Dale Farrow - Guitars, Programming, Vocals
How long have you been playing in bands? - I started at the age of 14 playing in school punk bands with ridiculous names but it wasn't until I was 17 that I ever played a gig. This was with a band called "Reflex" (there must have been 100's of bands with that name!) at Ufford Village Hall.
Previous Bands - Of those that I can remember, Rat Salad, Black Ice, Reflex, 1926, The Passions (very briefly), Smirk, S.I.G. March To The Grave
What are you currently listening to the most? - X-Ray Spex, The Stranglers, Penetration, Kaiser Chiefs, XTC, Marshall Crenshaw and browsing MySpace you come across some great stuff and I particularly like the work of Karen Van Ark, Heather Slater as both herself and also as "Pale Heather", The Starberks are pretty good too and Out of the Gray an accoustic rock band from Bolton are damn fine as well.
Top Three Songs - "Fantastic Planet of Love" - Marshall Crenshaw, "Oh No It's You" - The Passions, "Relentless" - The Stranglers
Top Three Albums - For all sorts of different reasons it would have to be "Head Over Heels" by The Cocteau Twins, "Sheepfarming in Barnet" by Toyah & "Suite XVI" by The Stranglers
Top Three Male Singers - Kirk Brandon (Theatre of Hate, Spear of Destiny), Robert Smith (The Cure) & Paul Roberts (The Stranglers)
Top Three Female Singers - Elizabeth Frazer (The Cocteau Twins), Pauline Murray (Penetration) & Claudia Brucken (Propaganda)
Top Three Guitarists - Johnny Marr (The Smiths), John McGeogh (Magazine, Banshees, PiL etc), Fred Purser (Penetration) and Brian Setzer (Stray Cats) - I know that's 4 but John McGeogh unfortunately passed away so I thought I'd be allowed 3 that were still with us!!
Best Gig Ever - Usually the last Stranglers gig I've been to!
Which Band Would You Have Most Liked To Have Seen - Penetration (still might as they're now playing again)
Which Band Would You Most Like To Play With - Siouxsie and the Banshees or now that they've started playing again, Penetration.
