interview interviewdavid r black - FROM
LA TO LINCOLN
When it's the 51ST date on a tour you could
excuse David Roy Naylor (one third of band DAVIDRBLACK) to be a bit road weary,
but if he is he isn't showing it. Maybe it's because he never ceases to be
amazed at what travelliong in a band will throw up, whether it being asked to
support someone in LA (that's Los Angeles not the Leigh Arms near Wigan) or last
nights night gig in Lincoln.
It's also a time for being focused on the reason
why they (David Naylor Sarit Black & Paul Pai) got together in the first
place- to play music. After emerging from the ashes of their previous
incarnations, including the Kings of Hong Kong, the 3 happened to be in the same
place at the right time and DAVIDRBLACK was not so much formed but fell neatly
into place
So how come they actually get to play LA?
Well they were appearing with a band named Four Star Mary, who have recently
appeared at the Night & Day, when they the offer to play there next time
they were in the USA. was made. Expecting it to be with the usual good
intentions rather that a concrete offer they were pleasantly surprised to be
contacted indicating that there were a couple of support slots, and were they
still interested? The rest is history as they say, so tonight it's more of
a reality check and a promotional event for a spilt single with Stone Fusion, on
the 1000 Watt record label. This is a by product of the successful
bi-monthly Friday night club at the Bury Met where you pay only £4 to see at
least 4, sometimes 6. bands play and it appears as though a lot of people want
to see what going on, with packed nights being the norm.
So for tonight, its an appearance, along with other acts such a Stone Fusion, to
promote a split single that is being launched as part of the 1000Watt record
label, designed specifically to allow airings for bands that appear on the afore
mentioned Friday nights.
