Wake up the pair of ye and smell the roses!!!
What it at the bottom of all this Westlife/SF crap is the elusive ( for me anyway) MONEY.
For a 'managed' band like westlife mieda expousure is everything and like it or not the 'poppyday' event is well couvered by the mieda, thus any selfrespecting money makers would get on the bandwaggon. While money may be green I'd say westlife, or in fact the vast majority of the 6 billion of us, would except orange money just as easy.
On the flip side was Gerry Addams using the music industry, in the form of the excellent doucementry shown on RTE on Luke Kelly, for political wealth?
