BOC: Gigs in M.E.262land (was: Dino-tours)

[Andy Gilham]

Of course you're right, because you know the whole song and its context.  But
if you're a neo-Nazi with limited English and an even more limited sense of
irony - or a tabloid journalist, ditto - you might easily think the song
glorifies Nazism.  I've no idea whether BOC did or did not play "Me 262" in
Germany, but they might well have been keen to avoid anything that might
associate them (however misguidedly) with Nazism.  After all, they were
already sailing pretty close to the wind with the hooked cross emblem.
