++ MaHeStRo ++
Question #1:  The band's name came from Mannheim, Germany where Mozart lived. But what does the name Steamroller refer to?
        A. A German horse-drawn Holiday music-organ cart, or
        B. The steam from the drummers as they beat ("roll") their drummers very rapidly, or
        C. An 18th century musical technique known as the crescendo.

The band’s name came from Mannheim, Germany where Mozart lived. Mannheim Steamroller is the name for an 18th century musical technique known as the crescendo.
            [SOURCE: Fun Facts – Mannheim Steamroller]

Question #2: The founder of Mannheim Steamroller, Chip Davis, also created and produced records under the name of CW McCall, which included the CB craze single "Convoy". True or false?
        A, True, or
        B. False.

    Davis worked as a jingle writer for a thriving Omaha, Nebraska advertising agency. While there, he and one of the agency’s ad execs, Bill Fries, dreamed up a fictional truck driver named CW McCall for a series of commercials for The Old Home Bread company.
    The television commercials were so popular that stations began fielding requests from listeners. Eventually, the Nashville A&R community came calling and Davis and Fries negotiated a record deal to produce recordings for under the name of CW McCall. One of the songs, a single called “Convoy” blew open the popular CB radio craze of 1975. Within two months, 10 million record buyers were singing along and two years later Kris Kristofferson starred in the hit movie by the same name.
            [SOURCE: About Chip – Mannheim Steamroller] 

Question #3: While Davis runs the Mannheim Steamroller company in Orlando, FL; what are the names of the other 2 Mannheim Steamroller "touring" companies?
        A. The Gold and Silver Tours, or
        B. The Snow (White) and Sky (Blue) Tours, or
        C. The Red and Green Tours.
           

    The Christmas tradition that is Mannheim Steamroller gave another entertaining show last night in the Palace Theatre.
    To be precise, it was the musicians of the Red tour, which covers the eastern United States.
    A second ensemble, also calling itself Mannheim Steamroller, is simultaneously performing in the western states on the Green tour.
            [SOURCE: "Concert Review | Mannheim Steamroller: Familiar show still a reliable holiday treat"]     
    Two groups of Mannheim Steamroller musicians will be performing around the country during the holiday season.
    Called the "red" and "green" teams, they have rehearsed under Chip Davis' direction in the weeks prior to the start of the tour.

=================
++  CONCERT BROCHURE OF THE DAY ++
           "... but there was enough demand to form two touring companies during Christmas season—naturally named the Red and the Green units.  The two companies do between 80 and 90 shows during the holiday season" -- see 2017 Concert Brochure, p 2.
