I'm always one for a bit more levity, so here's a cryptic clue game where the answer is a band.
Now this may not be that original but I did a search and couldn't find one similar. [I promise I did - apologies if it 's been done before or if there is a similar thread already going around]. I had a quick look at existing threads and the Progressive Rebus is very similar, except it uses images so it makes me think that it might be going around already. Anyway.... EXAMPLE 1 Q - Old Testament book of creation. A - Genesis [Lame example ,I know] EXAMPLE 2 Q - Burrowing mammal of similar appearance and proportions. A - Matching Mole.......[ better] So, the answerer has to come up with the next cryptic clue to keep it going. The more obscure and crypyic the better!! Here's another to get us underway. Q - Enormous creature of quiet and honourable disposition A - ?? Have fun. { if it's been done or already going around, we'll just give it the old K.O.D} |

There will probably be more than one band for which this description fits. But you probably mean Aphrodite's Child. Gigantic landmass in prehistorical times. (This one is not easy, I think). Edited by BaldFriede - July 26 2007 at 16:04 |
