    Q & A Session With Dave, or, "Grill Bladesman"
    Hello all!
    Since the Q & A with Steve went down so well on the old boards, and since I couldn't pull up any interesting Web pages on our esteemed keyboardist, thought I'd start a thread for everyone to post questions to Dave. I'll kick it off with a few, then everyone chime in and ask Dave whatever you'd like to know about him--about the music, his hobbies, whatever. As on the Steve topic, keep it respectful (naturally!) and keep the personal banter to a dull roar so he doesn't have so much to wade through. Cheers!! :D

    I'll start with some standards:

    --How old were you when you started playing? Was piano your first instrument or was it something else?

    --Do you play any other instruments now?

    --What were some of the other projects you worked on, and when?

    --How do you feel your playing has improved over the years? Are there any techniques you'd still like to learn?

    --Who did you most enjoy working with? Who would you still LIKE to work with?

    OK...I'll shut up now, I'm sure other things I'd like to know someone else will ask. Thanks, Dave, for doing this for us, and everybody HAVE FUN!! :top

    Hi Dave~so nice of you to come visit.

    Just wondering if you took lessons as a child, and if so did you hate them like I did :-D

    hi jerking piano man :D !

    Seen you with your son in London and wondered how you manage to keep the family life up and running while youre on tour.
    it's hard to combine family and job in any other job as well, but guess when travelling for month it must be much harder... ?!

    take care

    How did you come to Simply Red?
    What are your favourites? ...band, music style, song, singer/songwriter, musician...
    Any embarrassing mishap you remember being on stage?
    Favourite place to spend your holidays? (You can keep this global, we don't want to know the exact hotel :wink:)
    Do you remember the first record you bought? Would you still listen to it today?
    Do you like the music your kids listen to? Or is it just noise for your ears? (I remember my daddy used to tell me to turn down the sound :shock: ... but does that make any sense when you're listening to "Living on the Edge" by Aerosmith?????)

    OK, that's it for now :D

    What did you enjoy on your holiday in India ?

    Why did you leave the Annie Lennox band, are you still in touch ?

    How is the progress with the school, is it all rebuilt now ?

    Who is the easiest to travel with on tour ?

    I will limit the questions to other inquiring minds.......

    Love,
    Lin+Mark xx

    Can one of you more studied SR fans explain the meaning of "Grill Bladesman"?

    :doh

    :doh

    *giggle* Bladesman is Dave's nickname...it has to do with the soccer team he supports. (Sheffield United??? *cringes, in case she's wrong*) WHAT it means, you'd have to ask him. He LOVES talking football (as they call it over there and everywhere else in the world!!), so I think he'd be happy to clarify.

    And since I figured he'd get asked a ton of stuff, I thought it would turn into a "grilling" session.

    Hence "Grill Bladesman". :D

    Howdy Dave!!

    What pianists/keyboardists (living or deceased) do you admire the most? Who of them have you had the opportunity to work with or would you like to work with?

    Hope you had a wonderful holiday (Christmas/New Year)...!!!

    Dave,

    Have you made any CDs or tapes as a solo artist? Just you playing piano?

    Thanks,

    Karen

    *BUMP*

    ...to this topic as well. Just in case. :wink:

    Don't forget, Dave, you can just scroll down the reply page to find another scrolling window with everyone's replies on it, so it's easier to answer the stuff.

    Whenever you have the time. We know you're busy. Looking forward to the results! :-D

    Hi Dave!
    Nice to see you again! Looks like you were pretty busy! Can't wait to see you all again this summer! Most likely I will go to the concerts in Gelsenkirchen and Hannover. As these dates have switched now I hope I won't drive in the wrong direction (worst case scenario) :shock:
    Not so sure about Bonn anymore. Nicole, a very close friend of mine who lives in Bonn and wanted to go to the concert with me, told me a few weeks ago that she is pregnant. She will be in the 8th or 9th month in August... Yeah, but I am very happy for her :-D

    You mentioned football. Sorry, I don't know ANYTHING about that :oops: But one question: Will you have some time to watch the World Cup 2006 this summer? Maybe even in the stadium? I recognized that the tour start will overlap with the finals! So maybe it's better, the English team will drop out of the game early :devil :P ...sorry, couldn't resist :wink:

    love
    Michi

    Blades!!!!

    Great to see you, we missed you on here...*big bear hug* Do you want us to just send over the questions from here to your PressureZone site then? I've been watching that site like a hawk waiting for that new album to drop...shall I just give over the credit card details now? :D

    Looking forward to seeing you and the rest of the band in July, naturally...:top We'll do what we can to rally support for Amplified to maybe extend that tour a bit. :wink: The album sounds like it's gonna be a barnburner, so it shouldn't be much work for us!

    Confession: Your friendly neighborhood mod is missing the online presence of your bandmates as well. Especially the ones who used to light up the official forums. Hope they might find the time to pop in and say hello...we'd love to see 'em here at The Red Box. *5-ton hint* :D :D :D

    Congrats, by the way, on Sheffield United's success! Keep us posted on your beloved team, eh? Let us know how far they go. :-D

    Oh, and I just noticed now that you'd referred to yourself as "The Grilled Bladesman" in your subject above, Dave... :lol: :lol: :lol:

    Any sauce you'd prefer to be smothered in as you sit over the hot coals? :devil :twisted: :devil :twisted: :devil

    Sorry, it's 2:30 am and my sense of humor's gone a bit gonzo. :D

    Hi Dave !

    Great to see you stop by for a visit, will check out your site.

    Wonder if you have any idea how we all have a strong bond
    for the "cause".... think we've all got it bad....

    Your tour schedule looks so full, hope you get a chance to
    relax a bit or tour the cities you visit.

    Thanks again for remembering us, hope to see you at a
    concert this year.

    Love,
    Lin + Mark xx
