Had a conversation about Midge last night and wondered what the general opinion was.

I find it strange and unbelievable really that Midge was not knighted at the same time as Geldof, yeah I know that he received the OBE but Midge co write Do Thy Know Its Christmas, he also co organised Live Aid and Live 8 and is still the patron for the charity. Add to this his services to music with groups such as Slik, Rich Kids, Visage, Thin Lizzy and of course Ultravox and it baffles me as to why Geldof got a Knighthood and Midge didnt

IMO Midge had always kept a lower profile.
It was always Geldolf in the media.
