Wow, just surfing my memories of days following the Jaybirds around Nottingham and came across this. Could it be ‘the’ Dave Quickmire who’s base drum pedal kept breaking? I remember making him a link out of a thicker piece of metal at tech college whilst on day release as an apprentice car mechanic. He apparently fitted my link and it actually worked.
Hello Anthony,
Yes that’s the same David Quickmire. He is a true legend. I loved being in a band with him.
If you search for me on YouTube, you will find some videos of us. Look for As Long As I’m Moving and Brass In Pocket.
