SO IF YOU GOT A CLUB OR PUB, OR NEED A GOOD TIME ROCKIN' BAND FOR YA PARTY, WEDDING OR FUNERAL. DROP ME A LINE. ___________________________________________________________ ABOUT ME......ROCKABILLY GUITARIST FROM THE DEEP SOUTH....(of Wales) RAISED ON THE SOUND OF "CRAZY CAVAN" WHO WAS A NEIGHBOUR OF MINE FOR 30 YEARS. PLAYED IN "BREATHLESS" WITH CAVAN'S BROTHERS FOR 18 YEARS. LATER STARTED GROUPS "KATSQUIRE" & "THE KILLER DILLERS" CURRENTLY PLAYING FOR SOUTH WALES SUPER GROUP "THE RESERVOIR CATS" ALSO STILL WORKING ON MY OWN ALBUM CALLED "BOUND FOR TROUBLE" WHICH WILL BE AVAILABLE SOMETIME BEFORE I DIE!! & WHICH I'LL BE RELEASING UNDER THE NAME "LIVESTOCK DAVIES" IT CONTAINS A MIX OF VARIOUS STYLES OF ROCK N ROLL HEAVILY INFLUENCED BY MY FAVOURITES LIKE, CAVAN,FEATHERS,CASH,BURNETTE,SETZER ETC.

(TRACKS WILL APPEAR ON HERE WHEN THEY'RE FINISHED) ------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------------------------------------------- AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE IT SAY'S, I DONT WANT KIDS, BUT I CAN'T FIGURE OUT HOW YOU CHANGE IT. I'VE ACTUALLY GOT A FIANCE AND 2 LOVELY DAUGHTERS, ONE IS 19YRS, AND THE OTHER IS JUST 5YRS! MY LIFE REVOLVES AROUND THEM AND I'M VERY PROUD OF THEM ALL!!!!.....

FATS DOMINO, EDDIE BOND, ROLF HARRIS, ROD HULL & EMU, EARTHA KITT....I COULD GO ON! ----------------------------------------------------------- ON MY 35TH BIRTHDAY I GOT EXTREMELY DRUNK, BACKSTAGE AT A GIG (SOMEWHERE?...CAN'T REMEMBER!!) AND FELL INTO THE DRESSING ROOM OF BILL HALEY'S COMETS, WHO I SPENT AN HOUR WITH! THEY WERE MOST UNDERSTANDING OF THE STATE I WAS IN, AND, AS THEY WERE DUE ON STAGE, WERE DRESSED IN THERE FAMOUS TARTAN SUITS, AND PERFORMED ROCK AROUND THE CLOCK FOR ME!! GREAT BUNCH OF GUYS, AND STILL SHOWING THE YOUNGER GUYS HOW IT SHOULD BE DONE!!!!! ----------------------------------------------------------- I PLAYED AT THE WEDDING OF COMEDIAN BRIAN CONNOLLY WHICH WAS FILLED WITH HOUSEHOLD NAMES, HALE AND PACE, BOBBY DAVRO, LINDA LUSARDI EVEN SHAKIN' STEVENS WAS THERE, BUT THE HIGHLIGHT WAS WHEN I BUMPED INTO CHITTY CHITTY BANG BANG IN THE CARPARK! (HASN'T AGED A BIT) ----------------------------------------------------------- ALSO, BREATHLESS ROCKED THE BATMAN PREMIER IN FRANCE IN '86, AND GOT KIM BASSINGER AND MICKY ROURKE BOPPIN' ON THE DANCE FLOOR.IN '87 WE TOURED WITH "THE STRAY CATS" ON THE BLAST OFF TOUR. ----------------------------------------------------------- THERE AIN'T MANY I AIN'T MET FROM THE 50'S SCENE, UNFORTUNATLY I WAS NEVER ONE TO CARRY A CAMERA SO ALL I GOT IS MEMORIES! IF ANYONE OUT THERE HAS ANY OLD BREATHLESS OR KATSQUIRE PICS PLEASE GET IN TOUCH. BREATHLESS ARE NOW BACK ON THE ROAD AND IT WOULD BE GREAT TO SEE SOME OLD SHOTS AND SPEAK WITH OLD FRIENDS. -----------------------------------------------------------I 'M SURE THERE'S SOME PEOPLE LEFT TO MEET, BUT WITH SO MANY PLASTIC, SO CALLED CELEBS, I'M A BIT PUSHED TO THINK OF ANYONE....GOD'S PROBABLY QUITE A DUDE THOUGH...BET HE CANT PLAY ROCK N ROLL, HE'S PROBABLY INTO GOLF OR SUMMAT!!!
