Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Where was the Charles Baker Harrises' first live appearance?

Answer: Allestree Woodlands School

Woodlands- the trio covered the song 'Scar Tissue' by the Red Hot Chili Peppers at a talent show after waiting about ten minutes for the mic-stand to be set up correctly.

2. What did Baker make a hole in at the end of the Charles Baker Harrises' first recording of 'Dill Forever'?

Answer: The wall

The wall! This is also the Charles Baker Harrises' first post on their Facebook page.

3. Finish the lyric: "I'm sorry I helped her leave you..."

Answer: I guess now you'll have to start anew

"I guess now you'll have to start anew" - the hint is that it rhymes! The song is '0+0' and all the other options are also from the song.

4. Which book is the Charles Baker Harrises' name a character from?

Answer: To Kill a Mockingbird

It's 'To Kill a Mockingbird'- the character is Charles Baker 'Dill' Harris and the majority of CBH song titles are quotes from him.

5. Which of these Charles Baker Harrises' song titles isn't a quote from the fictitious character Dill Harris?

Answer: Dill Forever

'Dill Forever' isn't a quote- it's based on the song title 'Boo Forever' by the Boo Radleys (Arthur 'Boo' Radley is also a character in 'To Kill a Mockingbird').

6. Finish the Charles Baker Harrises lyric: "I won't kill your dreams and tie you down..."

Answer: I won't deafen you without a sound

"I won't deafen you without a sound"- this line includes a cheeky oxymoron. It's from the often overlooked (even by the band) song 'I'm Little But I'm Old'. The "frown upside down" lyric is from 'St. Ides Heaven' by Elliott Smith. You should listen to it, it's great.

7. What is the nickname of the Charles Baker Harrises member who was the last to add his nickname to his facebook name?

Answer: Harris

It's Harris. 'Charles Baker Harris' is a name of three parts and the band has three members so each member was given one part of the name to be their nickname. This question is pretty hard unless you stalk the band...

8. When the Charles Baker Harrises played in Derby Corn market in 2015, it was a part of which festival?

Answer: Furthest From The Sea

It's the Derby 'Furthest From the Sea' festival and the Charles Baker Harrises played seven songs.

9. What song by The Boo Radleys did the Charles Baker Harrises cover many times in the 'early days'?

Answer: If You Want It, Take It

'If You Want It, Take It' - they played it live at the Victoria Inn about three times, at Darley Barn and as the audition song for the school talent show. 'Lazurus' is another song from the Boo Radleys' album 'Giant Steps'. 'Scar Tissue', if you've been paying attention, is by the RHCP, and 'The Cause' is a NOFX song.

10. Finish the lyric: "You can't avoid, you can't swerve the void..."

Answer: It will continue to impend, what's likely to be your only life will end

"It will continue to impend...". It's from the song 'I Smell Death'. The others are from 'Dill Forever', 'Folks Call Me Dill' and 'Lame Excuses For Terrible Lives' (I'll let you figure out which is which).
