Triple Rocktroll Lyrics
Assignment Value:
So far, 11 people have completed this assignment.
As an homage to the popular Triple Quotes assignment, this one puts a rock music twist on it.
Find an image of a well known rock star, add to it a phrase by song lyric by someone related in some way to the star in the image and then attribute the quote to a third, related musician. From Know Your Memes:
(1) Get a picture of rock star people idolize. Mick Jagger, Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison — any beloved rock star from the 1970s will do.
(2) Slap on a phrase from the song lyric from a similar musician from a different band or era. Pick something close enough that a non-fan might legitimately confuse them. If you’re using Jimmy Page from Led Zeppelin, for example, you’ll probably want to grab a song lyric from say, the band Spirit (whom Led Zeppelin was accused of lifting the riff for Stairway to Heaven)
(3) Attribute the lyric to another band or musician from yet a third confusing space (maybe Eric Clapton).
This way, nothing about your image is correct, and you’re trolling fans of all three characters at once. Inspired by the "Nickelchad" example by Terry Greene
