He also appeared on the Comedy Central game show ''Beat the Geeks'' as the Music Geek. In 2009, to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the Woodstock Festival, Zax produced the boxed set ''Woodstock: 40 Years On: Back to Yasgur's Farm'',〔(Billboard.com )〕 for which he was nominated for a Grammy for Best Historical Album.〔52nd Grammy Awards - Historical〕 Zax reconstructed all three days of the Woodstock audio from the original multi-track tapes. By doing so, he was able to establish a definitive setlist for the festival, ending decades of speculation about what order artists had played in and what material they played.〔(Woodstock: 40 Years On description at Rhino.com )〕 Zax was a recurring panelist on the live stage revival of ''What's My Line?'' in Los Angeles and New York City from 2004 to 2008. He was also a contestant on the very first episode of the Fox game show ''Greed'' on November 4, 1999. When asked what he'd do with the top prize if he were to win, he replied that he'd use it to finish his novel. From October 2006 until May 2007, he hosted a weekly radio program, ''Archives of Oblivion'', described as "a treasure hunt through the scrapheap of mid-20th Century pop-culture ephemera", showcasing his notoriously eccentric record collection. On January 19, 2008, he married actress Lisa Jane Persky in Beverly Hills. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Andy Zax」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
