My "Are you Manics fan?" quiz

(I don't know if it should be here or appreciation)

I made a quiz! Check it out here!

Are you a Manics fan?

What's your score?

I actually moved from Australia to London just so I could see the Manics. Beat that

(I've contemplated moving to Wales and applied for jobs in Cardiff too)

1!
Who would have thought drug addiction is cheaper than being a Manics fan?
You'd shit it if the band went green and started going on about the carbon footprint of following them around the country, let alone world!

Okay so I actually did the quiz and it turns out I'm a casual fan, what the hell! Surely I should get 1000 points for moving to London from Australia, two days before they released "Australia" as a single, and two weeks before seeing them live for the first time when the first track I heard them play was "Australia"

Also, as a Mansun fan, I could not help but laugh ruefully at no. 54...

I liked the old school nature of the quiz but also some great humour deets!

humour was my main motivation in creating this after some few weeks of rather upsetting Manics news

I lost count but pretty sure I was still safely within the casual zone.
