    Dave is awesome. Great interview 👍. I love the Tin Spirits album Scorch.

    I just saw Ex-TC and they were great! Trio, but nobody would’ve complained if Dave was in the band, too!

    Dave's the best. Absolute gem of a musician and person.

    Wow! Dave and Aimee were an item! 'Whatever' is a wonderful album. Re: XTC tours of Australia - I was really lucky to see both of the tours! They were playing such small clubs / pubs on that first tour in 1979! I saw them at the Stagedoor Tavern in Sydney. Then in 1980 they were playing much bigger venues.

    The Dukes albums are actually my favorite XTC albums.

    Thanks to The Guitargonaut for answering my questions regarding tribute bands, especially my old band, Fossil Fools. Dave's (and Colin Moulding's) support for us will always be treasured. It's great that other bands are still showcasing XTC's music, including EXTC, Scarecrow People and The Fuzzy Warblers (who showcase most, if not all of Andy P's Fuzzy Warbles), amongst others! Love you Dave! ❤

    16:01 One last time to manifest XTC
    I think that is exactly would should happen. One concert, well rehearsed, one stage, no need to travel around, recorded to perfection.
