Angtoria Dave Profile

I never aspired to become what most people see me as today. OK... so we all get our first guitar at an early age and dream of being Angus Young, right! Well, it happened differently for me in as much that I just took it day by day, worked hard and tried to stay focussed on the job at hand. Along the way, I've been asked by some very talented and crazy people to be involved in particular musical project's, namely, Anathema and Cradle of Filth (the latter which I'm still playing for!).
Also being involved with the music business side with Peaceville Records in the early 1990's and currently with Sixsixsix Records. Amazingly, I've again been asked by another great group of musician's to join in the exciting journey called ANGTORIA.

1) Q) Something that has inspired you through out your life?
A) I'm gonna be sad and say Star Wars. I mean... it did rock, it does rock and always will rock. I was the right age in the right era in the right place to really feel it. Balls to the new 3. I'm not 10 anymore (apparently) so they will have to try harder to get me into them. Try a script for starters haha.

2) Q) The one thing you feel should have been invented that would make your life easier?
A) A TELEPORTER!!! I get to do quite a bit of travelling and to cut out all the security and waiting around would be awesome. You could just get your stuff packed and be anywhere in seconds. How cool would that be? Moms for dinner... then a gig, then the pub, cool!

3) Q) Something you regret in your life?
A) Hmmm... well regret is something to be considered as negative right? But yet, even if you did regret something that badly, it has become part of you, and who you are, how you act. And so, even though nothing drastic comes to mind, i'd have to say if there was regret, i'd take it as positive. Etc... haha.

4) Q) Name 5 albums you cant live without.
A) AC/DC - Back in Black, Metallica - Master of Puppets, Misfits - Walf Among Us, Jeff Buckley - Grace, Hellraiser soundtrack

5) Q) One more for good luck!
A) The Star Wars soundtracks by John Williams (the first 3 of course).

6) Q) Name your poison!
A) Beer... and shitloads of it. Followed by shots of any particular kind.

7) Q) Where do you always end up when drunk?
A) Bed... mine... or worse, my front room floor.

8) Q) If you were asked to do a CRADLE OF FILTH gig, covered in chocolate on a 35 degree day for a rowdy bunch of German farmers that had never seen a woman with all her teeth, would you?
A) Fuck no... I mean why Carl? If they've never seen women then there must be something wrong with them... and to see us wouldn't exactly help the situation. But a rowdy bunch of Germans, cool! anytime!!!
