OK, we have a thread for what PCF is listening to. It's been fun, and there's some pretty good stuff mentioned in there -- mostly newer music.
So I'm going to hold a little contest tonight to see who really knows their traditional musicians.
We have a local blues restaurant/bar/nightly live music venue, our favorite music hangout. On their walls, they have stylized portraits of some very well known singer/songwriter/musicians, mostly (arguably) of the blues genre. At 10pm tonight, EDT, I'll put up a picture here of two rows of seven singers each. The challenge is to name all 14, or, failing anyone doing that, see who can name the most.
The winner will receive the rack of blue ceramic Mardi Gras Casino fifty-cent chips pictured below. (They're blue, see?)
Rules:
1. DO NOT POST ANY ANSWERS IN THIS THREAD! Send your answers to me on PCF by PM.
2. Submit your entry as names, one to a line, numbered from 1 to 14. Lines 1 to 7 correspond to the pictures in the top row, from left to right; lines 8 to 14 are the bottom row, from left to right.
3. All entries must be sent by 10:15 pm tonight EDT. Yes, it's a short window, but I want to minimize the chances of someone using image searches, etc. to come up with the answers.
4. PCF members only; must have a minimum of 100 PCF posts to be eligible.
5. One PM only, thus one entry per PCF member. If I receive more than one PM from you after 10 pm, you are disqualified. Tough noogies.
6. In the event of a tie in the number of correct answers, I will post one more portrait as soon as possible after 10:30. The winner will be the first entrant to send me a PM correctly naming that musician.
7. Anyone living within 25 miles of Sarasota is ineligible (I'm afraid this means you, @k9dr, because you've probably been there).
Sample entry:
---------------------------
1. John Lennon
2. Paul McCartney
....
13. George Harrison
14. Ringo Starr

Good luck all!
Go!
Go!
