As some of you may remember about this time last year I asked for some help with my work ‘pub quiz.’ Basically once a year I am asked to devise a quiz along the lines of a pub quiz for the office away day. Anyway, the time has come again, but this time I am very much ready to go. With this in mind I thought I would share the ‘Festival or Jestival’ round with you. Here is a list of bands and artists that my colleagues will have to guess if they have played (or are due to play) the End of the Road Festival, or if they are Jestival- I made them up.
I won’t post the other rounds, but you are most welcome to guess if the artist is Festival -or- Jestival. No cheating now!
Festival –or- Jestival?!
1. Shannon and the Clams

6. The ghost of the sabre tooth tiger
7. Electric Wurms
8. Filthy Boy

11. Bog Log III
12. I’m from Barcelona
13. Misty’s big adventure
14. Architecture in Helsinki
15. Lady Fuzz
16. Someone still loves you Boris Yeltsin
#13 did the theme tune to Dave Gorman’s comedy series.
And are well worth investigating further. Great band, if you enjoy a bit of whimsy in your music.
So right! I just gave this a listen and Misty’s hit the spot at once.
I think we’d better have one more from them at once.
15. Arrest me, officer!
Does Shannon and the Clams not float your boat?
Too salty.
‘Kin Hell!
I’ve been to EOTR 8 times and have tickets for this years event, and I only know one of those for sure.
I shall be back this year after a year off. Can’t wait.
Mega Bog: communal cacatorium for the cognoscenti.
(Via the Turdis)
I know of 9, 10 and 13
Thought all you Beatles nerds would have known of Ghost Of A Sabre Tooth Tiger!
Is @pawsforthought tricking us here? I think they might all be actual bands. The only ones I don’t recognise from somewhere are 4, 5 and 15. I’m pretty sure every other one is real (number 11 is a typo for Bob, right?), and those three could well be.
Absolutely right, KD! They are all ‘festival.’ Bog Log is a typo too, sorry about that.
Plenty of bog logs at festivals, what with all those veggie burgers.
Making a splash at Latitude this year.
Stank the place out last time.
Bob Log 111 saw him a couple of years ago with my son. After about 5 songs my son turned to me and said ‘Shall we go, I’ve heard all his song’
