it comes in pints?

I'm shocked, shocked...

to learn there is gambling in Casablanca such a dearth of basic Rock 'n' Roll knowledge in this crew. You should be ashamed of yourselves, children.

On the question of the Fat Man (genuflect), the lovely and erudite Mumblix Grumph got the first two, but not the others.

Listen up and learn, children: I'm ready, willing, and able to ROCK AND ROLL ALL NIGHT. That's right, kiddies, KISS didn't write that line.

For the other one, I'M GONNA BE A WHEEL SOMEDAY, then I won't want you.

All of you who didn't know that, go say 500,000 Hail Marys. NOW, KID!

All right, on to the next one that people didn't get: The lovely Laura got "Wake Up Little Susie" and the lovely Nightfly got "Darlin' Be Home Soon".

I will forgive y'all for not getting the first one but only because Little Richard mumbles the line. I'd swear he sings "you won't do your sister's will" but the consensus seems to be that the lyric is "daddy's will". And it's Lucille who won't do it.

For that last one, I'd have been amazed if ANYONE got it. Never heard it before. The answer is Bo Diddley, who is apparently the most narcissistic performer in the history of Rock 'n' Roll, having named at least two different songs for himself. As for that amusing commercial I promised, here it is for those of you who've never seen it. One of the most amusing commercials of all time, especially when the hockey player says "...no."
