Byron Berline (born July 6, 1944) is an American fiddle player. He is widely recognized as one of the world's premier fiddle players, known for his ability to play almost any style within the vast American tradition—from old-time to ragtime, bluegrass, Cajun, country, rock, and beyond.
Berline was born in Caldwell, Kansas, started playing the fiddle at age five and quickly developed a talent for it. In 1965, he recorded the album Pickin' and Fiddlin' with the Dillards. The same year, he met Bill Monroe at the Newport Folk Festival and was offered a job with the Bluegrass Boys but he turned it down in order to finish his education. He graduated from the University of Oklahoma in 1967 with a teaching degree in Physical Education, and joined the Bluegrass Boys shortly after.
Byron Berline first met Bill Monroe in 1965 and was offered a job then. It wasn't until 1967 that he actually joined the band, though, replacing Richard Greene in March and leaving to go into the Army in September. He recorded three instrumentals with the Blue Grass Boys, including "Gold Rush" which he cowrote with Monroe, and which has become a jam session standard.

Around the World, Irish Poker, Chico High Low, Monkey Balls, Foam Game, North Carolina, Up the River Down the River, John Theis, Harry Curie, Tim de Withen, Charleston Special, or Unlucky 'Sevens' Seven is a card based drinking game, similar to, but more complex (and at the same time quicker) than, Fuck the Dealer. The game requires one standard (52-card) deck of playing cards.
The game is divided into two rounds. The first is a guessing or probabilistic round where players must make predictions about the card to be drawn, while the second is completely chance based.
In the first phase of the game, each player must make a prediction about the card to be drawn on their turn.
The dealer deals each player 4 cards face up but before dealing each card, the dealer asks the player a question about the card. If the player guesses correctly, they may "give" a drink (i.e. select a rival player who must drink). If their guess is incorrect they must instead "take" a drink. The players keep the cards that are dealt to them as they are required for the later queries and are the basis of the second round; The questions are:
Back at that high school cotillion
Chances were one in a million
She had that angora sweater
How could I ever forget her?
She had a body you'd kill for
You hoped that she'd take the pill for
She up and said, "I'm a dancer
Don't tell me you are a Cancer"
And some sez it's true
It's all she can do
Take her or leave her
But let her get hold of you
I made my move to the floor
One lonely night left in store
I can still prove I am sure
She is what loving is for
The girl is the pride of fandango
The world takes my mind with a tango
A star in the night lights Topanga
Far from the lights of Tarzana
We dance for the chance
Of romance boy, ain't it the truth?
You take two steps forward
Take one step right back to your youth
So long ago you were a Romeo
Went back to my Alma Mater
I asked to dance with her daughter
She said if it's not a bother
First dance is just for my father
Love can make this old world tremble
Life is someone you resemble
We dance and the mood starts to tumble
