21 and 34, thought the questions were nicer today but still some are impossible like the one about some one hit wonders from 76

Round 1: one incorrect:

Detroit Spinners

which I think was Q4, so 33 points?

 

Round 2: three incorrect:

B.A. Robertson, that obscure mid-80s one with the brackets, Susan Fastbender

which I think were Q4, Q6 & Q8, so 13 points?

 

Look forward to PopMaster returning so I don't have to keep remembering question numbers as well as incorrect answers :D
