Meta Prompt
The answer to the meta is a rock band
The meta mechanism in this puzzle came to me while driving home from work. I don't think that's a spoiler! Once I got home, I just had to see if it would work, and I think it does.

Check out "The MOAT Mini Pack of Marching Bands" here: https://www.ephesusscroll.com/about/interest4.html. US$5 gets you 7 Marching Bands which, hard enough on their own, now contain metas too. And once again there's a mega-meta!
