That sounds like something Boy George would do. But my guess is David Bowie.

Nope, it was rock. Sorta.
Score another one for Greg, as it was indeed Bowie.

Next question (and also one that may get me thrown off the thread): What singer once tried to commit suicide by drinking furniture polish.

I wouldn't throw you off Greg. And maybe it explains how come he ran into someone's house with his car this weekend.
It was Billy Joel.

Man, that was quick, Scott!
Yep, it was Mr. Piano Man. Your thread about Billy's car accident got me to thinking along the same lines.

Well this one may prove a little tougher.
What song was written at Woodstock (the original concert) while the performer was performing live on stage?

Yep, that's a toughie.
My first guess would be Richie Haven's "Freedom Suite" or whatever the heck that was called.

Close enough OM. It was Freedom by Richie Havens. You're up.

Another Woodstock question, then.
Which performer refused to be filmed for the event?

Correct. His reticence kept the recently formed CSN & Y out of the Woodstick film.
Yer up, HWW.

CSN are actually in the film, twice, IIRC. The filmmakers just filmed around Neil for the second set.
Who once told a future rock star, "The guitar's all very well, but you'll never make a living at it"?

Looks like it's clue time.
The quote sounds like it came from a parent -- and it did, sort of.

I'm sure my mother said something similar to me when I was young.
Anyway, I'll hazard a guess: John Lennon's Aunt Mimi?

You got it, OM. Lennon was raised by his aunt, who never approved of his career choice (and approved of Paul and George even less). Lennon reportedly had those words framed after the Beatles made it and presented them to her.

Wow. That was a killer question, HWW. I certainly didn't expect to get it.
Be back in a bit with a question.

I even tried to make it hard by asking who said it, instead of to whom it was said. I figured not many people were up on rock star relatives. (See how mean I am.) I should have known better than to underestimate you, OM.

OK. Next question:
Lemmy from Motorhead is famous for the quote, "We're the dirtiest rock 'n' roll band in the world. If we move next door to you, your lawn will die.*" Except he didn't come up with it himself. Name the act he stole it from.
(* - Probably not the exact quote. But you get the idea.)
