Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. We'll start off with this three-piece brother band who are mostly famous for their disco tunes in the '70s, particularly for the "Saturday Night Fever" soundtrack. Oh, let's make it short: it's the Bee Gees, of course. I will just ask you - what is the family name of these guys?

Answer: Gibb

Contrary to what most people believe, the name "Bee Gees" does NOT stand for "Brothers Gibb". In their early years, they performed in Australia supported by two other friends named Bill Goode and Bill Gates (no, not the Microsoft one). As their initials matched Barry Gibb's, Gates decided to call them "The BGs".

2. This American hard-rock band was founded by the Loeffler brothers in the mid nineties. They are named after a famous classic car model. Who are they?

Answer: Chevelle

Chevelle hit the mainstream scene with the release of their second album, "Wonder What's Next", in 2002. After another release, one of the brothers left the band, and was replaced by their brother in law. They still keep this lineup to this day.

Answer: Devo

They went through many lineup changes, but the most famous one consisted of Mark and Bob Mothersbaughs, Gerald and Bob Casale, and Alan Myers. "Whip It" is their most known song.

The band still performs today, though Bob Casale and Alan Myers have passed away.

Answer: Igor

Both of the brothers have since departed Sepultura. Max left in 1996, and went on to form Soulfly. Igor left in 2006. They have a side project together, called Cavalera Conspiracy.

5. Three of the following rock bands have or had a pair of siblings playing guitar and bass. Pick the odd one out.

Answer: Pantera

The Cranberries: Noel (guitar) and Mike Hogan (bass)
Radiohead: Jonny (guitar) and Colin Greenwood (bass)
Stone Temple Pilots: Dean (guitar) and Robert DeLeo (bass)
Pantera had the Abbott brothers, "Dimebag" Darrell in guitar and Vinnie Paul, who played drums.

6. Surely one of the most conflictive pair of siblings, the Gallaghers fronted which famous British rock band?

Answer: Oasis

It's hard to overlook Oasis, not only for their music, but also for the frequent quarreling between Noel and Liam, that ultimately led to the band's breakup.

Even though they had a really tense relationship, the Gallaghers were the only stable members of the band, as in, they were the only ones that remained in the band's lineup for its whole history.

7. The next band in our list is known for songs like "Love's A Game" and "Love Me Like You", and consists of two pairs of brothers and sisters: Michele Stodart, Romeo Stodart, Angela Gannon, and Sean Gannon. What is this band's name? Just do the maths, no tricks at all.

Answer: The Magic Numbers

The Magic Numbers have released five LPs to date, though they are mostly known for the first two, which include, among others, the songs mentioned in the question.

One of its members, Michele, has also recorded two albums on her own.

Answer: Greta Van Fleet

They named the band after a resident of their hometown (though she is actually called "Gretna", not "Greta"), who later gave them her blessing.

Prior to their first LP, they also released two EPs in 2017, "Black Smoke Rising", and "From The Fires".

9. The following bands had a pair of siblings in their lineups. Name the one in which neither of the siblings was the singer of the band.

Answer: AC/DC

AC/DC had Angus and Malcolm Young, both guitarists.
CCR: Fogerty brothers, with John being the lead singer.
Dire Straits: Knopfler brothers, with Mark being the lead singer.
The Black Crowes: Robinson brothers, with Chris being the lead singer.

Answer: Sylvers

They were a very successful group during the '70s. The family consisted of ten siblings: Olympia, Leon, Charmaine, James, Edmund, Ricky, Angie, Pat, Foster, and Christopher, who was the only one that didn't perform with the rest, due to his untimely death from hepatitis at only 18 years of age.
