    We have a few satirical shows that are nominally 'quiz shows' that are very good. In terms of pure games, University Challenge is quite good.

    Similar to alice cooper? How about:

    AC/DC - highway to hell

    Scorpion - rock you like a hurricane

    twisted sister - we're not gonna take it

    Guns 'n' Roses - sweet child of mine

    Probably a load more that I can't remember right now.

  • Gip - you're asking about very american things. I don't really care about basketball, and certainly don't care about hockey. As for HoF players, my football knowledge doesn't go as far back as most here, so it's difficult to say. If I ask you who's going to win the FA cup tomorrow, or who'll win the rugby world cup, you may have about as much of a clue as me about basketball/hockey.

  • Suede and Pulp

    Not too familiar with them......give us an example of one of their "anthems".

    The New Zealand All Blacks will win the rugby world cup......and my wish would be that Liverpool would win the FA cup

    They are like 80s bands. I don't think they made any waves at all over here.

    (and that pulp song is...to me...very un-anthem like).

  • Common people - to people of a certain age, it's a proper anthem. That, along with Ash's Oh Yeah, Blur's Country House, and Oasis' Definitely Maybe album were basically the soundtrack to the 90s for people who didn't find the spice girls all that great.

    Are you saying "exactly....those are the right answers"....or "exactly...see, you have no clue"?

    I do wish that the Rugby WC would get the same attention as the FIFA WC......hopefully the organization that runs Rugby isn't as corrupt.

    Well, either one of two things....or both apply here: A. I may be an old fogey and just don't know those songs, or B. Those were not major hits here in the US. Fair enough on either account.

    Liverpool are not in the FA cup, the final is tomorrow between Aston Villa (my team, Randy Lerner's team), and Arsenal.

    Rugby isn't as corrupt as FIFA, because there's not nearly as much money, because there's not nearly as much of a global appeal. It's in England this year, so I expect high attendances, but it's still somewhat of a colonial sport - the major powerhouses being the 'home nations' - England, Ireland etc. - and the antipodean three of Australia, NZ and South Africa. Outside of that, few countries are interested in a big way, and fewer are any good. France are decent, and Italy have come along a bit, but neither will come close to winning a world cup any time soon.

    Absolutely, I doubt all or even most of them made it over. Oasis are the best known globally, so if you've heard of any, it'd be them. Described often, loosely, as 'what the beatles would have sounded like if they started in this era' they were one of the iconic bands in modern UK music history.
