My third question has lodged an answer in my brain that is driving me crazy! I’m shocked no one has thought of it yet, although technically it’s not really about winter.
SONG, PLEASE LEAVE MY HEAD!
Funny, Relph was the second Keith for me. My gut hadn’t even considered Moon, who probably should be the obvious Second Keith!
Hmmmm…..
Cold as Ice
BINGO! I trust this song will soon leave my head. My apologies, petesecrutz, if it next takes root in your brain.

After Davies and Manzarek comes… Ray Barreto. He’s the first guy I thought of, anyway.
What’s the rock ‘n roll snow day equivalent of daring to lick the flagpole?
I dare you to listen — REALLY listen, mind you — to “Eruption” by Van Halen.
Stay tuned for an important offshoot topic from one of your answers, something I can’t believe we haven’t discussed before!
1. Keith Moon
2. “Hazy Shade of Winter”
3. “Cold as Ice” (Heard this yesterday on a local news forecast as they cut to commercial)
4. Davy. Small. Challenging to hit.
5. Sister Ray.
6. Cover a super-psychedelic Beatles song. 99% chance you will end up looking stupid.
Perhaps the Mod was watching the same newscast (see #5).
801 covered Tomorrow Never Knows, and I think it’s weirder and better than The Beatles original. But you didn’t say 100%, so I guess they’re the 1%.
When you think of the name Keith and rock ‘n roll, who’s the second Keith who comes to mind?
The mononymic Keith, who is responsible for the bubblegum classic 98.6.
What’s the first winter-related song that comes to mind that you love?
The Stones song Winter.
What’s the first winter-related song that comes to mind that you can’t stand?
Frosty the Snowman
If you could throw a snowball at any member of The Monkees, who would it be?
Davy. His cuteness routine was so tiresome.
Who’s the third Ray who comes to mind when you think of the name Ray and rock ‘n roll?
Ubiquitous percussionist Ray Cooper.
What’s the rock ‘n roll snow day equivalent of daring to lick the flagpole?
I dare you to read Morrissey’s autobiography.
1. What is wrong with me? Keith Emerson was the first name to pop into my head. I don’t like prog and I hate ELP.
2. 2000 Miles by the Pretenders
3. Don’t know. If Christmas songs count then maybe that Waitress’ song.
4. Mickey
5. Manzarek
6. Riding a motorcycle on stage.
