Hello gang, here's the answers and the scores from my round of schiz's Trivia Dealie. Hope you liked them and they werent too easy for you. I had some of you specifically in mind when I wrote the question, like question 3 for example I knew if anyone was going to get it right it would be Soror or Gowie. So well done.
A quick note, as many pointed out question 7 was slightly flawed. My wording got messed up from the way I had originally wrote it and I somehow got two trains of thought going. I was slightly distracted as I was typing it it out as one of my dogs had eye surgery earlier that day so apologies. In the interest of fairness due to my mistake I'm giving everyone a point for that one that didn't get it. So without further adue here's the scores and the answers. Have a great weekend everyone!
Scores
Soror_YZBL - 7
CycoMiko138 - 6
Timmay9 - 5

Grats to Soror for being the big winner in this weeks quiz.

Oh, dammit! I didn't read the question full before! It doesn't help now, though. That was when the guy thought that Zappa was giving looks to his girlfriend and then he knocked Zappa into the orchestra pit. Didn't one of the record labels get the girlfriend to apologize as a publicity stunt?
