mr. 777,
while never being a fan of WHAM!, one of the lines in 'Club Tropicana' has always intrigued me.
In the chorus, George Michael states repeatedly that, "Club Tropicana, drinks are free".
Now, most people know that there is no such thing as a free lunch. Check out the excellent song "Sweet Nothing' by Working Week, (1985). - it knocks Wham into a 'cocked hat', (remember those,

)
So, who the hell picked up the tab for the drinks?
My theory, (which is mine and what it is too), is that it was the Musician's Union, 'working together' with management!
