in Trades, Passes and Bombs
since it seems the movie trivia pass has died off I thought I would start something new. This will work the same as the movie trivia with clues. If you put part of the song in the hint don't put the hook line to giv it away. We can tweak it as it goes but I though getting something new going might reinvigorate these passes.

    Cool idea. Maybe let the answer be a band, song, album, etc. Make the first clue start with an indication of which it is.

    I will kick this thing off since I was the winner in the Movie trivia pass. This is a song from my childhood. It is actually the first country song I remember. A line from the song goes..... "For a taste of your whiskey I'll give you some advice"

    Make sure the unwritten rule is that the winner has to know the song, and can't win by simply googling the lyric.  I'd hope the people here have the integrity to do so.... I already have the answer, but can't claim the prize.

    Kenny Rogers 'The Gambler'

    If this is right, very cool! That song is in my top twenty all time best songs (right up there with several by Marty Robbins). And if it is wrong, well, it is still a damn fine song, lol

    And no googling :) honest

    Winner winner chicken dinner... I will try and send you something this week Jay. Depends on work schedule. 

    I like Tony's idea of using songs, albums, or bands as the answer. Opens everything up.

    No googling, but you can go listen to some rock albums and look at the album covers and liner notes and refresh your memory :)

    Go! Listen!

    Jay unfortunately I don't think these threads are serving their purpose. I will get your winnings out tomorrow hopefully. This reminded me
