If you find yourself referencing song lyrics in general conversation, shouting at the telly during Never Mind The Buzzcocks or naming all the samples used by remixologists, then Band on the Wall’s ‘world famous’ music quiz could be the one for you. Your host, Elliott Eastwick, knows his TLC from his JLS, his James Brown from his James Blake, and his Coldplay from his Hot Chip, so see if you can match up to his teasers, which cater for a range of generations and tastes. Or just go along to earn the kudos of your contemporaries by entering with the best music-based pun you can muster as your team name. Everyone’s a winner, with prizes galore, heckles encouraged and that obscure 1980s one-hit-wonder restored to the forefront of your mind.
Sun 14 Aug, Band on the Wall, 25 Swan Street, Northern Quarter, Manchester, M4 5JZ. Tel: 0161 834 1786, 7.30pm, FREE, www.bandonthewall.org
