View Full Version : O.L.D. ...a trivia test
dari
Feb 7th, 2002, 08:33 AM
well after not looking at this place for a month or 2, i was encouraged by many to come back and see what was happening here. after the wonderful and warm reception i got from my LD family for my birthday and my inevitable descent into madness and midlife crisis...i decided to take a look. and what the f**k do i see? is there even a category here that mentions bruce springsteen somewhere ???? if so , please let's find one shall we? is this now the site for everything but bruce? i mean cat problems????? come on. i love them too but let's get back to basics. i know i know. you think it's all been said and done. so if you're bored by answering the same damn things over and over then think up something new. or resort to drink as many have. but when you turn on this page and the first 10-15 subjects have nothing t all to do with bruce, i say it's time to revolt! overthrow the boredom and have a contest. the twist on this one is this.......
instead of the trivia test being about bruce....it is about O.L.D. that's original livedaily to folks out there in tv land. and the prize is a trivia test tee shirt or sweat that i found when cleaning my garage. i used to sell them at "she's the one" in venice in the 70's and 80's and therefore they unfortunately come only in the sizes i have left. but as i always say..hell ..IT'S FREE! and except for deadly disease i am always in favor of things that you get for free....
since i have more than one there will be 3 winners. those who score highest on this very hard test all about those who made this place what it is today and who are hopefully still out there. otherwise who the hell's gonna win this damned thing. so guess if you don't know. all you can be is wrong..right? and you may know more than you think. and music traveler says that this is her favorite tee shirt and actully flew down to la cause she wanted another one (she got one of the originals back in the 80's)..
so here goes. post your answers here and we will see if we can come up with a winner or 3....
1. besides richard...what board member was the very first to sign on here? (hint: try looking at the month and year under her...er..i mean their name)
2. name the original moderator of this board
3. who offered me her frequent flyer miles to be able to get to the shows in minneapolis?
4. name the 2 very first "non-human" members of this board.....
5. and then tell me what species they belonged to.
6. who was the very first board member thrown off of here?...
7. and what was her original board name and what did she change it to?
8. what was the very first airport that doc got lost in? (well the first we knew about anyway...he could have been doing this for years!)
9. what dish is pj most famous for?
10. who is the president of the WWA?
11. who was the only known board member to get thrown out of a bruce concert and what city did that happen in?
12. what was the actual outcome of the "do we pick up bruce's dirty sox?" contest? yes or no? (hey this is a gift...you have 50/50 chance of getting it right!)
13. who was the "queen of the lake"?( and where the hell is she?)
14. where (city) was the first ever LD pre-party held and what was the room named and who organized it? ( a 3-parter)
15. who was better known as "tool boy"?
16. who collected key chains? ( and where the hell is he?)
17. who was the first board member to introduce pictures to this otherwise dready place?
18. who loves ya baby? (had to throw that one in for those who read this and are totally mystified)
in case of a tie....yea right.....the tie breaker will go to the one who can tell me who my board sisters are and which ones are twins.

"Who got kicked out?"
This was that guy from England wasn't it?? Or somewhere across the big pond. Oh, what is his name?? Starts with an L I think. Was it the Albany show? I think he came back for some of the NY shows.
Just goes to show how much work I slacked off back in the early days... well all through the tour I guess!! and all those nights at the Lake!!

Feb 7th, 2002, 10:21 AM
Being an original member of the board (hey, I was at Candy's Room and signed the t-shirt lsg threw on stage!), I have to go with Growing Young's answers (and I knew them myself, but am just too lazy to copy them). However, there should be no question that Bruce's socks can be thrown on the floor (and if they are next to the tighty whities, all the better!!!). And as for the guy who got thrown out of a show, I agree that it was a british guy thrown out of the Albany show, but his name escapes me at the moment.
Hey, I also knew the tie-breaker question (and that lsg is the "baby" sister).

I don't know any of the answers, but I do remember buying a trivia quiz t-shirt at She's the One. You were going to re-issue but I guess that never happened. Maybe you could publish the trivia quiz from the shirt it will probably be pretty funny to see again.
Another question would be who is the only LD/GL/NJO poster ever to actually meet Waiting in Parsippany.
That would be of course Dari

