BUSH QUIZ #1
I DID NOT Compile this Bush Quiz,the reason i'm telling
you this is because i've received a few emails telling me
that certain answers are wrong.A friend gave me this
quiz,I asked her about some of the answers possibly being
wrong and she said,"The Quiz came straight out of Circus
magazine",So if you feel any answers are wrong,Circus
Magazine must have made some errors.I'd like to add
another quiz,If you would like to contribute to the next
quiz then please
send in your Bush questions and the answers.
Sure you've pitted your knowledge of Bush's music and
personal lives against the rigors of a quiz before,but
this
test is for hardcore Bush devotees.It isn't going to be
