Philosophy
My Fellow Comedists,
This weekend we turn our thoughts to music. Good brother Gwydion pointed me to a recent project of a true comedist saint, Steve Martin, who while on his latest banjo tour with the Steep Canyon Rangers composed a song for atheists.
It seems only fair since he did write the Comedist hymn "Grandmother's Song." But it raises a question. Are there other atheist songs?
Here is one from the Gettysburg Pirate Orchestra (billed as central Pennsylvania's premier landlocked nautical-themed ensemble)
Do feel free to download their new album Simon von Utrecht -- much there for a comedist to love (especially "Crazy Squirrels").
So, other good atheist tunes?
Live, love, and laugh,
Irreverend Steve
