On a more serious note, this song always makes me think of my father. He did nearly three consecutive terms in Vietnam and was given two weeks back home to be there when I was born. He said he almost deserted after that. Vietnam screwed him up for long time and he still won't talk about it or watch a war movie.

Plus, the song rocks.

EDIT - I just ran through a quick 80s scan - I miss the big hair virtuosos.

My current teacher was this guy's coach. Lynch was a hero of mine. Too bad his sig guitars are ugly.

Someone should initiate a skiffle revival. I would but I have no idea what the fuck it is.

Skiffle, according to this article, is the British equivalent of American rockabilly. It has a sort of shuffling beat and has roots in folk, blues, and jazz.

John Lennon's original Quarrymen was formed as a skiffle group, and Lonnie Donegan, a Britisher, had that big '50s skiffle hit, "Does Your Chewing Gum Lose its Flavor?"

Spinal Tap also started as a skiffle band! Give Me Some Money!