I don't know most of these, but I think the consensus was "yes" with regard to the dirty socks. Except for Naughty Sherry, who got banned before she shared her secret for getting men to pick up and untangle their own socks.
I must have missed the story of how Tony got thrown out of a Bruce concert... what happened?!
bossmom
Feb 7th, 2002, 12:25 PM
Great to see a post from you again!!!!
Well, since there are already so many posts with answers, I'll skip that but here's one?
Which sister was locked in the closet for the majority (I think) of the tour?????????
LJK
Feb 7th, 2002, 12:55 PM
Technically Tony was thrown out twice, both times for self-upgrading.
1. Jimmy The Saint joined on 8-4-99, but it sounds as if you are looking for a female...so Robinia on 8-13-99
2. 1CrazyLady, and that wasn't just a name.
3. Someone who owns a kitty, and thinks that in the absence of a tour there is nothing wrong with talking about a kitty, because after all, she has to listen to everyone talk about their kids.
4. First was Lucky, then Rosie, who is the biggest fan of Lucky in the world. They were born at the Mall of America in Bloomington, MN. They don't post much anymore.
5. Lucky is a bull and Rosie is a cow. I mean that in the nicest possible way.
6. I think it was NaughtySherry, although for some reason I thought she was allowed back and chose to withdraw on her own. I wasn't around much then as I was employed.
7. Sherry Darlin was the original name.
8. I thought he was sent to Denver as part of an FBI operation.
9. Lasagne, although I believe she also makes pancakes and bacon.
10. Please forgive me if I am wrong, but I believe it's Hummer.
11. Tony from Cambridge, UK, and he was asked politely to leave a show in Albany.
12. I know I wasn't around for this, but I'm assuming the answer is that we would worship Bruce's dirty socks, and therefore we would pick them up.
13. Alleylady
14. Los Angeles, Candy's Room, Gizzy.
15. Nebraska Fan
16. Flap, who, when he first started posting, I assumed was a woman. Sorry.
17. GeeBoss
18. Kojak, as discussed by Bruce during the River tour when he explained he had to leave the stage to go home to watch Kojak.
Bonus--Well, you have many sisters, but I think you're looking for LSG, Toots and Patter. I thought you were twins with Patter, but at one point weren't you triplets with Toots and Patter? I might be remembering that wrong. But I know LSG is the baby sis.

And you people were wondering why there was never a Beatles reunion......And that's just the downstairs closet...there's no telling who's locked up in the one upstairs. Come to think of it, we haven't had a new Bruce release in how long?

hey dari,
nice comeback thread! :) I just thought I'd play along because Toots says the thread is in danger of being towed, no way I'll know all of these answers. I thought it was cute that the name of your contest is O.L.D.; is that really weighing heavy on your mind? Remember, all of us are only as old as we feel, and I feel 16.
BTW, is the Music Traveler still using your couch? Please tell her to get her butt home; I'm filling up her inbox. LOL
1. besides richard...what board member was the very first to sign on here? (hint: try looking at the month and year under her...er..i mean their name) Dari, I'm guessing here.
2. name the original moderator of this board 1CrazyLady
3. who offered me her frequent flyer miles to be able to get to the shows in minneapolis? I don't remember this but would guess LJK (her post gives some strong clues). Hey, I just figured out I don't remember it because I wasn't even lurking at the time of the Mnpls show.
4. name the 2 very first "non-human" members of this board..... I know this one and remember all the posts with the pictures of them and their origin, Lucky and Rosie.
5. and then tell me what species they belonged to. bovines
6. who was the very first board member thrown off of here?... Naughty Sherry
7. and what was her original board name and what did she change it to? original name was Sherry Darling and she changed it to Naughty Sherry. I also know that her original name was not Sherry Darlin (I have exchanged emails with Sherry Darlin and she is much too nice to be confused with Sherry Darling).
8. what was the very first airport that doc got lost in? (well the first we knew about anyway...he could have been doing this for years!) Denver
9. what dish is pj most famous for? lasagna
10. who is the president of the WWA? Robinia
11. who was the only known board member to get thrown out of a bruce concert and what city did that happen in? I didn't know this one and don't remember reading about it.
12. what was the actual outcome of the "do we pick up bruce's dirty sox?" contest? yes or no? (hey this is a gift...you have 50/50 chance of getting it right!) The way I remember it, was the final outcome was a yes (and it seems like Bustedsister had a great post on that contest thread, but I can't remember the exact contents).
13. who was the "queen of the lake"?( and where the hell is she?) don't know, don't know.
14. where (city) was the first ever LD pre-party held and what was the room named and who organized it? ( a 3-parter) don't know, don't know, don't know.
15. who was better known as "tool boy"? don't know
16. who collected key chains? ( and where the hell is he?) don't know
17. who was the first board member to introduce pictures to this otherwise dready place? GEEBOSS (the king of pictures)
18. who loves ya baby? (had to throw that one in for those who read this and are totally mystified) Telly Savalas (first thing I thought of).
board sisters are toots and patter and LSG; I would guess the twins are patter and LSg, but cant' remember for sure.
BTW, I thought Bronx Darren's answers were the funniest.
Hope you'll stay this time. :)

