I had to explain it about a hundred times...
- The guitarist for the Sex Pistols? (They had no idea.)
- A grungy guy who shot himself? (You'd think that grunge, repeated and emphasized, would have given it away. It didn't.)
- He liked to light his guitar on fire. (They got it.)
- He died behind the wheel of his Porsche. (Lost them on that one.)
- She sang with Big Brother and the Holding Company. (Not a clue.)
- From "The Day the Music Died" name one of the people who, well, died that day. (They didn't get it. Instead, they told me it was the guy who died behind the wheel of his Porsche. The 50s are a blur to these people.)
- Finally, a 19 year old who was burned at the stake. (Even when I threw in that she's a nickname at a diner, no reaction.) (French fries, if you didn't know it already.) (I should have asked about Noah's wife.)
