The answers to a couple of these questions are going to be open to debate.
Mick and Keith themselves can't even agree on the answer to number #4.
I don't understand question #20. |
|
|
| fmk438j |
Gee, there's a couple there I have no clue and not sure if I can even find the answers. |

For question #4 use Keith's version 
For question #20 just answer the name of the group(s) and/or artist(s) that have been at the top of the bill in the same show and the Stones opened for them. |

Voodoo, I sent all my answers to Gazza in a private message yesterday morning, not in an email. does this mean Im eliminated? |
|
|
| VoodooChileInWOnderl |
No Soulie you're in, no problem, Gazza sent them to us and I re-send them in the way we asked for.
The reason to request the participants to send the asnwers in this way is that with just one click we can sort the e-mails by "SUBJECT" and move them all to a folder to review them.
At this moment you're the only one who has sent the asnwers, at this speed you'll get the three prizes |

I asked jaxx and Gazza about the deadline, I have not received a reply. Take your time, points are more important than being the first sending the answers.

so only a few of you have entered the challenge? come on. those photos are great. this is an OPEN BOOK TEST. i am urging y'all to GO FOR IT. since there have been so few responses, i am going to EXTEND THE DEADLINE to WENESDAY July 9. there are many websites and books out there that will contain the information. ladies? hello, where are you??? |
|
|
| stonedinaustralia |
i'm definetly going in jaxx
but there's still a few answers to be hunted down and there' still a bit more time
some of those questions are bloody difficult
that's why i, for one at least, need a dead line to work against |
|
|
| Soul Survivor |
I am pissed at myself that i didnt take more time cuz now my answers are already sent in! |
|
|
| Martha |
Ok, now that you've given me a deadline time that I can manage I'm gonna shoot for round one....Thanks Jaxx!
However, due to the nature of these (bloody hard for my speed/level)questions, I may wish ( and in fact, reserve the right) to recant the above statement at at later date.
Let the fun continue.

First of all, HAPPY BIRTHDAY JAXX !! I did wish you a Happy Birthday, on your actual birthday over at Gasland under the steel wls thread. (read my email I sent you too !!)
OK, here's the deal, I've known 24 of the 25 answers for like 3 or 4 days now !! However, anybody who knows me well knows that I am a PERFECTIONIST !! (that's why my albums take so fucking long to get finished !!) So I check my FIFTY (50) plus Stones reference books here in my library for the answer to the ONE question I don't know, I check the internet search engines and still came up with NOTHING !!! For the record, it's one of those, "Who said" questions. Finally tonight I decided to say, "Fuck It" I KNOW TWENTY FOUR of those questions, I'll take an educated "guess" on the "who said" question that I don't know.
I mean 24 out of 25 will get me in the dressing room right ?
So anyway, Here is my "official entry" notice.
I had to email each of the Trinity INDIVIDUALLY !! That "combo" link didn't work for me. Then again, my email of late has been FUCKING UP big time lately !!
Now I've Gotta Go Do Some "Stuff".
Later, Cardinal Fang
P.S. Please email me with the answer to that one question I didn't know. Did I score a 24 or did I score a 25 ? |

| VoodooChileInWOnderl |
Thanks Cardinal... I think soon we're gonna have some winner but TEY WON TON ON, great signature dude
Remember that Wedenesday is the deadline |

| Angiegirl |
Jeez, I sent them in. I'm exhausted, had to guess a few questions, not entirely sure. Must have read 10 books all over again, lol
I probably won't beat the Cardinal, but I gave it a try. Jaxx's cry for women participation worked I guess, lol.
Will you post the correct answers after Wednesday? Now I wanna know how much of my answers are correct! |
|
|
| fmk438j |
I haven't put min in yet, but i will very soon.
I must admit I had to 'double-check' 10 out of the 25 questions. And still will have to guess a couple. |

i know that i spent several hours combing through my rolling stones references--from the obvious to the obscure---looking for level I as well as the more challenging level II questions. if ya'll are enjoying yourselves, its time well spent on the creating as well as on the participating end of things. as far as participating more important than winning? LOL. i would imagine that comes from each individual P.O.V.  i'll tell ya this, tho, i wish i could be vying for that second place photo, myself. and you're welcome. me and the guys have enjoyed putting this thing together. |

with over 1,000 u.s. dollars in prizes to give away, i'm going to have to remain "clueless". i looked through several resources to find these questions. personally, i am no expert. i had to confer with the guys on the level of difficulty because i have focused on the "music" and not the "mayhem". its an open book test. just go for it. you have nothing to loose. |
