Re: Quiz
I don't think Sea of Tranquility is about ships, sailing and the sea.

Re: Quiz
Yeah, Sea of Tranquility is not about the open sea. I think Gordon explained in Songbook that it was about nocturnal wildlife in the forests near his home. Maybe Triangle would have been a better choice.

Re: Quiz
Cool trivia quiz, Char. Got 8 out of 10 right. Must study harder.
Hi John, Followed that great "favorite line" thread over on your site.
I'm also an NJ Lighthead from way back but new to these Gord sites and actually trying to record a Gord cover CD right here in NJ. pm me when you get a chance.

Re: Quiz
Well I got the first one wrong, because I answered correctly. No way to let him know that he was wrong. Oh well.

Right you are Sir John - of course most of us got 10 out of 10 even if it pained us to give the answer they wanted. Classic overachiever behavior with just a touch of slacker thrown in. (I figured if you aced tests they'd go easy on the homework) old habits die hard.
Cheers,
William Wallace 
(from MD)

Re: Quiz
Got one wrong - the first one. Yeah, Sea of Tranquility has nothing to do with sailing - just read the lyric.....My pick was Ghosts of Cape Horn...
