Real Names - Male Singers

Real Names - Male Singers

This quiz round features a list of 10 famous singers (Adam Ant, Freddie Mercury, etc), a list of their real names in a mixed order,  and a list of facts about the singers (eg. "Was born on an African island") also in a mixed order. The aim of the round is to match up the correct names and facts to the correct singers.

The facts here were chosen so that a lot are unlikely to be obvious to which singer they belong, but that it is obvious that there are a few singers on the list that they are very unlikely to belong to. This means that as well as testing people's knowledge on this subject, it will also test their powers of deduction as they try to to match each fact with the correct singer. For the real names of the singers, there should be a few which people know, but teams may have to rely on guesswork to complete the round.

While the information in this round could be used to make up standard question and answer rounds (where the quiz-master asks questions aloud and the teams write the answers on blank answer sheets) it is recommended that this is used in a quiz as a handout round as it is likely to keep people occupied and entertained for a reasonable length of time.

If you buy this handout round, we will give you access to pdf files you can download. Two of these will be for the main handout sheet - one as illustrated above, and one in a more plain format. The third sheet will contain the answers. You probably already have everything you need to access and use these rounds in your quiz, but you might want to check our requirements page to make sure.

Please note that this handout round also appears in Weekly Quiz 38. If you would prefer to purchase our pre-compiled full weekly quizzes, then click here, where you can find quizzes with a handout round, 2 rounds on general subjects, a specialist subject round, a connections round, an initial letter link round, and a stick or twist round, as well as professionally designed answer sheets and full instructions on how to run your quiz. If, however, you prefer to use your own format for your quizzes, then this handout round should help towards creating an entertaining and challenging quiz.
