Finally. #6 sorry, busy weekend.
Boy, is this a high traffic list these days!
DikMik
( audio generator 1970-74, now painting and decorating )
" I was notorious for leaving the band, and when I did, Del took over.
We had similar roles, providing the sound effects. Though I think my
main role in the band was supplying the pychedelic substances.
I reckon I was probably out of my head on that stuff for three years
continually. It might have helped the inventiveness of the music, but I
don't think it improved the live side of it. Sometimes we were abysmal!
Our philosophy was to get as many people together as possible and have
a good time. We were merely a catalyst for an event. However, the
straight press was always trying to put us down, an excess of sex and
drugs and rock'n'roll.
I was never a serious musician, so when it stopped being full-time fun
and started getting serious and business-minded, then I left. I had
other things to do with my time. I've not done anything musically
since."
Well, with Terry and DikMik painting and decorating in London, I'm
wondering if I should get my living room done ;->
