The band rehearsed every day in Dave's appartment,witha 1000 watt p.a!(much to the annoyance of the neighbors!)Dave knew the local press, and with their help got plastered on all the local media, including, radio and cable TV. Many trips to London got a buzz going. Articles in N.M.E, and Melody maker(music mags) were a real plus, and with the coventry based 'NETWORK CONTROL' , coach trips to tour venues were set up.The first gig at Busters Nightclub was a sellout! and the band had 4 songs! we played for 2 hours!Local bands were invited to help us on good gigs outside of the midland area. My friend Andy(Fridayz Angelz) played with us several times at the London gigs. Most of our agency gigs, were university shows. , but we played most of the major clubs all over the country. I can remember drivin the van back from a south coast gig!, and almost falling asleep at the wheel! I was seeing seagulls in the middle of the road! We had a great friend Kieran, that made all our clothes, and did all make up!Dave kept in touch with Tony James thru the early stages of BKZ.
