Well I finally heard the new version of Do They Know It’s Christmas yesterday and I have to say that I was distinctly unimpressed. It’s even worse than Band Aid 2.
So if you want to support the Sudan but refuse to pay money for that terrible record, here’s a suggestion. Until January 9th, the British Museum have an exhibition of artifacts from Sudan. The exhibition is free, but there are Oxfam collecting boxes outside.
So don’t buy the record, go and visit the exhibtion instead. And on the way out drop to the money you would have spent on the record (or even more!) in the collecting boxes.
