Falklands in 95...Those tw*ts that sung 'needles and pinsa' back in the dark ages...The first two rows were reserved for officers, their wives and children also if unlucky enough to be on a accompanied tour...There was some extremely raunchy dancers wearing basically leotards that had shrunk in the wash and they grinded their booty out to these unfortunate kids sat in their arm chairs whilst we, the great unwashed, strained to see anything from 50 feet away from the action...
I was easy to spot that night...once the 60's singers had gone off a ventriloquist who's dummy was a hells angel came on...it was at this point my head sank into my hands and I began sobbing uncontrollably with boredom and misery...

Was privy to the welsh tw@t myself, totally bored and had won the privilege of a front row seat at the finest Mountain Site there ever was.
Mind you Bucks Fizz the next time were pretty dire too.

Bjorn Again '98 Falklands. Wasn't expecting much from them, but thoroughly enjoyed it. Unfortunately missed seeing The Stranglers there by about a week
Now the Stranglers is another story. That was the finest performance I have ever seen from them in the Gull & Flick Knife. Superb crowd, superb atmosphere. That show was a one off, in CSE terms, without the slightest shadow of a doubt. I do believe DS was a groupie fag for them..............

Falklands '92...can't remember any of the other acts but Ray Allen (ventriloquist) and Lord Charles (the dummy). For those too young to remember him you may have to Google it. Absolutely brilliant, took the pi$$ out of the zobs etc. in the front row, did it totally un-blue and brought the house down. Better than the munter dancers (saw the next day why they kept the lighting low) and the comediene(?) who was on first.
Was that the same time as Linda Lusardi?... that's all I can remember of the CSE show in '92, Aprilish IIRC?... Just opened the swimming pool...never saw it so full, as Linda liked a swim. She had her freaky mullet haired boyfriend with her, who was a very jealous type.

Blues Brother Tribute band
In Asi in 96, this BB tribute played at 2 boats in the open air bar under the stars. They were as good as the real thing........I under stand the terminology is ' the place was jumpin' If I remember the lead singer changed his name by deed poll to Joliet Jake Blues.
At MPA in 2000 I suddenly realised how old I was. Tony Hadley was the star turn, and the guys in my work place said 'Who?'. It was pretty good, and by all accounts OC Education found the WHOLE evening quite steamy!

J-Lo came to Ramstein (hardship tour) in 2001 to entertain the troops; she was fantastic. It's a pity we had to put up with Kid Rock at the same gig.
The U2 tribute band that came to MPA in 2003 were excellent!

Jim Davidson at Aldergrove in 96 was superb. And (tigger dons a paper bag on his head) Steps came out to do Saif Saree II and were excellent. Gerry Hallibut was on the same show and was fookin woefull. 400 marines started chanting we want 'H' before she finished !

Our "star" in AAS (nov 2000 - mar 2001) was Emlyn Hughes. Now i'm sure he was a great after-dinner speaker when the ale had been flowing but when everyone was stone cold sober he was boring as feck.
He was a good footballer in his day and he died less than 4 years later. Still wasted a couple of hours out of my life.......

In the Falklands in '83 we had Jim Davidson, which is hardly surprising as he had a fascination for the place at the time. He was supported by a vetriloquist who appeared to have misread the venue and thought she performing to a kids party, not a party of blokes who act like kids!
Then we had the New Vaudeville Band. Who???, you ask as indeed we did. The ad flyer was no more revealing..performing their hit (!) Winchester Cathedral...oh yeah, THAT smashDT_Xtremez_21:
Turns out it reached number 19 ish in the charts in the mid 60s.

Can remember shelling out about 15 D's to see Jim Davidson at the snecs mess at Laarbruch in the mid 80's. Gits had got him p***ed beforehand and he could only do about half an hour. He came on in a respirator and thought he was funny!About a year later Stan Boardman was on at the NAAFI summerball at the same place. Inspired bit of booking there, thought all the boxheads were gonna either lynch him or walk out when he went on about the "Jarmans"!!

Groupie Fag!!! cheeky mother, I was indeed a "roadie" for The Stranglers 1997 Falklands, 12 days of humping and dumping, free booze, free gigs, free spare tickets ( what a currency they were!!) Dancing girlies to keep busy 24/7, one of the best tours possible, and I've got the signed photo, Cd's and T-shirts to prove it. Saw them at a festival in Bude a few years later and got invited backstage where we reminised and got very p*ssed!!Now the Stranglers is another story. That was the finest performance I have ever seen from them in the Gull & Flick Knife. Superb crowd, superb atmosphere. That show was a one off, in CSE terms, without the slightest shadow of a doubt.

Christmas 1985 Falklands we were subjected to the most dire show imaginable, a ventriloquist with his arm up "Desmond Duck" and various other "Z" listers. The granny with the guitar was a real gem - not!
Anyway, we had to take one of our "Alberts" over to the then being constructed MPA to change a fuel pump in one of the tanks. We had to go over there to use the big hanger because of the "flying beach" conditions at Stanley. Anyway, to cut a long story short, we had to stay there overnight, three of us sleeping in the aircraft.
We got well and truly p1ssed with the civvies that night and crawled, staggered back to "Albert Plaza" at some time between dusk and dawn. Being thoughtful line swine we placed a large sign on the door " If you have huge norks and a full english breakfast then please enter - otherwise "Ferk-Off"
Two guys crashed in their maggots on the crew bunks in the cockpit and I flopped on the seats down the back. In the morning woke up to find the door open thinking that "Madame Paps" had turned up with 3 breakfasts so I made my way up to the cockpit "A-la-shreddies" scratching the "danglies". My eyes took a while to adjust to the sight of two little heads sticking out of their maggots looking sightly shocked - the reason being, some junior officer had decided to show the CSE show around the cockpit, Desmond Duck, granny with guitar et all! ::/:
Cpl Beer instantly threw a fit reminding said J/O about allowing people on aircraft without "Head Honcho's" permission (crew went back to Stanley) , in this case me! They were duly reminded about breakfasts as they were leaving. Saw the aforementioned duck on the TV a couple of years later - still sh1te! ::
