I like the name of this band, Ivan and Alyosha (as in Karamazov, get it?) and I like this song which I heard them perform live on the radio as I was driving home from work tonight. They’re in town to play a gig, apparently. Wish I could go.
In their words: “We enjoy having a drink, making love with our wives and singing hymns (not necessarily in that order), so we put it all together in one song.”
A nod to Kierkegaard and Walker Percy: existentialist tomfoolery, political satire, literary homage, word mongering, a year-round summer reading club, Dylanesque music bits, apocalyptic marianism, poetry, fiction, meta-porn, a prisoner work-release program.

I enjoy making love to their wives too.
Good music and hey, c'mon, didn't Abraham have two wives and don't we live in extraordinary times?
But, I withdraw the slander or the joke or both.

Sweet.
It was funny, JW. No retraction necessary. Just watch out, they have guns and whiskey.
The wife asks, "Did Saint Paul really say that? Did they have whiskey back then?"
It's only in the Catholic bible.
