Tried to catch up on this thread. Probably shouldnt have bothered.

Worst pub quiz team name ever, Quarkles. 

Although...is it?

Remember that MTV 120 Minutes documentary / Meeting People Is Easy interview with Thom when they second guessed a new song title and he said it didn't have one but he was thinking about calling it:

'Your home may be at risk if you don't keep up payments with your mortgage'

Or something.

Not sure. There could be some names out there that if you knew them it would cause your toes to curl upwards. I know my favourite pub team quiz name though. It was called 'Ladywood's burning'. The pub quiz was taking place in Ladywood and there was a huge fire going on in an industrial unit nearby. When asked the name of our team someone suggested it, and it fitted the bill perfectly, I thought.

When I was a student there was a regular pub quiz in one of the bars, always hosted by a lovely young lady who used to run the bars.  Classic quiz approach where papers were marked by other tables at the end of the round, after which she would call out team names and you would respond with your score.

Popular team names for her to call out (followed by the response of a number) were such beauties as "the number of men I'm taking home tonight", "the number of golf balls I can fit in my mouth" etc etc

Oh how she loved us

I remember the first ever pub quiz that I went to. I was initially very impressed with the team as all of them had completed degrees in this that and the other. I hadn't done a degree and knew full well that my brain was empty of any knowledge, which was going to make me a bit of a spare part, but it didn't matter to me because I'd kind of be concentrating on drinking. Anyway, to cut a long story short we came nowhere in the quiz, and even had the indignity of being below the team from Perry Bar Buses in the final ratings.

Everyone would bicker over that one (you dry fecker).

'A Punchup at a Pub Quiz'

Heh!

 

What's the answer then, @Chawk?

There There?

Yep, There There was the one I had in mind. Phil makes that weird high pitch noise whilst Ed goes 'Don't reach out'. Although other acceptable answers are 2+2=5, I Will, and Go to Sleep, I think.

2 dates in Manchester is pretty awful for UK fans , especially as it's midweek and my friends are teachers.  

was just three London dates this year, although i don't understand why they're not at least just doing one date in each region instead of sticking to the one

Will definitely be trying for one of the Manchester dates, even if it is a bit close to Glastonbury. Imagine the setlist will be quite different. Glad it's a northern date this time, so I can save a few pennies!
