1. Usually, I do terribly with these types of games. On this one, I scored 80%, which is measly but still better than I usually do!😀

   • Good score! We’ll see how everyone else shakes out.

     • Weirdly, I couldn’t find Ozzy Osbourne, even though I usually don’t have a problem recognizing him! I played on my smartphone, which perhaps wasn’t that smart to begin with. There were also a few names I simply didn’t know.

       • He’s a bit older in that photo I think – too old for classic Black Sabbath, too young for reality TV star.

         • I’m still in disbelief Ozzy ever became part of this reality TV nonsense.

         • I’m sure more people have seen him on TV than have heard him on the radio.

2. I got 84%, they could have used the band XYZ for X. Merry Christmas!

   • Congratulations! It’s all individuals I think – there are a few bands starting with X (X and XTC are other semi-obscure options), but I can think of many solo people.

     • XTC ‘semi-obscure’? Not in my universe!

       • I think if you asked people on the street they’d struggle.

         • That’s OK. I never talk to people in the street.

3. Got it, 25/25. I didn’t find this one particularly tough but I decided not to hyperventilate over it but take it slowly and first nail the ones that I absolutely positively knew. After some winnowing out, I was left with Joe Elliott and Dan Reynolds, two guys I wouldn’t recognize if I fell over them in the street. But a coin toss later and I got ’em both.

   • I knew Joe Elliott was Def Leppard so that gave me some clues to his look. I got Bryan Adams and Jon Bon Jovi mixed up.

     • I was pretty sure on Bon Jovi. Truthfully I know so little about Def Leppard I don’t even know Elliott.

4. SCORE
   25/25
   TIMER
   03:34 woohoo… finally a perfect score. Dan Reynolds I guessed and got lucky

   • Yes, I had no idea who Dan Reynolds was. I googled and he’s Imagine Dragons, who I don’t really know,

     • I did a process of elimination…it worked…Now I know.

5. 25/25 for me with 4:34 on the timer. Finally one I can do.

   • Great work!

6. 19/25. Didn’t know all the names.

   • There were a couple I didn’t know. Looks like quiz participants don’t really know Imagine Dragons.

7. 24 out of 25! My finger slipped and I clicked Anthony Kiedis for someone else (no really, :)) I did all the ones I knew and then did process of elimination – Dan Reynolds and Lars Ulrich were all left and went with my gut. Great holiday quiz!

   • Good score and happy holidays!

8. Same story as Jim S, except I picked heads and it came up tails.
   24/25.

   • Sounds like we need a Def Dragons education week.

9. That quiz called me mediocre!

   • Cheeky.

10. Tied again! Was down to 3 ladies, guessed incorrectly on the first, correctly on the last 2
    2 outta 3 aint bad!

    • I found the ladies a bit easier actually – partly because there were less, and I could just get Suzi Quatro with elimination.

11. First time I fired it up, it wouldn’t let me click on the pictures. I refreshed and then it worked. So if it happens to anyone else, you’re not alone!
    I got 23/25, but I really think I got 24 because I don’t think I clicked that second one wrong – I’ll admit to the first one, but not the second! 😉

    • 23 and 24 are both good efforts.

12. 25/25 it was 50/50 with Dan Reynolds and Van Zant but the coin I flipped for it fell in my favour

    • Another perfect week!

      • Keen to end the year with a bang 🙂

13. 24/25 I got Robert Plant’s flowing gold curls crossed with Roger Daltrey’s flowing gold curls.

    • Good effort!

14. 24/25 also!! Happy New Year!

    • Strong effort!

15. Just back from my Christmas trip to visit my wife’s family and several friends I haven’t seen in a year, and I’m happy to return with a perfect score in this week’s quiz. Only one was a guess so it was easy to use the process of elimination. Much easier for me than last week’s quiz. Seems like I’m not the only one who feels that way.

    • Perfect score! Happy new year.
