TWOTELLTHETRUTHDONNA, ARLO, and “Witchraft’s” HITHER make for a nice pop music trio.
Apt juxtaposition: WHAT and LOU [Abbot and Costello’s “Who’s on First” routine]
Along with the heavy pop culture cast, we also get IAGO, DELILAH, and ERATO
Elite octet IVIES [I’m sure that’s a word in this context, but I never hear it: guess it’s slang. It does go nicely with the Brown motto.]
ARMED and GATS clued only by
"Equipped with" is awkward at best:
gats are nouns and
armed is an adjective. (The two words together read "equipped with gats" which means armed, but the cluing is just too clumsy).
RATING:
[/move]Three grins = Excellent: Loved it; Two grins = Good: Enjoyed it; One grin = Satisfactory: A bit bland for my taste; One teardrop = Unsatisfying: No fun
