Rock n Roll Trivia Challenge 2014: Micky Dolenz' Revenge!
4 questions at once, till the book runs out!
We reach the parts other combos cannot reach
We beach the beachheads other armies cannot beach
We speak the tongues other mouths cannot speak

I've got a copy of Bob Harris' quiz book which came out in the mid-80s, if you need some extra material. What makes it rather difficult is that some questions are repeated with contradictory answers. Either Bob failed the Old Grey Whistle Test or the proof reader had fallen asleep listening to him talk.

Who played chimes on the Willows' 1956 version of "Church Bells May Ring"?
(I can add the multiple choice on this one if no one gets it)
What rock band based its name on the member's gym teacher?
The Aussie band Midnight Oil had a hit in 1987 with "____ Are Burning"
points for creativity
Which two Monkees share the same birthday?

#2 is Lynyrd Skynyrd
I know the answer to #3 (duh), but I really can't think of a good clever answer. I'll leave it to someone else.

haha, balls!
Not Chuck Berry, this guy, though a "rock star" is considered pretty square. I'd say I like a song or two of his though.
