I’m just an old geezer who enjoys having a bit of a sing song with his guitar - nothing more, nothing less.

Hi playmates!
I haven't posted for a while, so for those who are wondering, I thought I'd explain why. Apologies to my non-native English speaking friends - it's beyond my ability to explain in other languages...I'm not a linguistically clever man like young Hepti! Luv 'n' Stuff, Dave

Happy Halloween

Hi everyone. As I'm still unable to record anything new I thought I'd take the opportunity to wish you all a Happy Halloween by re-sharing a little bit of silliness we had a couple of years ago. So, to all of those of you who celebrate it, have a lot of fun and a great evening's Trick or Treating.. but, as they used to say in TV's "Hill Street Blues" back in the day - "Let's be careful out ther...
It's Music That Gets Us Through (Original Song)

Hi all. I'm over COVID now but still suffering from the breathing problems it's left me with and unable to sing. So I thought I'd re-share this original song of mine that I wrote a while ago LAST TIME I WAS ILL !!! (This old age business has a lot to answer for! lol) The 'meowing' was inspired by next door's cat doing the same on the roof outside as I was writing the song. lol Our talented budd...

I'm still poorly. Seem to spend much of my time poorly nowadays. Oh well, I'm still here to moan about it I suppose! lol I read these wise words from the late, great and zany comic genius that was SPIKE MILLIGAN and thought I'd just put a silly little tune to them...

“Although you’re a paying guest Dave, will you sing it for us?” “Ok!” says I reluctantly. “Thanks! Oh by the way, we forgot to say the PA system is crap, and the backing music’s knackered, so you’ll have to do it a Capella! 🙄 I got interupted by young David on my right jumping the gun a bit, so I decided to turn it into some banter. Thankfully, everyone laughed, not complained!! So, at the end ...

As Oasis are about to tour again after many years, I thought I'd ruin the occasion by re-sharing this load of rubbish I recorded 5 years ago just after I had been VERY ill ( a long story for another day!). I've never attempted to sing the blooming song since - it's in far too high a key for my humble vocals to sing more than once and I'm too lazy to transpose it! lol Due to my (then) illness, y...

With thanks to the Thomas Bay Hotel in San Stefano, Corfu who always provide a great experience when I'm there on holiday. This was a great and fun night, with another 40 people sat on the cooler outdoor terrace seats behind the camera (well, it WAS a blistering 38 degrees that day!!) all joining in as well.

Hi David.....Stay well, stay warm and stay safe...while enjoying your new guitar..Have a nice Sunday.....regards from Liverpool.....Dave
@@A297MAN104 😊 Thanks mate! 👍🏻 Dave
Hope you're able to breathe better soon
😊 Thanks my friend. 👍 Dave
Nice to see you! I'm looking forward to your announced projects. As long as you can't sing yet, you could also perform something nice instrumentally 🙂
@@hepti5865 That would involve some sort of talent. I might have to decline mate…😂😂😂
Hallo David, wishing you health and peace my dear friend. All the best from Fons.

Get well soon Dave, f*ck covid!!
😊 Indeed! Thanks mate. Regards, Dave
Great that you got to see the Lulu show sound like you had a good time . Hope you get better soon ! How's about an instrumental on your new guitar ? 🎸🎸 . Get better soon mate will soon be Christmas 😀😀👍👍🎸🎸 BB 👍9
😊 Thanks mate. Yeah...for a 76 year old lady, Lulu is incredible - a little bundle of dynamite on stage - and surprisingly shy and quiet off of it! It's a shame she has called time on her touring days; she had the audience eating out of her hand! As to an instrumental on my new guitar? Man...that takes REAL talent, and that's something I don't enjoy in abundance. But I'll try and do something using it soon. 👍 Dave
@@DavidSilk1956 👍👍👍
Pray you feel better real soon!🙏
😊 Thank you my friend. Dave
COVID is a "bad beast", even though I have had 5 vaccinations, I still "caught" it last year at this time; it lasted a week and then continued as before!!! I see you well anyway dear friend Dave, so soon I will see you again playing and singing on your TH-cam channel ... Take care of yourself and see you soon.. a big hug from Italy
@@carlobell32 👍🏻 Thank you, Carlo. Let’s hope neither of us get it again! 👍🏻 Dave

Take care Dave 😊 and take your time to recover ., after this I’m curious how your new guitar rocks and sounds in a new post

@@magneticdreamers9203 😂 Thanks buddy! I was watching an old re-run of the program on THATS TV last night, and the tune stuck in my bonce…so I used it mate!! 🙈😂😂😂
Hope for a great recovery Dave! 👍👍👍
😊 Thanks mate. I'm getting there. It was just a heavy infection and, let's face it - once folk become geriatric old pensioners - like me - we don't recover from ailments as quickly as we used to!!! 🤣😅 Dave
"Come on brain get working" 😂 Glad to see you recovering, that covid catch really took you down for a long while! I hope to see you singing again top of your lungs (of course you could sing before 😂). Thanks for the update mate, get well soon. Claudio 😊 Ps. Nice guitar!
😊 Thanks buddy. Dave x
„come on brain get working“ is my daily „mantra“. Regardless of whether I am healthy or ill 😂
@ 😂😂😂
Good luck with that new guitar and hope you get your breath back. The Lulu impression went reasonably, at least I understood immediately who you meant.
🤣😅😂 Lisa (who I make music with in L.S.D.)bis 52 years old and says she doesn't know who Lulu is. Makes me feel VERY old! lol Thanks Bert. x
Good to see you Davey Boy. Glad you're on the mend. You are in good form anyway 💪👍😀💗

@@DavidSilk1956 David, what crazy times. I know that the political times in the UK were and are difficult. Yesterday, after the election in the USA, our government in Germany also collapsed. Somehow everything is going down the drain. 😕 As a child, I always thought adults were sensible. Since I've grown up, I've seen that many adults, who should act sensibly and responsibly, behave worse than small children.
@@hepti5865 The whole world is currently going mad and 'down the drain' my friend. I have no answers. I wish I did. I honestly fear for the future of my grandchildren. All we can do is keep smiling and laughing, and hope that one day the human race grows up and learns to live together in peace, love and harmony. I wouldn't hold your breath whilst waiting for it to happen though if I were you...lol x

Hi David. I've been waiting for you! I know you're probably not fully recovered yet, but I'm glad to hear you sing. Ryo
🙂 Thank you my friend. As you can hear, my voice and breathing hasn't returned to normal yet, but I'm recovering quickly now so hopefully I won't be long before becoming 'fully functional' (😅🤣😂) again. Dave
This is absolutely AWESOME even though you're not perfectly recovered from Covid. Your vocals and guitar playing are always brilliant!
