They say there's no such thing as a stupid question, but we all know that's not true. :cool:

The rules:

1. Post a stupid or silly music related question - either one you have heard or one you created.

2. As always, TB rules apply. Take care to not offend any named individuals, groups, or gear brands.

3. Answers to posted questions are optional.

Here's one I heard this past weekend at a blues gig I played - a group of teenage girls asked the BL if we did Sweet Caroline (a 50+ year-old Neil Diamond song). Maybe it wasn't such a silly question because we managed to get through the song while the girls sang.

OK, let's hear em! :hyper:

at one gig a woman came up to me and guitarist and asked if we played a certain song.... she didn't know who the song was by, but said "it goes like this..... la da da daa da daaaa lum de daaa.... something about falling off a bridge".... then said it is a female singer (the singer in our band was a woman) and said "it's really popular on the radio......"
Guitarist & I just gave her a blank look..... but the woman insisted "But you MUST know it..... it is really popular"
she was very disappointed that we didn't know this particular song..... but then again she didn't really know either LOL!

Due to some quirky circumstances, “SC” is a big deal crowd sing-along everywhere.
