This sounds pretty cool to me. You must be quite young. I've been out drinking with some Morris men, and they're generally incredibly hardy drinkers. I'm also a bit concerned that you're presumably English (Morris is definitely an English phenomenon) but are using the word 'frigging', which is clearly a sign of spending too much time with American culture.
Our Muh tends to listen to country or Irish, both of which I like. Our Da tends to listen to a lot of AM rock type stuff, some of which I like (Carpenters, Meatloaf) some of which leaves me very cold (Beatles, Colplay). Generally I appreciate that both of them have had much less time to care about the latest hip underground band putting out limited editions on purple 7", what with having raised a family and all.
