000+ Players Plus points for 10 minutes work. I finish 8406th in North America and the bar finishes 1912th. Five of our six players got this right. MADDOG wins with 14249 points. It turns out that's Bill's (IDONO) new name.
The band tonight was 'Wild T' which was a trio of drums, bass and guitar that played funky soul music. The drummer was filling in for the regular one they said. The guitarist wandered off stage during a drum and bass solo. Almost their entire 2nd set was played by a trio of guest musicians who played almost identical. I don't think this pleased too many of the regulars.
The tv played the Holyfield-Tyson fight from last month (ear-biting dq) and that caused my attention to drift in the 1:00am game.
