Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What city is CAKE from?

Answer: Sacramento

CAKE was formed in 1991.

2. How many members of CAKE are there?

Answer: Five

John McCrea-Acoustic Guitar/Vocals
Vince DiFiore-Trumpet/Keyboard/Percussion/
Xan McCurdy-Guitar
Paulo Baldi-Drums
Gabe Nelson-Bass

("Pressure Chief" lineup)

3. What is the name of CAKE's second album?

Answer: Fashion Nugget

Also their best in my opinion.

"Prolonging the Magic" was their third album, "Comfort Eagle" was their fourth album and "Pressure Chief" was their fifth. "Motorcade of Generosity" started it all.

4. Finish this song lyric from CAKE: "Can cut you from their loaded budgets like sharpened knives through _______"

Answer: Chicken McNuggets

This is from the appropriately named song "Nugget". One of their funniest lyrics. Principal songwriter John McCrea comes up with some really crazy stuff.

5. CAKE refuses to do cover songs.

Answer: False

Actually, they've done numerous covers including "I Will Survive" "Sad Songs and Waltzes" and "War Pigs".

6. Fill in the blank of this song lyric: "You have been cloudy, distant, dark, I'm thinking of ____"

Answer: Noah

From the song "Where Would I Be" from "Prolonging the Magic". This is probably my favorite CAKE song, and one of my favorite songs of all time.

Full line is "You have been cloudy, distant, dark...I'm thinking of Noah...and the ark"

7. John McCrea wrote "The Distance".

Answer: False

Actually, Greg Brown, CAKE's original lead guitarist, wrote this song, one of the few by CAKE not written by John McCrea.

8. Vince Difiore, CAKE's amazing trumpet player, has a Master's Degree in what field?

Answer: Psychology

I, for one, am glad he chose to stick to his music, he is an incredible musician. The trumpet solo on "Open Book" is amazing.

9. "Open Book" is found on CAKE's fourth album, "Comfort Eagle".

Answer: False

"Open Book" is the fourth song on "Fashion Nugget", their second album.

10. We'll end with another lyric. "Sheep go to heaven, ------- go to hell"

Answer: Goats

Off the aptly named song "Sheep Go to Heaven". This is a really fun song to see CAKE do live.
