Modo atual:  empolgado

Now, this seems VERY OBVIOUS but please do not post your answer as a comment to the blog, send us a message so its private and you don't give everyone else the answers ... OK??

The person who answers the most questions correctly will win a pair of tickets to the August 13 show at Fitzgerald's - The first show back ... If there is a tie, the winner will be determined by the order of the messages I receive.

1. Big Drill Car released 4 full length records and one EP ... What are the names of the 5 records and what labels were they ORIGINALLY released on?

SMALL BLOCK - VARIENT RECORDS (later re-released on CRUZ), TYPE THING - CRUZ RECORDS, BATCH - CRUZ RECORDS, TOURED - HEADHUNTER/CARGO RECORDS, NO WORSE FOR THE WEAR - HEADHUNTER/CARGO RECORDS

2. What is written in the matrix of the VINYL RELEASES of Small Block, Type Thing and Batch? (This must have been a hard question as only 3 people got it right).

SMALL BLOCK - AND SHE'LL SPIN, TYPE THING - POINTS ANYONE, BATCH - NOTHING WRITTEN OTHER THAN CATALOG NUMBERS

3. OK - A coupla questions here about the artwork of the band. Who is responsible for MOST of the artwork for the band (albums covers, t-shirts, flyers, etc). What is the image on the cover of "Type Thing." Who/What is the driver of the Big Drill Car (on insert of Small Block, on the new poster and our default picture for the moment).

BOB THOMSON IS THE ARTIST RESPONSIBLE FOR MOST OF THE ART. THE IMAGE ON THE FRONT OF TYPE THING IS: A MAGNAFIED IMAGE OF A RECORD NEEDLE PLAYING A RECORD. THE DEVIL DOG IS THE DRIVER OF THE BIG DRILL CAR

4. More questions about the records, this time about the music: a). who did the GUITAR lead on the song ICK? b). Who is Rich Cranium? c). In the song LET ME WALK, there is a vocal error that is left on the record. Frank sang the wrong phrase and it doesn't make sense. You don't have to know what the original lyrics were to get this error. What's the error?

THE GUITAR LEAD DONE ON ICK WAS DONE BY: RICH CRANIUM, RICH CRANIUM IS STEPHEN EGERTON, THE VOCAL ERROR IN LET ME WALK IS: "CAN I HAVE TO MAKE IT BLACK AND WHITE."

5. LAST QUESTION: This question is about nicknames. Each guy in the band has one ... Some have more than one, some of their nicknames are used constantly and others are rarely used at all anymore. I'm even going to throw in some extra nicknames to throw you off a little bit ... All nicknames will be of people who are band related in some way. I know this is difficult, guess, go for it:

We are looking for the nick names of: Bob, Danny, Frank and Mark.

Choose from: Hollywood, Ribeye, Padman, The Kid, Rhino, Santa, Wee Bah, Midtown, Two-Thirds

NICKNAMES: BOB-WEE BAH, FRANK - THE KID, MARK - SANTA, DANNY - HOLLYWOOD, MIDTOWN and PADMAN... THE OTHER NON-BAND MEMBER NICKNAMES ARE: A FRIEND AND ROADIE IS - TWO-THIRDS, THE GUY WHO MADE UP THE NAME OF THE BAND IS RHINO, AND THE MANAGER IS RIBEYE.

THANKS FOR PLAYING.

THE WINNER: FERRETRAX!!!! He got every question right and was first to answer. Congrats to FERRETRAX!!!

I'd just like to point out that my copy of Small Block never came with an insert. Was that a European thing? If it did, I'd have frigging nailed that quiz. Not that I would have any use for the ticket as I'm about 5000 miles away. I will be at Chicago however.

It was many many years ago, but it was new vinyl. At the time tho, it was very common for the european releases of US records to be missing the inserts. Dunno why. Cheaper I guess.

Just relised that it's the Cruz re-release version i've got. Which will probably explain the missing insert mystery.

you must've gotten a bum copy - even the CRUZ re-release had the insert ... The Varient insert had my home address on it, the CRUZ re-release had a PO Box for a band contact ...
Sorry about that brother.
