Hi everyone,
If you said Paul for #8 and it was counted wrong, you are correct. I had a lot of trouble putting this quiz together and somehow the answer got changed. Sorry for the confusion.
No problem, Gary. I’ve had similar problems putting together quizzes. The software seems quite buggy.
7 of 12; I thought I knew more… 🙁
9/12 The Beatles forever!!! Dizzying quiz, thank you very much for this pleasure!
You’re welcome
9/12 🙂 Great quiz! I was sure it was Paul in #8 🙂
You’re correct. It should have been Paul. I don’t know what happened.
Nine out of 12.
Only five, not good at all!
8 correct
6 out of 12
5/12 I was born in 1994 so I don’t really know about them
I got 9 right
