On the Pulpit and Below the Belt

Matthew, Mark, Luke and… Rev. Billy C. Wirtz? Not quite the same ring to it as John admittedly, but if the slapstick boogie-woogie bluesman had his way, we’d all be waving arms and fainting in the pews of his House of Polyester Worship. Looking like Dog the Bounty Hunter’s slightly more respectable brother, Wirtz has made a career out of tinkling on the ivories and popping jokes about everything from male impotence to the quest for faith with W.W.E.D? (What Would Elvis Do?)
