Magical Mystery Four by Pete Muller, Mack Meller, and Andrew White

The meta is a well-known pop rock band.

Way to keep us in suspense! The leaderboard didn’t update from 12:25 til about 12:40! Phew!!

Fun puzzle!!

Tough grid!

Board hasn't been updated yet, but this one feels like a no-doubter to me...
Edit: confirmed, on the board. Nice!

A surprisingly quick solve for me.

Very nice construction!

On the board! This one felt like the simplest of the year, for me...

Also, holy cow - plenty of people already have the red herring solved!

On the board. And, yes, tough grid.

Late start. On the board.

I had an idea on the MEGA, but the pattern I was hoping for didn't seem to repeat itself in the March puzzle. Back to square one.

Got it!

On the board!

On the board, and with the knowledge that the Red Herring was gettable at this point, I took a look and got that too! Have not yet dug in to mega meta.

On the board! Thankfully the meta was not as difficult as the grid.

On the board! And got the red herring, too (I coulda had it last month but I didn't trust myself!)

On the board.

Have others received email confirmation of submission? My board update was a bit delayed, so the lack of confirmation was unsetting - (what on earth did I enter?) I am now on the board, but still no email. Anywho, I have the correct YTD points, so apparently I typed enough in correctly for what matters.

Agree w many of you tough grid!!! Meta not so much but fun and clever and a nice Tuesday evening diversion.

Stay well all

What the heck?! I do not think I favor this new constructor ensemble!

Update:

Alright I take it back: got thrown off by first few answers but quickly fell into place. Still didn't love it. But named that band

I got the red herring too!
