Try to build up a high break using song titles.

15 songs with 'Red' in the title (1 point each), alternating with 15 'Black' songs (7), followed by yellow (2), green (3), brown (4), blue (5), pink (6) and black (7).

Not just prog, I hasten to add. That would/might be impossible.

See if you can get a 147.

Bonus points (and my deep respect) are yours if you can make a 147 break entirely out of prog.

How do you play? Do you need 15 from red, then 15 blacks, and so on?

Try to think of songs with the words 'red' and 'black' in the title, alternating between the two:

Red, Black, Red, Black, Red, Black etc.

until you have 15 reds and 15 blacks, then do the same with the six colours (including a final black), and there you have it.
