The great PF quiz #1

Post by drafsack »

Things have been a bit quiet on the forum lately so I thought I would brighten it up by posting a Pink Floyd trivia quiz. On this site there are some extreme Floyd heads who seem to know everything about Pink Floyd, some even stated that they hated knowing every thing. So here is every ones chance to find out who is king or queen Floyd head.

For the next couple of weeks I will post around 20 Pink Floyd related trivia questions. The winner each week will win a roio of their choice from my getting bigger by the week trade list. If anyone gets them all right I will send them a complete set of Syd Barrett's "Have You Got It Yet" which is now a massive 14 disc collection.

All you have to do is pm or email your answers to me by Tuesday 18th March. Shortly after that I will post the answers to quiz #1 and the winner and post quiz #2.

Best of luck.

we did an experiment in chemistry where my teacher held up a prism to the light, and it looked nothing like dsotm. you obviously didnt see the colors until they appeared on the wall. the colors were different lengths and all, so the dsotm cover is very incorrect

Gee.... you'd think you could have made up some original questions
instead of copying them all from the 1994 tour program.

Responding to the DSOTM cover, the scientific relevance isnt very important to the covers hidden meaning. As all real Floyd fans know, DSOTM and the Wizard of Oz sync is very famous. The film they used for Wizard of Oz was called prism film, that was how they were able to make the color in the transition point of the movie. I dont know they scientific or enginering information. But i have read about that on a Wizard of Oz book thingy.
