6. Which former Ants member died a few years ago?
Answer: Matthew Ashman, former guitarist with the Ants (from June, 1978 to Jan, 1980), died in November 1995 due to complications from diabetes

7.What instrument did Johnny Bivouac play?
Answer: Johnny played guitar (left handed!) with the Ants from Oct. 1977-May, 1978.
Note: This contest originally listed Jimmy Bivouac, which was incorrect. So hats off to all who also pointed out the mistake when submitting the answer. Sorry for the inconvenience.

8. Who was Jordan?
Answer: Jordan was originally an employee of the shop, SEX, where she met Adam. She became his friend/love interest and eventually the band's manager for a short while. She also sang 'Lou' with Adam and acted acted in Derek Jarman's film, Jubilee.

9. Name two former band members who played drums,
prior to Terri Lee Miall joining the band?

Answer: All answers were found in the feature: Bside Baby. Any two drummers would have sufficed: Paul Flanagan, Dave Barbe (or Barbarossa) and Merrick (aka Chris Hughes, who joined shortly before Terri Lee).
Note: Despite the fact that Jon Moss recorded Car Trouble and Kick with Adam in early 1980, he wasn't considered an Ant as he didn't stick around long enough and he only 'filled in' on drums.

10. Prior to being called Adam and the Ants,
what was the name of Adam's band?
Answer: Prior to the name, the Ants, the band was called the B-sides.

Note: Winners were announced (as listed above) on April 1st at 9:15 p.m. EST. Odds of winning are based on the number of entries received. This contest expired on March 31, 2000. Many thanks to GX, Bryan Stanton and Scott Gibbons. Watch for future contests. Thanks to all who participated!
