At the current moment there are no plans for a 70's lyrics quiz #2, but I will
be posting another lyrics quiz on Jan 11 (or close to it).  This quiz will be 
rock music from the 50's through the 90's.

(just thought I'd throw this in here since someone asked)
 
                                            Thanks again for participating
