I became mates with Dave from the age of about 14 , 1st met him at Locarno 77-78 . My 1st trip to Wigan was with Dave and Steve and he later introduced me to lot's of newer stuff in the early 80's . I dj'd for him recently at calf heath to raise funds for the burns unit after his accident with a petrol can . I will miss him and his stories an awful lot
