We realise that the above headline may well win the prize for most bizarre of the year, but our men at the conference swear that this is how Middle East Work Boats kicked off proceedings this morning. What’s more we’ve even got photographic evidence to prove it.
Apparently after the bagpipers had finished assaulting everyone’s ears with their caterwauling, a 45 piece marching band took over and welcomed the delegates into the conference hall.
Full marks to ME Work Boats – if they keep going at this rate U2 will be doing an acoustic set at the first break-out session, followed by Elton John leading a sing-along at lunch.
