Long ago in a far away land, brothers Albie and Anthony Strange left the Amish community in which they were raised for the traditional year of experiencing the real world. Almost at the end of their “real world” year, their careers took a touching and slightly frightening turn on the day they met the Weird Sisters at a Shoney’s outside Pittsburgh, where the Sisters were bulking up for an expected loooong weekend intervention for blues legend B.B. King. Albie, noticing Sissy’s barely touched corned beef hash asked, “You gonna eat that?” The Sisters promptly had the manager arrest both brothers and charge them as “mashers.” Albie refused to be jailed without his bass, and when Ludovica saw the size of his impressive instrument, she quickly offered to post bail only if the Brothers Strange would devote the rest of their lives to providing back up to the Sisters, not only musically but also in the occasional situation calling for bouncers, alibis, or late night sandwich runs. Trapped, and without a zipper to their names, Brother Anthony and Brother Albie agreed. They traded in their wide-brimmed hats for sunglasses and a case of Cabernet, and headed off to seek their fortunes with the Sisters.
