"What's a mermen?

Oh wait, that's Merman. I think this is a mermen:

Wait, I just found this "google" thing...OK...Now something call Wikipedia...Huh. Dang, I'm glad I got up today, look what I learned:

*The Mermen are an American rock band from San Francisco, California that formed in 1989. The group's sound is rooted in surf and psychedelic music of the 1960s, but delves into many genres and is influenced mainly by band songwriter & guitarist Jim Thomas' modern melodic visions.

The Mermen have a fervent and loyal following of fans from around the world and are widely acclaimed by music critics.*

So apparently the Mermen have nothing to do with Merman but are something like modern day Liberaces. But with guitars. And less furs and jewelry.

Also: Some fans of the Mermen like bacon and some Mermen fans are surprised by that fact.
