daslied Posted September 8, 2005 Report Posted September 8, 2005 Paul McCartney did that, but I have no idea what the horse was called. "Martha II", perhaps?
_Laurie_ Posted September 8, 2005 Report Posted September 8, 2005 do you wanna know the horse's name? or do you guys wanna google to find out?
_Laurie_ Posted September 8, 2005 Report Posted September 8, 2005 Ok Daslied...You're Up!...the horse's name was Drake's Drum... you guys are tooo smart...I cant google to think up questions, coz my puter messes up!
invisible_r Posted September 8, 2005 Report Posted September 8, 2005 the minute i find it, you post the answer!
daslied Posted September 8, 2005 Report Posted September 8, 2005 OK, this rather odd musician made his television debut in 1961 on a variety show (not the most famous one). Who was this person, and what was the show? Bonus if you name what "instrument" he played.
Tenacious_Peaches Posted September 8, 2005 Report Posted September 8, 2005 (edited) Stab in the dark...Tiny Tim - ukelele. The show - Ed Sullivan. or the cat from Badfinger playing the accordian??? Edited September 8, 2005 by Guest I didn't read the entire question because I got over-excited. Please forgive me and all of my sins. Amen.
_Laurie_ Posted September 9, 2005 Report Posted September 9, 2005 aww sorry rachel....i didnt think it would be googable...is that a word? googable... oh Peaches, good answer!....tiny tim i mean lol not badfingers cat...all though that's a good guess too!
daslied Posted September 9, 2005 Report Posted September 9, 2005 No. No. No. Awesome. Here's another hint - he was 20 at the time. And sometimes "odd" and "genius" can be confused.
Tenacious_Peaches Posted September 9, 2005 Report Posted September 9, 2005 Frank Zappa playing the spoons on the Kookla, Fran and Ollie show?
daslied Posted September 9, 2005 Report Posted September 9, 2005 Close enough. Frank Zappa, on Steve Allen, playing a bicycle. With the candlestick.
Tenacious_Peaches Posted September 9, 2005 Report Posted September 9, 2005 I thought it was Colonel Mustard in the library with the dagger.
miamisammy29 Posted September 9, 2005 Report Posted September 9, 2005 Close enough. Frank Zappa, on Steve Allen, playing a bicycle. With the candlestick. What song did he play?
daslied Posted September 9, 2005 Report Posted September 9, 2005 I believe he actually called it "Bicycle Concerto". Seriously.
_Laurie_ Posted September 9, 2005 Report Posted September 9, 2005 we need more trivia!.....Peachy, give us a good one!
_jr_ Posted September 10, 2005 Report Posted September 10, 2005 Here's one: Other than being one hit wonders, what do these two bands have in common: Paper Lace Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods
_Laurie_ Posted September 10, 2005 Report Posted September 10, 2005 They both competed for number one on the charts??
_Laurie_ Posted September 10, 2005 Report Posted September 10, 2005 both there songs were number one for one week also
_jr_ Posted September 10, 2005 Report Posted September 10, 2005 Yes, that may be true enough. But it's not what I'm looking for. You'll have to dig deeper. I'll tell you this: it has to do with songwriting

Brad_M Posted September 10, 2005 Report Posted September 10, 2005 both there songs were number one for one week also correction: "The Night Chicago Died" was #1 for one week but "Billy Don't Be A Hero" was #1 for two weeks.
_Laurie_ Posted September 10, 2005 Report Posted September 10, 2005 hmmmmf show off^ thanks for the info Brad
miamisammy29 Posted September 10, 2005 Report Posted September 10, 2005 I know this one: They both recorded "The Night Chicago Died". Bo Donaldson actually recorded it first. It was made into a hit by Paper Lace a year or two later.
