OK, I was looking for a Deus Ex Machina for Parson to pull out of his backside. Trying (in desperation) to lead a dance-fight himself seemed an obvious one. He at least recognizes DDR, so he may have tried it a few times. Chief Warlord personal stack bonus is enough to turn a basic bat into the equivalent of heavy infantry (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/erf0125.html) possibly not including dance fight bonus; what does the combination do to heavy duty casters? Given his basic build and the nature of the Titans, a "fat" Elvis impersonation and something particularly epic from the King's songlist might save the day. So, I poked Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Elvis_Presley_songs)... and note a couple possibilities. "When The Saints Go Marching In" has some promise, but using "Your Cheatin' Heart" would have a poetic touch. ("He can't do that! Can he?")
More interesting, however, were that a number of song titles stood out as possibly being linked to particular comics pages; EG: "Good Time Charlie's Got the Blues" (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/erf0109.html). "You're All I Want For Christmas" (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/erf0077.html). There's probably others that those more obsessed than I with both Erf and Elvis will suggest.
A quick search of the archives did not turn up any mention of such thematic connection that I saw. Thus, I observe this, and go "Hmmmm."
