THIRTY-NINE QUESTIONS FOR CHARLIE DANIELS UPON HEARING"The Devil Went Down to Georgia" for the First Time in 25 Years.

1. The Devil won that fiddling contest, right? 2. Because isn't that totally amazing fiddle feedback thing the Devil plays (which sounds like Hendrix gone bluegrass) a hundred times better than that high-school-band piece-of-crap tune Johnny plays? 3. I mean, come on, right? 4. And since the Devil is so clearly better, why does he lay the golden fiddle on the ground at Johnny's feet? 5. What kind of one-sided bet was that anyway, your eternal soul for a fiddle? 6. Shouldn't it have been something like Johnny's soul or the eradication of Evil? 7. Or maybe a golden fiddle against some object Johnny placed great value upon? 8. If the Devil went down to Georgia 'cause he was looking for a soul to steal, why does he arrange what appears to be an honest competition? 9. Was there actually some hidden theft or scam going on here on the part of the Devil? 10. Then why not explain that, Mr. Daniels? 11. And who was judging that contest? 12. Was it an honor-system kind of thing? 13. With the Devil? .............

my favorite is #24 (i think)
