I've been a member of that website for over 8 years, and have written my share of quizzes - though none on prog, at least so far. One of my friends, however, has written an excellent quiz on Steven Wilson, whose fan he is: https://www.funtrivia.com/trivia-quiz/Music/No-Man-Is-an-Island-404872.html

Anyway, if any of you is interested in writing quizzes on prog, you can register and write one, or as many as you like. I love that site, and spend most of my Internet time there. The guy who wrote the Genesis quiz is still an active member, and will be happy to know he's being mentioned on this forum.

The Steven Wilson quiz is a real toughie! I only know one answer (Question 3) out of the ten, so No Man can do worse than I did. Tongue

I got 15 out of 20. I guessed on a few I think. On one I was going to say Neal Morse but he hasn't been in the band in such a long time I figured that wasn't the answer. Oh well.

I score 12 out of the 20. Hard to know prog metal related questions, since I'm not into it, so I'm not familiar with the genre.

Beware of Question 8 though, as this quiz was posted before YES released The Quest album in 2021. Wink


13/20, only knew 7 so my calculated guesses were quite good!!

16~Total brain fart...LOL

12, but I'm a bit hampered by the fact that I don't listen to US bands except Spock's Beard much.
Every single guess was wrong!

 I got 13 right with a few lucky guesses. I would have had 14 but I was a dummy & clicked on the wrong box for one I knew.

Scored 12 out of 15 on this quiz. Not as easy as I first thought. Confused


15/15


15/15 for me too. Thought this was pretty easy, and I’m not the biggest Genesis fan….

14 out of 15 on the Genesis quiz. I guessed "that's all" when the correct answer was "mama."

10 bands and 10 quizzes with 10 questions in each quiz.... 

Camel Madness Trivia Quiz. Will the answers be at your Fingertips or will you get the hump?


Emerson, Lake & Palmer Quiz. for Experts. Will you be a Lucky Man with top marks or will it be a case of C'est La Vie?


Genesis Trivia Quiz. Seconds Out for the second Genesis quiz.


Jethro Tull Quiz. Are you up-to-date with Jethro Tull or are you Living in the Past?


King Crimson - Prog-Rock Geniuses Quiz. Will you be a Crimson King or a lowly pawn?


Marillion Trivia Quiz. Don't Be Hard On Yourself if you don't do well in this quiz.


This Is The Moody Blues Trivia Quiz. It'd be Lovely To See You do well with these ten Questions.


Pink Floyd Quiz for Experts. I have High Hopes that Pink Floyd fans will ace this quiz.


Porcupine Tree Trivia Quiz. Time Flies when you're having fun and there's no fear of a blank scoresheet on this quiz.


The YES Progressive Rock Quiz. This should be relatively easy for YES fans, but Yours is No Disgrace if you don't get top marks.

Perfect score for Yes although Flash was really more of a Peter Banks project with Tony Kaye only being a guest member (or at least temporary- Tony told me this himself).

My scores on the ten quizzes above:-

Camel :- Only 3 out of 10 Ouch - which leaves me Breathless! 
ELP:-  7 out of 10
Genesis:- 9 out of 10 - a ridiculously easy quiz for Genesis fans. Big smile
Jethro Tull:- Only 3 out of 10 again, although it was really tough. That's my excuse anyway. Embarrassed
King Crimson:- 8 out of 10
Marillion:- 6 out of 10 - not so easy for me. Wink
The Moody Blues:- 9 out of 10 - very very easy for Moody Blues fans, apart from Question 10.
Pink Floyd:- 7 out of 10
Porcupine Tree:- Only 4 out of 10 with three lucky guesses. Cry
YES:- 8 out of 10.

I should bloody well hope so, too.

Only 8/10 on Camel.
I must now go and commit ritual suicide in shame.

That's still much better than my measly 3/10 for the same quiz.
