The Loving

The four lads who would one day make up The Loving spent their formative years apart from each other and the world. At the age of 13 years and 11 days, they were each assigned to and accordingly abandoned on a tropical desert island (which is to say they each had their own) by the scions and inheritors of The World Banking Conspiracy. It was one of those ambitious if misguided attempts at Human Village Cultural Engineering and Project Eden just might have worked had they remembered to deliver the girls.Years passed.Just which boy left his island first is a matter of great debate and none of them are talking. Some say it was Robert though this has never been proven beyond refute. What we do know is they all surfaced somewhere in their twenties in Pacific Rim urban centers sporting gaunt physiques, peaceful dispositions and all manner of unusual facial hair. Reports suggest their pubescent time away from the fairer sex had not impeded their natural appetites to that end in the slightest. -Quite the contrary if the locals are to be believed.So how did they finally meet? The Singapore Daily published an article stating they were trapped together in a high-rise elevator during a peak season weekend. The sold-out hotel was hosting conventions for both the International Girl Scouts Alumni and the Pacific Gynecological Trustees. Why the boys were there isn't clear. In any event, they went into the elevator strangers, and came out soul brothers with an album's worth of material to show for their 36 hours of confinement. They have gone on record attributing their survival that weekend to "the music" and their early island training.Their favorite color is blue.
