Great rock band there.<br /><br />The thing about the yobs, that's my point though. Khe Sanh is probably even more a bitter and sharp social comment on the state of life for a Vietnam veteran as Springsteen (also six years earlier), or Redgum's <i>I Was Only Nineteen</i>, but the drunken yobs seem to miss the point. That's not really the band's fault though.Kris McCrackenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13789355638389350528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2152399175276461352.post-62497765929398782462010-10-10T18:09:53.803+11:002010-10-10T18:09:53.803+11:00The chest-beating, flag-wearing aspects of 'St...The chest-beating, flag-wearing aspects of 'Straya Day, that is.smudgeonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01684987714751518060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2152399175276461352.post-51983514509082367572010-10-10T18:09:09.141+11:002010-10-10T18:09:09.141+11:00Khe Sanh...I'm sure it's a good song (I qu...Khe Sanh...I'm <i>sure</i> it's a good song (I quite like the melody), but for me it's hard to disassociate it from yobbos, the smell of stale VB, and shouting about "ciggies in the silver city" (or something).
