Pax42: This cache is in fact gone. This was the first cache placed in this area but now there are a number of them so I've decided to archive this one. Maybe a new song puzzle somewhere else?

Geocache Description:


The posted coordinates are a good place to park.

What do you do when you’re injured, the weather is bad, and you’re stuck indoors? You dream up puzzle caches! This is the first of several that popped into my head during the holidays.

While listening to music one day I decided to use a little creative license and rename some of the songs in my collection.

Your task is to determine the real song titles and the artists (individual or group) who performed them. Add the number of characters in the artist name (letters and numbers only) and do the appropriate math. If a song has been recorded by multiple artists choose the one which had the most commercial success with the song. Do not add the word “The” to the name of any group. I’ll give you letter A as an example:

Equine Minus A Moniker = A Horse With No Name performed by America, 7 characters – 5 = 2

The rest is up to you. The cache is a well stocked ammo can. It’s available from dawn to dusk.

FTF prize: The Eagles, Long Road Out of Eden CD

A = Equine Minus A Moniker -5
B = Wearing Dungarees Ad Infinitum -10
C = Make Believe Intimate Companion -11
D = Stone Crustacean -3
E = Nonconformist Instrumental Composition +4
F = Filthy Chores Finished Very Inexpensively -4
G = Single Metallic GI +1
H = Cash For Zilch -3

Good luck and happy caching.
