Even if you intentionally answer question after question wrong, it never tells you "perhaps you're too stupid for this site," though the words do become quite elementary. |

Saw this tour live. Nobody really knew who they were at the time. They played with another little known band, ACDC... |

Fun site, although I suspect that the alleged spelling nazi around here would have done reasonably well. Seems some folks have posted some high scores  Not that I'm pointing the figure at anyone in particular......  |
