6. who did the Merchant's Lunch song?
I suppose there are several versions. Was it New Grass Revival? I wanted to tell a friend who did it, but I couldn't remember.

Oh the Merchant's lunch
It was an ocean of gloom
It looked like half past midnight in the afternoon

or something :)

3. Wait'll I've had a few more beers
Bluegrass comes after techno, after heavy metal, after rap, and after blues...but before zydeco. Yes, I have my alcoholism down to a science.

And, if you're interested, I'm listening to Anthrax's "Madhouse" right now. A few more drinks to go.
