    Non-stop OTF Music quiz

    Delving into the endless realms of OTF's useless music knowledge, bring forth the OTF Music quiz!

    Post a music related question, then confirm when someone gets it right. One point for the first person to answer a question correctly. In the "spirit of the quiz", one shouldn't use the internet to discover answers. I'll start the ball rolling (and die of embarrassment if this is a nil thread):

    1. The legendary Chicago house DJ Ron Hardy had a signature tune he would play by an 80's British band. Who were the band and what was the song?

        Hmm, this is beginning to hurt.

        3. Simon Bates used the music from which film to play during "Our Tune"?

          Good idea. Unfortunately my musical knowledge is, by otf standards, pretty limited. But I'm sure someone will come along soon with an answer

            Oh, I give up. It's a bank holiday in the UK today, isn't it?

                Point received atlantic, I'm still hoping the thread will take off, so no championship title... yet.

                  Dave Mustaine...I know they're original bassist died, but I don't know his name. I once read that Les Claypool auditioned to join the band. Talk about your "what if?"s.

                    The bassist auditions are a really great part in Some Kind of Monster, the Metallica doc. It's pretty obvious why Trujillo got the gig.

                      The answer to 3 is Zefirelli's Romeo and Juliet. I can't remember who the compose was though.

                          Is asking questions open for anyone? If so, then:

                          4. What is the nationality of Lou Bega, of Mambo No. 5 fame?

                          Great thread, BTW.

                            Points go out to Andy C (I've no idea who the composer is either) and smallcaps.

                            So, anybody else got a question?

                            edit: ah, double thanks smallcaps!

                              Number 4 can't be an obvious answer, so I'm going to go with Dutch.

                                      My two cents: so far it's been free for all to post questions, and I suggest we keep it that way. You know, to prevent the thread from stopping on a difficult question.

                                      If you answered a question correctly, do feel encouraged to post a question, but not obliged.

                                        5. Which British duo was unceremoniously dropped by their American label, mere days after winning the inaugural Grammy for 'Best Electronic/Dance Album'?

                                                  Yes, Fussbudget. This happened to Basement Jaxx, so one point for you.

                                                  My final one of the evening:

                                                  6. Under what name do we know Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr.?
