How many times have you been bombarded with the statement “With
LIVE Band”? Especially in adverts for restaurants and bars. Yesterday I think I
saw and heard this phrase three times which set my mind wandering. If they are
advertising a “Live Band” it automatically begs the question is there a “Dead
Band” out there somewhere? Maybe certain unscrupulous businessmen use bodies of
dead people posing with musical instruments to dupe customers into believing
that there are musicians performing. I know it is gruesome. And it would be
that much easier to get some mannequins instead. Or is this an alternative to
certain places playing performances of concerts through DVD. Or is this another
uniquely Sri Lankan English word. Like Chinese Rolls? Do you know you can’t
find Chinese Rolls in China and its only available (as far as I know) over here?
What do you think??????
