An update from the accuracy department!
At the Shore Leave convention last weekend, Glenn Hauman said, in reference to a man dressed as a Smurf at the convention’s Masquerade, “Can Blue Men Sing the Whites?” to which I replied, “Glenn, did you know that’s a song?” I thereupon said it had been done in the late 1960s by the Electric String Band.
I was incorrect. It was the Bonzo Dog Doodah Band that did the song “Can Blue Men Sing the Whites?” not the Electric String Band.
My apologies, Glenn!
We now return you to your regularly scheduled website reading.
