(7) 2000 - 2018
Other popular genres such as Rock / RnB / Pop / Disco / Motown / Club Classics etc will be included in the Decade Rounds (2), (5) and (7).
Scoring will be 2 points per picture in Round (1)
In all other rounds it will be 2 points for the group or artist and 2 points for the title.
For partially correct answers, you will score 1 point.
Teams can "PLAY THEIR JOKER" to double the points they score in their chosen round.
NB : This is a FUN Family Music Quiz, not "University Challenge". We confidently expect most teams will get well over half the questions right and hence predict a VERY close contest.

NEXT TIME
We will also be inviting suggestions for featured genres / groups / artists for the next quiz.
So if you are a huge rock or RnB fan, or you know everything there is to know about David Bowie or the songs of Boy George or Culture Club, then Saturday is the time to speak up!
