The Dead Thread

[daza_1973]

Chas from Chas and Dave..

Seemed a decent fella.

Sad news - great musician.

Should be in the fact hunt thread, but Chaz and Dave actually opened for Led Zep at their famous 1979 Knebworth concert...

Was never into them but then a bloke from work talked me into going watching - excuse for a night out. Absolutely brilliant and must have seen them 5 or 6 times since. Was lucky enough to have a little chat with them a couple of times, nice blokes the pair of them, and Mick the Stick! Was supposed to be going again this year but his poor health meant it never happened.

RIP Chas

Also their playing features on Eminem’s “My Name Is” via sampling of a Labi Siffre song.

Sadly hadn't looked too well of late. Sad news, brilliant musician and try as you might it was impossible to ignore their catchy tunes.

RIP Chas.

They were meant to record the theme to Only fools and horses, on the day of the recording they couldn't make it so John Sullivan used his demo instead and the rest is history as they say.

Yep,saw them at the Southport Theatre years ago, just two normal fellas who enjoyed what they did, not up their own backsides and didn't leave until every autograph was signed,RIP Chas.
