Rock Trivia: Round 9 Question 12- Heavy Metal
Wow, I just found a MAJOR wrong answer in the Rock Trivia deck with this one:
What instrument does Phil Lynott of Thin Lizzy play? (I’m going with the correct answer, not the one that’s listed as the answer!)

Here’s the link to the video of my TV appearance as phil. I met him, way back when “nightlife” came out, the first album with the classic twin guitar line up, and he was a real gent. Many years later, after I’d done the TV show, I met Eric Bell, the original lizzy guitarist, and he’d seen the show. He told me; “Phil will be looking down thinking, jeezus, i thought i was dead!” a memory i’ll always treasure. see me as phil :

Awesome, Kev!
You’ll have to let us know if you’re ever in NYC for a gig. I’m sure some of us NewmRadio Heads would come out to hear you play.

I sure will! last time i played NYC was at the sadly missed CBGBs with UK punk band The Gonads. On the same tour we played a scuzzy little club called “the pipeline in New Jersey – now THAT was an experience!

Yeah, I still can’t believe CBGB’s is gone. I haven’t been to The Pipeline, but I think it’s in Newark. I happen to live in New Jersey, but I don’t go to Newark unless I absolutely have to!

It’s a tragedy that its gone. I’m just so grateful we got to play there.
BTW Mo, yeah, i think you’re right, it guess the pipeline’s in Newark, forgive this ignorant brit for dissing the wrong ‘hood! P.S. i also remember a dude who stood by the road side called the “hi and bye ” man, anyone remember him?

No you were right- Newark is a city in New Jersey. Dis away, my friend!

I don’t know the “hi and bye” man, but I know a few “bi” guys. (ha ha!)
