They're growing cynical at an earlier age, these days.....

Yesterday, when I went with D's 3d grade to see "Holes", I sat in the front row. The little boy two seats down commented, as the end credits were rolling, with disgust in his voice, "Why do they always have to have a happy ending?"

Trivia Quiz: Rock stars real names.....

I had this idea after xiphias suggested I ask a TQOTD about which rock star was originally named David Jones but changed it so that he would not be confused with the Monkee of the same name. Rather than asking that, I'd thought I'd give you a list of real names and rock names, and you could pair them up.

Rock names:

Marilyn Manson
David Crosby
Bono
Flea
David Bowie
Axl Rose
Gene Simmons
Sting


Real names:

Brian Warner
David Jones
Gordon Sumner
William Bailey
Chaim Witz
Paul David Hewson
Michael Balzary

You'll notice there is one more rock name than real name... that's because one of the rock stars recorded under his real name.... which one?
