What next?
Now don't get me wrong.
I support the troops out there as much as any ex-vegetarian pacificist, wishy-washy liberal pinko lefty.
But the cynic in me has to say, " Singing soldiers?"
"What the hell is going on?"
It's a war. Not some bloody talentless-show.
I don't want to see, never mind buy a record by, three blokes dressed in camouflage trousers who can sing a bit, making dicks of themselves.
Maybe I'm just bitter, as I am currently the manager of a band called "Road-Side Bomb", and I am having trouble getting them gigs anywhere for some reason. But I just think that three slightly portly service-men, regardless of their good intentions, warbling on about whatever it is they are warbling on about, is a less than dignified way to honour our troops who have sacrificed their arms, legs, and increasingly, their lives, in what seems to me to me to be a very hostile and unpleasant environment.
I just think our service personnel deserve a bit better than some reality TV show style band.
That's just what I think.
