So far I have 82's non-entry and a half dozen smart ass messages about Hootie and the Blowfish and Parachute Club.

In other words, this game is anyone's to win!

today is July 9th (even in Kitsilano) and no results
My answers (all 4 of them) were pretty abysmal
I am not a expert in this field obviously
But thanks to Zill for putting this together

I gave it a casual listen, and was sure of 10, and was 50/50 on one or two others. Not great for someone who heard this stuff non-stop for years, hence my non-entry.

BTW: The minute I heard one of the snippets, I immediately envisioned the guy in the wife-beater...weird what you remember.

you should send in an entry; you would probably win the grand prize (8 X 10 glossy of Zill in a speedo[;)])
