Same. Dan has fitted right in and adds a new energy live. Weirdly I've ended up seeing him live in 6 different guises - in Watercress (supporting the Levs), solo, with Rev Hammer, in the Wonder Stuff, in Celtic Social Club and finally with the Levs. I've become an accidental stan! I hope Simon's doing OK. I'm still holding out for the Seismic Survey tour to be rescheduled from a fair few years back 😁 -

Wow YoaS. That is some extreme dentistry. Glad you are getting the mouth sorted. You will not know yourself once you get used to the dentures -

Hello fred, I'm afraid that the answer to your question is not going to be a short one! I am being fitted for new dentures. Unfortunately some crazy drug I took a fair few years ago led to every tooth in my head (bar one) becoming insanely painful (but not all teeth at the same time). This initially led to having to go to emergency dentists to get an extraction. They charged me a lot compared to the money that I had at that time. I even had to go to a dentist in Wolverhampton one Saturday morning, and that cost me more again. And then came a period of even worse financial health. It was at this point that if I went to the dentist it meant that me and my wife wouldn't be able to eat for 2 or 3 weeks, if I went to the dentist for another extraction. So, up against it, I pulled that tooth out myself with a pliers. Now you've got to remember, these teeth weren't loose. So, that extraction was a bit funky. Plus I never knew if I was going to rip my own jaw off whilst attempting to extract the tooth. I'm not a dentist. After getting through that, I decided to swerve the dentist with all the rest that followed. My very last one was a bastard. I had a back molar in pain. I was at my mom's house looking after her because she had dementia. So, I didn't have my pliers. I looked in the kitchen drawers, and there was an adjustable spanner of my dad's. It was the only implement that I could use. The good part was that i could increase the pressure on the spanners jaws using my own strength (Ooh, 'Get her', I hear you all say). lol Anyway, during the first attempt I slipped off the tooth with the tool, and it resulted with me collapsing to the floor in pain and writhing around like a man possessed The second attempt had me do the same again. I got the bastard on the third. That is why I need dentures. I've been going around for quite some time now with just one tooth in my head.. -
Don't think we'll likely see him on stage again. Every time I hold out a bit of hope he'll pop up, but gradually accepting that's prob not gonna happen. Dan's doing a sterling job tbf
