Well, I dont know too much trivia, but hopefully some more educated Floyd fans can post some, but here's a question...
What song did a rowdy fan request Roger to play, which caused Roger finally lose his patience and spit on the fan during the Animals tour?

I belive it was Pigs on the Wing Part 1. Am I right? If not, I am not worthy of being admin on this site. O. K, I will think of one.

Question: For how many weeks was Dark Side of the Moon at the top of the U. K Charts?

Nope. Works every time. How many weeks was it at the TOP?

So many trick questions with the Floyd.

Corporal Clegg - July 5, 2006 06:56 PM (GMT)
DSOTM never topped the charts in the UK, it reached #3 i think
It spent 741 weeks in the charts over a number of years

Well done for solving my trick question Corporal Clegg. UM . . . , let me think.

Why was Nick Mason's drum technician required to play in the surrogate band for a couple of the Wall shows?

Wrong. In the book it says that the person from the crowd asked for Roger to play Careful . . . and that is why he spat at him. Not that Roger was actually playing it at the time. Read more carefully.

no I know thats what he requested, I know they wouldnt play that song on an Animals tour...I'm not sure what song they were playing...you could be right

and your question would be because Wille Wilson from the surrogate band collapsed a few hours before a show so Clive Brooks, the drum technician, had to step in.

What problem did Nick Griffiths face when trying to get the sound effect of the wall crashing down?

Khaz - February 27, 2007 04:39 PM (GMT)
The problem was that he was trying to record the sound effects from actualy buildings being destroyed but they don't make much noise.
