Yes, alcoholism is a worldwide problem, but not everyone wants to get bladdered. And I've never heard it said that to be cultural, you need to be drunk whilst enjoying music.
I've never been to an Arthur's Day event, but have been to a number of parties/pubs where there has been live music, often with people just turning up with instruments, and whilst we all had a drink, we were too busy enjoying the music to drink that much.
Ok, so this is an attempt to commercialise a chance to enjoy yourself. Is Christmas really any different these days?
