Download or read book Let The Music Play New Notes For Trivia written by Rudolph Schilli and published by BookLocker.com. This book was released on 2022-04-10 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes a new and exciting variant of trivia games. Rather than just having a mundane question and answer session, this book will introduce you to multi-dimensional "techno-trivia". This technique uses your smart phone, music and blue tooth technology to give musical clues that may help the audience to achieve the correct trivia answer in a more exciting way. This approach can help both the novice and more experienced, and often brilliant, trivia aficionado. Using this system, the question is asked and while everyone contemplates the answer, a song is played. The song's title, the song's artist and even the song's lyrics can be clues leading to the answer. If you don't immediately know the answer, this analysis of the song can help. This produces a multichannel approach that is more complex and entertaining than the commonplace and more ordinary contest. This "techno-trivia" can be played by large groups, small groups, and even individuals. It is a more perfect game that can be played anytime, for example: during a beach trip paralyzed by rain, dinner parties with your friends, or during any future 'lock-down' of society!

Download or read book The Association Cherish written by Malcolm C. Searles and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2018-05-08 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The very first full biography of The Association, one of the most successful bands to come out of the mid-1960s US folk-rock boom, with some of the most distinctive harmony sounds of the era, but one that is largely overlooked today. The group achieved two US Billboard Number One hits, a number of further Top 20 places, along with a run of successful best-selling LPs. In addition, whilst often credited as being one of the hardest working bands of the era, they are also honoured as having the second-most played song on US radio history during the 20th century! This extensive biography looks at the early foundations of the line-up, from the various group member’s struggles in an early 1960s Los Angeles, touring the folk clubs and coffee houses, through to their 1965 breakthrough and their first recording contract. Then, follow the band through the heady days of a psychedelic 1960s America, and into the confusion of the 1970’s where tragedy, disappointment and disarray left the band on the edge of breakup. The careers of each of the band members are discussed at length as they came, left and re-joined, most notably during the 1980s reunion tour, with full access to the recollections from principle members Jules Alexander, Terry Kirkman and Jim Yester. Finally, we bring the story fully up to date, with the band celebrating their 50th Anniversary and still out on the road, playing to packed venues across the country. Cherish IS indeed the word

Download or read book The Stone Roses written by Simon Spence and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2013-04-02 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Stone Roses captures the magic—and chaos—behind the UK band's rise, fall, and recent resurrection. The iconic Brit pop band The Stone Roses became an overnight sensation when their 1989 eponymous album went double platinum. It was a recording that is still often listed as one of the best albums ever made. Its chiming guitar riffs, anthemic melodies, and Smiths-like pop sensibility elevated The Stone Roses to a cult-like status in the UK and put them on the map in the U.S. But theirs is a story of unfulfilled success: their star imploded as their sophomore effort took years to complete and the band broke up acrimoniously in 1996. Sixteen years later, they reunited and have been playing sold out gigs, thrilling fans around the globe, and working on new material. In 2013, they nabbed the coveted headline spot at the Coachella Festival. With one hundred interviews of key figures, forty rare photographs, and exclusive insider material including how they created their music, The Stone Roses charts the band's rise from the backwaters of Manchester to becoming the stars of the "Madchester" scene to their successful comeback years later. Going beyond the myths to depict a band that defined Brit pop, Simon Spence illustrates their incandescent talent and jaw-dropping success while contextualizing them in the 90s music scene. This is the definitive story of The Stone Roses.
