a DIY CD of the dave's music, constantly updated to become the most up to date representation of The Dave's music. Yes that's right its a personalised CD, it's an exclusive CD, it's a fucking one off each time you buy, if The Dave becomes a world wide success it will be worth a fortune on ebay!
(when you order the dave: THE ALBUM you will be given one of the many different album covers unless you message me and specifically request your favourite cover and I’ll do my best to make sure that you get the one you want!)
About The Dave:
I started learning guitar at 15. I still use the same guitar. It was second hand when I bought it. I'm 26 in october. I can't tune it, I have to wait till someone who can happens to be around. There is a penny superglued to it that I stuck there when I was 17. There used to be matches as well but they have fallen off. I drew biro lines over it. I don't know why. I can't play bar chords.
I write songs and play them to people.
I learnt guitar so I could do this.
I don't need to play guitar very well in order to write songs.
I think this is why I have never developed into a brilliant guitar player.
We take the paths of least resistance even if we think we are taking the longer way.
I want to play guitar well.
But maybe I don't want to enough.
There is something that I like about the rawness of what I do, though.
We lose so much through learning, sometimes more than we gain. A child at 5 knows more (in some ways) than an adult. A cliche but at the same time the truth.
Or a truth.

Mama Shamone http://www. myspace. com/mamashamone “Put Mama Shamone on at any venue and they are likely to take the roof off, this was one of the best live shows I’ve seen in years - certainly one of the best in London. In my opinion these guys are destined for greatness, it felt like I was witnessing history being shaped-something was just so right about what they were doing up there.” Vibe Bar
