Frequently Asked Questions About the Band

Picture Gallerys....

Back to the Start

Dave the Lighter was one of the original SHY at the CHEMIST, but spent the intervening years in a Muddled & Skunky Drying Out Home.

"I used to be SHY, then SAD...""...Now I just don't know!"

He perfected lighting solos well before most lighters learn how to cause their first mains failure. He is the one others look to, and reflect off, on the circuit.
"I am a Mysteron...."
His original version of 'Dance of the Mysterons' was seen as a huge shock for mankind, and is now looked upon as Lighting Industry Standard, and part of any good lighting or arsonist's skools curriculum.
Ooooh!..... Aaaarhhhh!
He has the ability to rap while dancing, and is half of the band's  Ker-Rapping Crew.

He has also taken to taking the main vocal on odd numbers since his infamous fronting of the band during Mr.Nova's absence in 2001.

"Get over it....."
An accident involving the use of baco-foil and chewing gum as a fuse, sparked the now infamous 'jump-dance-the spark' sequence he brings to every show...

Ker..runch

Warning:
Smoking near Dave the Lighter during a SAD gig can result in serious damage, and none of his performance should be emulated outside controlled circumstances...

Dave's career peaked one Bank Holiday in front of 300 bikers, when he succeeded in fusing a whole phase to the fuse board, resulting in everything (including beer pumps) becoming in-operable.

"Man, I feel like a woman etc etc...."

During 2001, Dave was put in bids for yet more lights at the Millenium Dome, to make the band "Even more explosive....", and succeeded in securing the services of a new band member, Mini-Dave.

"I just love it when things go wrong...."

He is also the MrFixit of the band and in fact has saved their bacon on numerous occasions, the most notable being in November 2001, when he had to carry out an engine transplant to the transit van.

Dave loves nothing better than to find at least one cable looking like this at the end, (or during) a gig:

Crackle crackle, arggh eeeek!

"Does it ever end????"
If you have ever been a victim of a Dave the Lighter lighting or vocal solo, or are a bulbing (not budding) lighter, and want some tips, you can now e-mail him at SAD at the CLINIC by clicking this icon:
