Got 57/115 in the New and Old Bands. (there were a few I blacked out on that I should have gotten)

Don't really care enough about the 80's to do the other two, would probably not get that good of a score.

42/24/86.  Some extremely ordinary looking people in the metal bands quiz.

21/115 in New and Old


That's embarrassing


BUT HEY I GOT DREAM THEATER AND ANNIHILATOR RIGHT!

I just don't understand what they were trying to achieve with any part of the song, either individually or as a whole. You know what? It's the Platypus of Dream Theater songs. That bill doesn't go with that tail, or that strange little furry body, or those webbed feet, and oh god why does it have venomous spurs!? And then you find out it lays eggs too. The difference is that the Platypus is somehow functional despite being a crazy mishmash or leftover animal pieces

Pretty lame on the first category. Wish I knew who I missed on the last category ... Hmmm, just realized I didn't try U2.

I'm not sure how I got 89 on the last one. I seemed to get about 50 from typing in Michael Jackson  ???

I got 25. I'm just happy I beat somebody. :lol

I got 16/24 on the song one, a bit more respectable. I'm more inclined to know bands and their songs than I am their faces.

I know my 80's bands though, 115/120 there. :hat

Yeah that was kind of disappointing, I was really curious to see who I had forgotten, too.

49/115 Timed out on Ozzy, which would have been 50. Strangely, recognized Randy Rhodes and Lee Kerslake, but not Ozzy's young ass.

1. 59
2. 21
3. 66

I'm actually pretty happy I beat quite a few people on the first one.  I didn't think I did that well.

Ditto. I also Mangini'd upon seeing that one.

Only got 61. There were a few I knew but the bands used a different spelling. Also it's Dream Theatre.  :yeahright
