U2 Quiz | Parade.com

I got 24 out of 25 right on my first drive (guessed the wrong castle on the cover of TUF).

I guess I'm a U2 expert!

CRAP! I only missed 1 too. I got the first #1 single in the US wrong dammit.

Thanks that was fun

22/25.

Hey, at least it says I'm still number "One."

 

[digitize]

Missed 2 - I thought they were 'Rock's Hottest Ticket' on the RS cover, instead of Time, and I accidentally clicked Boston instead of NYC for their first US show.

I also totally guessed on the Bono supermodel one - but I guessed correctly.

 

[Acrobat51829]

24 out of 25. Couldn't remember the concert openers. Narrowed it down to two, then picked the wrong one.

 

[OrARoundabout]

Missed 1, didn't know "She's A Mystery To Me" was written for somebody

Almost forgot KOL opened for them...I'm planning on seeing them on the Today Show in July...

Has anybody seen them live? Are they any good?

25 out of 25

 

[Popmartijn]

25 out of 25

Same here!

 

[Sicy]

Easy test. But I missed the one about which castle was on the cover of UF?
And I didnt get the opening band question right either.

 

[theFly51]

damn missed the rock's hottest ticket question!

Got the same ones wrong the same way. Still pretty good I say

 

[An Cat Gav]

25/25, pretty easy

 

[Galeongirl]

25.. only question that troubled me a bit was the UF castle one, I wasn't sure.

This probably proves I have no life.

 

[last unicorn]

24/25 ... I knew them all very easily except the first US number 1 ... I'm always having trouble with this sort of question. At least I got it right with the second try.

 

[Vlaco]

25/25 piece of cake.

 

[Popmartijn]

BTW, in this week's Off The Record column on @U2 there's some more background info on creating the quiz. Apparently, their first version was way too difficult for even those who call themselves big fans. So they had to make it easier.

23/25

 

[rastacruz]

I did better than I would have thought. Wasn't ashamed to miss the Vouge question!

I missed the castle one, too. And forgot it was Christy Turlington w/B on the Vogue cover, not Helen Christensen.

That was a fun, easy-going quiz though.

These quizzes are usually pretty easy for crazy fans like us. I got 25, even though I had to guess on one of the questions.
