    Yes, you really do suck. Surprising for a Brit who are usually more up on this stuff. Too much soccer nonsense rolling around in your head apparently. 😮

    Before my time largely, and I'm not that in to music. Trivia doesn't hold much interest for me.

    Nothing musically during "your time" is interesting enough to do trivia about.

    (just what "time" is your time?)

      I'm almost 30. Growing up I had british bands like Oasis and Blur, then the punk-rock-pop groups like green day, blink 182, offspring and sum 41.

        30 is the beginning of the end.

            Baby boomer music is highly overrated. Most of your "legendary" stuff actually sucks balls.

            Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind...

              I think the main reason for baby boomer music being overrated is it is played to death

              If I never hear Boston, Aerosmith, Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, again, I will not miss it

                Some does. Much or Most is very good. Nearly all of your stuff sucks balls. (the term "legendary" cannot be applied).

                  But, it got that stuff being played to death for you to not want to hear it again. Most of your stuff leaves you with that same feeling after one listening.

                    Maybe next week I will tailor a trivia quiz around the music you whippersnappers listen to. What era/genre would you like me to come up with some stuff?

                    I mean, how much of Right Said Fred, Ace of Base and Hanson can I come up with?

                      Very good and sucks balls are subjective descriptors.

                      I recently heard a couple radio personalities yammering about rock music stating one of them believed that Green Day was one of the greatest 5 American groups of all time.

                      My personal opinion is that no group comes close to the Beatles for influence and impact in the United States and worldwide. And it is unlikely with the explosion of media that there will ever be another in that category.

                                    Then I stand corrected. I was under the foolish impression that you were talking about his actual name.

                                      I will give the answers since you all have seem to forgotten what this thread is supposed to be about:

                                      1. The Amboy Dukes

                                      2. Happy Trails, Roy Rogers show song

                                      3. Billie Joe

                                      4. Pomona College and Oxford

                                      5. Mama Cass Elliot and Keith Moon.

                                      I would guess Billy Joe would be spelled with a Y and not an IE.

                                      I'm pretty sure Billie joe Armstrong from green day at least is spelled like that

                                        I'm not going to respond further to Gipper's "get off my lawn you damn kids" posts. If you're not going to give music that's not in your generation it's due that's fine but you can't stop it from earning it's place in the zeitgeist.

                                          So we are actually talking about the old song and Green Day rather than BJ Thomas' name?

                                          Thanks for the update.
