Not so much - but I was just ordered to leave the lounge because of a "The Smell-Real Phart" wasn't considered SFW.

It's a bit quiet on here today, so I thought there might be room for another one. And this one is truly MASSIVE! It's a whole concert of covers.
Jules Buckley, (who has to be the coolest conductor dude on the planet), with Pete Tong and the Heritage Orchestra at the 2015 BBC Proms doing "The Radio 1 Ibiza Prom". This is one and a half hours of pure joy/magic and probably the best use of that time that you could ever make. No matter what your musical tastes, you are never going to have more fun listening to an orchestra than this!

OK - puzzle me this:
You've a number of posts at this point touting 'covers'. Any reason you just don't listen to the real thing? Not that I'm specifically against 'covers' - the first Hot Tuna album (entitled "Hot Tuna", a true thing of beauty,[^] was essentially only covers - basically traditional works that are, practically speaking, always covers.
OK - if somethings' like a hundred-year-old blues piece that can be difficult (not always impossible!), but the real deal's quite available (even on youtube). So, why oh why?

LOL  If you want me to start listing all the 'real' stuff I like, we are going to be here for a while. In fact, I'm probably going to have reached an age where I can't remember what I liked.
I guess covers was a small enough category for me to pick a few favourites from. And it is interesting to see someone's completely different take on a track. It also tends to spark a bit of a debate. Will a Led Zep fan stomach Corinne Bailey Rae covering one of their tracks? Light the blue touch paper and stand back!

I think the whole thing about "you are in a maze" is meant to be part of the clue too... Adventures might be found in a maze
|
|
|
|

The "you are in a maze" is part of the clue, Adventures might be found in a maze.
There are other clues in the first line as well
|
|
|
|
|
That part is right. You are close!
|
|
|
|

Despite not realising it was the solution word, you are the first to come up with ADVENTURES - see 'solution' in thread below for explanation.
So, I think that you are up tomorrow.

I think he knew "Adventures" was the answer, what he meant was where is the synonym for it (which is typically expected to be part of the clue).

I'm guessing you are looking for ADVENTURER, as someone who has adventures, but ...

So close. Look at your 'good' answers (in reply to @OriginalGriff). See last two words in the clue line (for all)

Pleads (URGES)

around a gas hole VENT But I'm not sure what contributes the "AD".
