    51 and there were a few more I should've gotten. Not a metalhead by any stretch but there are some good bands and I had a subscription to Guitar Wprld for about a decade.

    76 but only about 70 was on the first look, and the others were the second time through or just guessing. A very good quiz, this.

    I got 66. That's pretty good but I wish I had gotten more. Oh well.