Ok, so since my sis decided to come out of hiding I guess I will too just so I can clarify something.
Naughy Sherry was originally Sherry Darling and I am Sherry Darlin. We're two entirely different people and I "encouraged" her to change her name after she appeared on the board and started using colorful language that she has since become famous for. I'll still here, although I remain quiet most of the time. Ok, now I feel so much better. :rolleyes:

Feb 7th, 2002, 09:32 PM
When I first started reading all the questions and remembering back when, it brought back the feelings from the start of the tour, all the excitement, anticipation, looking for tickets,...what a great time... we need a TOUR!!
SRFMOM, I think sugarpie was one of the ones who went to AZ
remember when the LA gang went to Texas and LSG's hat got worn onstage!!!!

Uh, what was the question?
From now on, I will mention Bruce in every post I make on every Live Daily forum no matter what.
For the record, I called the "other" Sherry Darlin (g) the "naughty Sherry" after a cat fight of sorts broke out between the two regarding a thread in which some comments were made that the "nice" Sherry didn't want people to think that she made.
It was a rather hilarious thread as I recall, and out of it, "Naughty Sherry" was born.
Now, for ten bonus points: I had a thread removed because I was recounting a strange dream I had about the Merv Griffin show. Bruce was among the people in the dream. In the thread I referred to someone's armpit hair, and for that the thread was removed. Who's armpit hair was it?

One other thing about "Tony from Cambridge UK"--he got thrown out of the Albany show twice. Was given "lodging" for the night, too (by the Albany PD). Awfully nice of them, don't 'cha think?
Anybody heard from Tony lately?

first of all let me say that it was worth coming back to once again have bronx darren have me falling off my chair and laughing out loud. you never fail to do this bd...please don't stop!
i am amazed that so many here remember most of this stuff. i had no idea that i would be giving away so many trivia tees but it looks like we have more than 3 winners. i am really excited to see growing young on here and would have given her a shirt no matter what as she is small enough to fit into most of the ones that i have left.
here are all the correct answers and toots is right. no one got all of the "sisters" connections. i am surprised that sherry darlin did not post them as she is one of them and would know.
oh and i was the one who was coming back from phoenix in the middle of the night and hit the epicenter of the earthquake just as it hit around joshua tree. fortunately we were driving and screaming our heads off to the capital theater version of "thunder road" and didn't notice the earthquake at all until we pulled up to the only gas station for a pit stop and the cashier wouldn't let us in. when we asked why she ran around screaming "don't you people know we just had a 7.2 earthquake???". it was then we noticed that all of the things were off the shelves and broken. hell she should have gone to the show with us. it would have put her in a much better mood. didn't get to pee until LA. (thanks srfmom for remembering this)..
1. besides richard...what board member was the very first to sign on here? (hint: try looking at the month and year under her...er..i mean their name)
well since the rest of us didn't have access to exact dates, the answer to this was robinia. both she and jimmythesaint were the only ones that i can remember who signed on in august. most of us signed on in sept. and since she is the only one who stayed...she is the official "first" board member" here i guess.
2. name the original moderator of this board
one crazy lady and as LJK indicated she was crazy in more than a few ways. but very cool. especially when earing shorts in the middle of winter to see bruce.
3. who offered me her frequent flyer miles to be able to get to the shows in minneapolis? ljk and her kitty did...:+)
4. name the 2 very first "non-human" members of this board.....
soon to the subject of a "where are they now" expose on LD...the famous lucky and rosie. lucky was a moosician and rosie was his psycow groupie.
5. and then tell me what species they belonged to.
bovine..obviously
6. who was the very first board member thrown off of here?...
this was the easiest question i guess....naughty sherry
7. and what was her original board name and what did she change it to?
once again easy...changed from sherry darling (as someone pointed out not "Sherry Darlin"), because of the reasons stated above.
8. what was the very first airport that doc got lost in? (well the first we knew about anyway...he could have been doing this for years!) everyone got this one right....denver
9. what dish is pj most famous for?
i know she's famous for a lot of them now but when we all first met at the original BAT she told us she was making her world famous lasagna.now being that that is my favorite dish( my mom makes the best one ever) i was skeptical until i ate this. she deserves her rep for this thing and i never told my mom that she had competition in the lasagna making department.
10. who is the president of the WWA?
hummer...robinia is VP. more to follow on the west coast branch and why this became such a big thing on here.
11. who was the only known board member to get thrown out of a bruce concert and what city did that happen in?
i knew that muddy would remember this "tony from cambrigde.UK". the whole story is told hilariously by LSG who happened to be his seat mate for this fiasco and she was lucky not to get thrown out herself. why someone would fly all that way and pay all that money to try this and get thrown out twice...well it must have been the booze cause this guy was nuts!
12. what was the actual outcome of the "do we pick up bruce's dirty sox?" contest? yes or no? (hey this is a gift...you have 50/50 chance of getting it right!)
the answer was "yes". i remember who was in the "no" column and interestingly enough i have seen someone on here say that she is a "no" when her first email to me talked about how she couldn't believe anyone would say "no" to picking up after bruce. how quickly they turn!!!
13. who was the "queen of the lake"?( and where the hell is she?)
alleylady..who virtually lived there for a few years..
14. where (city) was the first ever LD pre-party held and what was the room named and who organized it? ( a 3-parter)
LA, candy's room (after much debate) and the julie mc coy of the LD board...gizzy
15. who was better known as "tool boy"?
nebraska fan..this was a lake thing i am told.
16. who collected key chains? ( and where the hell is he?)
the only brother in the family of sisters...flap
17. who was the first board member to introduce pictures to this otherwise dreary place?
and where the hell is he? the one, the only...geeboss. by the way he recently sent me a picture of himself and he has BROWN short hair with a goatee now. love him in any configuration even when he wakes me up at 6 am after a bruce show. (just don't do it again!)
18. who loves ya baby? (had to throw that one in for those who read this and are totally mystified)
well it meant telly savalas but it very well could be steve k. ljk wins a tee as she remembers the river tour comment bruce used to make about this.
now the sisters. there are more than most people remember. in fact there were 6 before we adopted "sisters" in every city.....and cousins and...well you get the idea.
1. pj...our big sis
2. patter and me (musical twins separated at birth)
3. toots (she of the infamous being locked in the closet) and sherry darlin...also twins
4. lone star girl...the baby
i have since thought of so may more of these little mind benders but will save them for another stroll down LD memory lane later.
so the winners are:
growing young
pj
and
LJK
though i have to say that i think "waiting....." long ago asked me about this shirt and i had promised to find one for him. so after i get the others theirs i will be glad to send you one of the ones that's left. hopefully you will like sleeveless blue cause i have a few of those and sleevless is not usually a girl's thing...
i am honored to be the only one who has met you though damned if i remember. sorry but that was long ago and i may be good but not that good.

