A pubic hair piece. A toupee for the pubic area/genitals. In the 1700’s when mercury was used to treat sexually transmitted diseases (Gonorrhea or Syphilis) one of the side effects was the loss of pubic hair. To disguise this condition, that was not cured by mercury, a Merkin was employed.
17th Century setting: Due to his treatment of the "French Pox" (syphilis) with mercury a merkin Gwendolyn used a Merkin to used to hide the side effects of hair loss and not alarm her husband.

A band that kicks ass! Especially with Lorelei and COME SAIL AWAY!
Styx is righteous, psychadelic, and amazingly flandiferous.

One of the greatest American rock bands ever formed. With a long active career that lasted from the early 70s to the mid 80s, Styx scored numerous hits such as "The Grand Illusion", "Blue Collar Man", "Pieces of Eight", "Babe", "Fooling Yourself (The Angry Young Man)", "Too Much Time On My Hands", and "Love Is The Ritual".
As other people have mentioned on here, Styx does have a similar sound to REO Speedwagon. That is because they play related forms of rock music, and they are both from Illinois, which explains the identical-sounding vocals.
