@Ace12345 I really wanted to see that but didn’t get round to it. If it tours anywhere near me or goes back to the West End, think I might have to go.

I have tickets to see Six in November and I’m keeping everything crossed that it still goes ahead!

Ooh nice i like that 1, though i primarily find musicals via youtube animations (some are amazing though). Katherine Howard’s song makes me feel so bad for her but Anne of Cleves kinda steals the show a bit for me :joy: (I’ve made my friends listen to soooo many musicals so i could talk about them with them)

I love the songs from it! Am also kind of fascinated by Henry the Eighth and everything around his wives so it should be fun :blush:

Definitely. It’s actually not bad for historical accuracy either. I mean obviously it glances over a lot of details (especially with Anne Boleyn) but overall it’s surprisingly accurate (1 of the friends I made listen to it is a historian)

My attempt at answers
  1. KISS but only know (or semi guessing :thinking:) because you mentioned one of them in Shag, Marry, Avoid and a google then said KISS :joy: (I think :crossed_fingers:t2: - slightly thrown as I thought Gene Simmons was original member)
  2. I’m sorry, I can’t name anyone in Pink Floyd :see_no_evil:
  3. Rock legend… David Bowie or Meatloaf?
  4. Um… don’t even know the era
  5. Don’t stand so close to me?
  6. Blondie?
  7. Will I Am?
  8. Switzerland I think
  9. Gary Glitter?
  10. Def Leppard - I know this one :laughing:

I am sure of one of my answers! :rofl:

@Peitho Gene Simmons is an original member! :wink:

So either I have the wrong band or hopefully just didn’t know he changed his name! :rofl:

Hopefully the first - that gives me at least 2 points then! :crossed_fingers:t2:
