Music A-C: 'B' Trivia Questions
91. Be-Bop Deluxe was formed during 1972, and like many new and emerging bands, even today, they played their first shows at a popular public meeting place. At which sort of venue did the band play their first gig?

From Quiz "Be Careful... I'm an Axe Victim!" - Be-Bop Deluxe

Answer: Public house

Be-Bop Deluxe made their first appearance as a band at 'Ye Olde Duke of Cumberland' a public house located in North Ferriby near Hull, Yorkshire, during August 1972. After rapidly building a reputation locally, Be-Bop Deluxe came to the attention of the great BBC disc jockey, John Peel and, after recording songs for Peel's show 'Top Gear' (No, not THAT 'Top Gear'!) they were signed by EMI Harvest records on the 22nd of February 1974. A reference to the venue at which the band began their career, locally known simply as 'The Duke', is made by the band in the lyric to the title track of the band's first album, 'Axe Victim' which was released in 1974.

From Quiz The Music of Between the Buried and Me

Answer: Barbie and Ken dolls

Answer: A standing ovation

She got a standing ovation. Her voice has been called spellbinding, amazing, and magical.

107. The Beloved set the listener a riddle at the start of the song. "Consider, if you will this great big question, unanswered still oh, can you spot the difference that lies between the colour _____ and the colour _____". Which colours?

From Quiz Anatomy of a Song: "Hello"

Answer: Blue and green

A complicated riddle that is answered later in the song - "What's the answer? It's plain to see - blue is blue and always will be". So now you know! Of course the difference between blue and green, as anyone who knows their primary colours will be aware of, is the colour yellow, which just happens to rhyme with "Hello". Coincidence? I think not.
