Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What band did a cover of Golden Earring's "Radar Love"?

Answer: White Lion

Although a remake, this song is probably one of the band's best!

2. What "hair" metal band beat Nirvana to capture the AMA award for best new heavy metal/hard rock band of 1991 (the awards show was held in January, 1992)?

Answer: Firehouse

Soon after receiving this award, Firehouse went on tour with Warrant and Trixter. Having hits like "Love of a Lifetime", "Don't Treat Me Bad", and "When I Look into Your Eyes", these southern boys were lost in the uprising of grunge. Though they have had some line up changes, the group still performs in clubs throughout the country.

3. Who sang back up on Guns N Roses' song "Don't Cry"?

Answer: Shannon Hoon

Shannon Hoon was the lead singer of Blind Melon. The band had little success with their song "No Rain". I can remember the little freckle faced red head in the bee costume...can't you?

4. On what album by Warrant did songs like "Down Boys", "32 Pennies" and "Big Talk" appear?

Answer: Dirty Rotten Filthy Stinking Rich

Warrant's second album "Cherrie Pie" made them a household name. Fifteen years later, the band is almost back to the original lineup and they can still put "a smile on your face ten miles wide"!

5. What band recorded the songs "The Ballad of Jayne" and "It's Over Now"?

Answer: LA Guns

"The Ballad of Jane" was about a former porn star.

6. "Bang Bang" and "Naughty Naughty" were songs recorded by what band?

Answer: Danger Danger

Danger Danger gained some success with their catchy repeating titles. Once the band was booked as "Danger Banjo". I wonder if it was a southern show!

7. Which member of Motley Crue actually had a near death experience?

Answer: Nikki Sixx

Nikki overdosed on heroin in the 80's and actually flat lined! Thankfully, the Big Man above had other plans for him and he continues to ROCK!

8. Feuds between bands are nothing new. What singer once had a "Kill Bon Jovi" sticker on his guitar?

Answer: James Hetfield

Bands from different genres tend to dislike each other. Why? I don't know. Man, it's only rock and roll and I like it!

9. If you hear songs like "Lumberjack" and "Chainsaw", what band are you likely listening to?

Answer: Jackyl

Jackyl is one of those bands that you could never forget. Jesse James Dupree's onstage presence is something not to be ignored. He will actually fire a chainsaw up and cut through bar stools!

10. Gary Cherone, former lead singer of Extreme, went on to front what legendary band?

Answer: Van Halen

With Sammy Hagar's departure in the 90's, Gary's tenor voice filled in....and not very well I may add. He should stick to singing love songs!
