Hi Roddy, Just a question on what the guys in The Specials think about the state of the country today and the world perhaps.
I mean is racism still something that you guys talk about? and what about the riots? what did you guys make if all that?
Also as its the 10th anniversary of 9/11, do any of the band have any thoughts on the attacks? and the war/ invasions that followed?
Just asking this as i've always liked The Specials not just for the music but for also having the nuts to speak out on certain issues.

Cheers for the reply Roddy, well with or without Jerry the gigs are still going to live long in the memory for most of us who were to young to go and see you the first time around especially.

Misfortune and injustice is upsetting, and publicity hungry celebrities jumping on board traveling charity shows are no Mother Teresa. Their glitz can overwhelm and cheapen the cause
