It occurs to me that you don't have to go to a Karaoke night to hear people who can't play and sing - there are lots of gigging bands that I wouldn't want to see twice.

I once sat through a YMCA pantomime that was nearly four hours long. Jumpers were leaping from the balcony to escape the boredom. The important thing was that the kids who were performing loved every minute of it.

Can we really go down the route of having Music Police who set the standards to be achieved before people are allowed to perform? I think not.

Then again, where did you get the t-shirt, Eddie, and do they post to the UK?
