Do you know "Band Quiz" or Bands - Original1? It was an email attachment (Excel file with band photo quiz) that was passed around a while back. Had 270 photos of bands and you simply had to name them all...

How many did you get?
What are all the correct answers?

(Maybe I'll regret this but ... if you don't know what I'm talking about but want a copy, email me and I'll send you a copy.)

Oh god, what did I get? I think about 170/180?

― Rum, Sodomy and the LAN (kate), Tuesday, 19 July 2005 14:58 (twenty years ago)

Oh I have this somewhere. Where you have to get "THE" in there if it should be, otherwise you get "Incorrect"...

Working together, we could solve them all, no?

― Matt Sab (Matt Sab), Wednesday, 20 July 2005 14:53 (twenty years ago)

3. ?

― Matt Sab (Matt Sab), Wednesday, 27 July 2005 15:20 (twenty years ago)

I have most of the answers if you want them

― Susan Abenilla-Brown, Wednesday, 27 July 2005 20:05 (twenty years ago)

Could someone send me the quiz please?

― LeRooLeRoo (Seb), Wednesday, 27 July 2005 20:44 (twenty years ago)

have 209 out of 270. eg 13 Undertones, 19T'Pau, 78 Communards. I need 23,26,31, 33,41, 55, 65, 67, 79, 99,100,104, 112,136,138, 146,148. These will do for a start.

― Michael Stove, Friday, 29 July 2005 12:24 (twenty years ago)

Well the oneI've got has Hayzi Fantayzi, which'll be right when I get the right spelling!

― mark grout (mark grout), Friday, 29 July 2005 12:30 (twenty years ago)

Hayzi Fantayzee, then.

― mark grout (mark grout), Friday, 29 July 2005 12:31 (twenty years ago)

Uhm, you could just look up the names in the actual excel sheet.

Don't remember how well I did (not all that great, I think) but was shocked and disgusted by getting The Cheeky Girls!
I still have no clue who Chas & Dave are though.

― Øystein (Øystein), Friday, 29 July 2005 12:35 (twenty years ago)

Susan has every answer, except 65 and 199

― Matt Sab (Matt Sab), Friday, 29 July 2005 12:39 (twenty years ago)

Did this some months ago, seem to have got 173. I don't think I tried more than max 4-5 guesses at each before moving on, though.

You want a hint for #199?

― OleM (OleM), Friday, 29 July 2005 16:20 (twenty years ago)

173 is Level 42. Remember them? Ha!

― -vest, Friday, 29 July 2005 16:44 (twenty years ago)

They have misspelled too many band names for this to be anything other than a beating-head-against-wall experience!

― nabisco (nabisco), Friday, 29 July 2005 16:50 (twenty years ago)

OMG great moments in the history of me and ILX: I have always seen people mention the Wombles and never had any particular idea what they were talking about. And then, midway through this quiz, one little picture, and ... yes, there is no doubt in my mind that these are the Wombles in question.

― nabisco (nabisco), Friday, 29 July 2005 17:00 (twenty years ago)

Also, obvious hints in response to questions above:

41 - turn off lights, tune up woodwinds
55 - notice how God is on the left?
75 - this hint should be pictorial, and not just words
99 - the Kyle MacLaughlin Three? (I honestly don't know)
100 - the number corresponds cleverly with the band
146 - notice the very important lady in the back?

― nabisco (nabisco), Friday, 29 July 2005 17:38 (twenty years ago)

Funnily enough, I suddenly noticed yesterday that about half the people at work have a copy of this file in their home folder.

― Pam Mullens, Monday, 29 May 2006 11:59 (nineteen years ago)

someone has to have the password to unprotect the sheet...then all will be revealed. Anybody willing to share?

The goofy guys in #81 and the spacey guys in #218 are killing us. Anyone know those?

― sanman, Tuesday, 30 May 2006 02:02 (nineteen years ago)

81 is Black Lace & 218 is Go West!!!

Any help with 8, 11, 16, 21,22, 23,26 will do for now thanks! The rest can wait.