i am really excited to see growing young on here and would have given her a shirt no matter what as she is small enough to fit into most of the ones that i have left
What an honor! And what a nice thing to say about me, Dari!!
Too bad the tshirt won't come in time for me to wear it to the Aaron Carter autograph signing that I'm taking my girls and a neice to this Sunday at Mall of America. LOL! Maybe the Post-Bruce Depression shirt would be appropriate attire for this function. I can't believe I'm really going to do this... but the girls are *so* excited for this and the concert Sun night (with Dream Street). Mr GY is taking them to that!
Man, I need a Bruce tour in a bad way!!!!!

well, brucegroupie- you're kinda correct. It was a "Patti" but it wasn't Bruce's Patti.

LJK......uuugh! I can't believe you thought I was her this entire time. Wow, you must have thought she was really turning over a new leaf with the tee shirt drive :D
Tooth Fairy, yes I am doing better (and I've slept for the last three nights - thank you, god!) and I so missed not being at Dari's birthday bash. I heard it was wonderful, I'm so sorry I missed it.
STK, yes, "cat fight" is very diplomatic way of describing the exchange of words between myself and NS. One of the few times (if only) time on this board that I lost my cool.
So, for those of you who are still confused...........I'm not her!!!!!

stk, thanks for setting me straight on the armpit hair. I remember reading those threads, in my lurking days, and always mistakenly thought y'all were talking about Patti Scialfa and couldn't figure that one out. Can't believe I've gone two years thinking you were talking about the wrong Patti.
nice to see you posting again, Sherry Darlin. :)

My ex sister-in-law and I were escorted out of the Los Angeles Sports Arena during one of the shows for The River Tour for moving down from our upper level seats to a nice standing spot on a stairwell leading down to the floor area, in the first section in the front on the right hand side of the stage. We were warned several times before this very mean security guard took us to the door.
The best part of the story........I snuck back in!!!

I don't have time at the moment to answer these (work is calling)but I must say Dari, it is always a pleasure to read the answers to the topics you post! This brought back so many great memories!

Thanks, dari! And thanks for bringing up the Kojak thing, I hadn't thought of that for a long time.
I gave Bruce a bag of Tootsie Pops before a show and told him it was for him to have while he watched Kojak that night. He asked what it was, and I told him it was a surprise. He felt it and started to laugh. *sigh*
