Mistaken identity?

HOW amusing that the celebrated late sculptor Arthur Dooley was commemorated by the Band of the Irish Guards playing at Liverpool Academy.

Many moons ago, Dooley absconded from this very regiment (allegedly in a tank) while serving in Palestine and joined the PLO freedom fighters, before being detained in the glass-house at Her Majesty’s Pleasure. Should not the organisers have booked the Ramallah Silver and Camel-Hoof String Band?
