trivial pursuit with the folks.

We played youngins vs. old folks at the 21st birthday bash Saturday night. (I guess turning 21 isn't the triumph is used to be, at least not when you've spent a year or so in London already.) It was me, Marc, and my brother against my parents and their friend Ray. It was a long, long game of the 20th Anniversary Edition. And it went a little something like this:

Q: What heavy metal band set a world record by playing concerts on three continents in a single day?
Matt: Hmm, Motley Crue?
Kate: Guns and Roses.
Marc: Beats me.
A: Def Leppard.

Q: What punk pioneer insisted on having dwarfs dressed as the Snow White characters backstage during shows?
Mom: Punk what?
Dad: I, I don't know.
Ray: Maybe Motley Crue?
Dad: Oh, Motley Crue. We had them before!
Mom: Was there a Mr. Motley?
A: Iggy Pop
