KajaHunt 2013 – Day 4
‘KajaHunt’ Treasure Hunt Competition Day 4
Welcome to day 4 of the annual KajaHunt competition!
Today’s question is about ‘Goo drummer and all round nice guy Jez Strode.
Jez is not just the drummer for Kajagoogoo. His company, Atlantic Hire Services, is the sound equipment supplier of choice for most major events and concerts in the UK and Europe.
A man of many talents, Jez also owns a music management company and it is that company that we focus on with today’s question.
What was the name of the band, fronted by vocalist ‘Taf’, that were managed by Jez Strode?
Thanks for visiting KajaFax – the premier Kajagoogoo website.

HOW TO PLAY
The competition, as always, begins on December 1st. This year, we thought that we would change the format slightly and each day from December 1st to December 20th we will be asking a ‘Goo related question. The first bit is easy – answer all 20 questions and keep them written down in a safe place.
To keep things simple, there is no anagram puzzle this year! Just submit 20 correct answers to us at admin@kajafax.com to be in with the chance of a prize. Simple, eh?

Any sites associated with the band will be a great source of information. Think a little, search a little, ye shall find!
WHAT IF I MISS A DAY?
You don’t need to submit your answers daily, keep them to yourself until the end. You can play daily or do a bunch at once, your choice!
WHAT IF I’M NOT AROUND ON DECEMBER 20th, DO I MISS OUT?
We won’t be closing the competition on that day, we’ll give you lots of time to get your answers in at the end. You won’t miss out.
I’M OUTSIDE THE UK, WOULD YOU STILL POST MY PRIZE OUT IF I WON?
Yes!!
HOW WILL YOU PICK THE WINNERS?
