The JOE Music Quiz: Week 14

Will Lavin

Welcome back music fiends

The JOE Music Quiz is back for its 14th week and there’s a lot going on so naturally I’m making sure there’s healthy helpings of music trivia for you to test your knowledge on.

The sequel to the insanely popular Mamma Mia! movie is out right now and to celebrate I felt we needed to pay homage to ABBA, the group who inspired the movie series. So how well do you know the Swedish supergroup? We’ll soon find out.

Dizzee Rascal’s Boy In Da Corner album turned 15-years-old this past week. The true British classic needs no introduction but I felt the need to make sure you understood the type of respect that needs to be put on its name. Classic album = classic quiz round.

Throwing in a few other rounds that touch upon front men and women in bands and government names of stars, you’ve got plenty to bet getting on with this week so strap up your boots and get answering!

Quiz categories this week are as follows:

ROUND ONE: REAL NAMES

ROUND TWO: FOLLOW THE LEADER

ROUND THREE: MAMMA MIA!

ROUND FOUR: BOY IN DA CORNER

ROUND FIVE: GENERAL KNOWLEDGE
