dcl 3,228 Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 (edited) This is a fun game. List six bands/artists that you have seen at a gig/concert and one lie, who you have not seen. Leave a reply: which is the lie? The correct guess takes up the next six bands Would I Lie To You? challenge. I'll start the challenge: 1. Grand Funk Railroad 2. Rolling Stones 3. Black Sabbath 4. Mahavishnu Orchestra 5. Elton John 6. Evelyn Glennie Good luck! Edited June 1, 2019 by dcl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itchitch 4,112 Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 My turn: 1. Joe Ely 2. The Fabulous Thunderbirds 3. Stevie Ray Vaughan 4. The Who 5. Van Halen 6. Vangelis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Community Admin AndrewJohn 8,722 Posted June 4, 2019 Community Admin Share Posted June 4, 2019 I'll end it, and pass the game to Itch..., I met Steve Winwood at a party in SF, once, but never saw him in concert.... The rest were real concerts over the years. REO in college like Van Halen. Nancy was from Heart. Aldean and Bentley were at two different Country Thunder events in Wisconsin (I may have posted photos here ! LoL). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian_at_HHH 2,624 Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 @itchitch I'm betting this is wrong, simply because it's so different from the rest of you list: Vangelis @dcl I'll have you know I can't get that "Would I lie to you" earworm out of my head, thanks to you! The only thing that makes it tolerable are the visions of Anne Lennox that accompany it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itchitch 4,112 Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 It would be natural to assume that I would see my Greek brother Vangelis ... but you are correct. Never saw him. ALL ONE CONCERT - Cotton Bowl 1989: Ely - The Fabulous Thunderbirds - SRV - The Who Van Halen - Red Rocks (David Lee Roth) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian_at_HHH 2,624 Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Wow! I figured that would be too easy to be true (caveat - I am decidedly a Vangelis fan , but I haven't seen him). All one concert, eh? That sounds like it was quite the show. Okay, here goes: Yes Alan Parsons Project Boston Genesis Ambrosia Tag, you're it, folks.

Okay, here's one more - that means there could be 2 that I'm lying about - you only need to get one lie right. Simon and Garfunkle 3 minutes ago, itchitch said: I have never seen nor do I think you have seen APP! BZZZT - you lose! Saw them a few years ago as an opener for someone. The main act in that show was just a bonus for me - my wife and I got tickets because of APP. Sadly it was after the passing of Eric Woolfson, but Alan Parson's voice was great.

dcl 3,228 Posted June 5, 2019 Author Share Posted June 5, 2019 (edited) As the list narrows, Ambrosia is my guess. @dcl I'll have you know I can't get that "Would I lie to you" earworm out of my head, thanks to you! The only thing that makes it tolerable are the visions of Anne Lennox that accompany it. Happy to oblige, Brian. ?

Brian_at_HHH 2,624 Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Nice try @dcl - and touche for the video, but I did actually Ambrosia at a casino venue several years ago. They were a group I didn't think I'd ever have the chance at seeing, so it was a lucky thing - that's the only luck I use at a casino since I find gambling totally boring. Getting close. Next?! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian_at_HHH 2,624 Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 (edited) Thought I'd finish this and let Ray take things with his list. It's actual Genesis that I've never seen. The closest I've been is having seen Mike and the Mechanics twice. And yes, I did get to see Simon and Garfunkel, who were great, but the venue sucked - it was a stadium, where every bit of sound bounced of the scoreboard giving a terrible echo. Edited June 6, 2019 by Brian_at_HHH Fixed typos from using by BT kbd. Sigh! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
