Agree what is said about the management, Jonathon Shallit would have been good, he manages Mylene Klass and managed Charlotte church when she came to fame and then left him.

Just not been keen on what I heard about their management. Still, can't be worse than the management he's had for the last 4 years can it?

That IS a good question.

 

 

Let's hope they are going to be good for him.

Brief mention of D in yesterday's Telegraph in the review of the show 'Jest End' at the Jermyn theatre, a show

that makes fun of previous Wert End musicals.

I bet those who made fun of GWTW didnt even see it.

I do miss it :(

Roll on January and some news. Sue

It's not that far away :)

Just think, we may all be heading for some as yet undisclosed destination in a few weeks time, to hear

and see our favourite singer.

Chesney Hawkes (the one and only) has critisied the X factor in Gratzia magazine- this is part of what he says -

Speaking to Grazia magazine, the 'One and only' singer says shows like the X-Factor rob music of it's soul. He says " back in my day, an artist had to be multi-faceted in their abilities. I am from that era of rockers, like Nirvana, Red hot Chillis, where musicianship was key. These wannabee contestants and ill-educated music moguls are ruining the music culture with these shows. X-Factor is a contempt for art. My song "One and only" is one of the last trully great rock anthems. Will an X-Factor contestant produce suck lofty art? No!"

 

He also commented that only a few true talents have emerged from these shows. He says " Darius Danesh was incredible and an exception to the usual crap. A real artist. Zoe Birket was awesome too - she could have been our country's Aretha Franklin. But most have been diabolical.

i've never really liked Chesney Hawks, but i'm certainly loving his comment about Darius!Fantastic!

OMG cant wait till January......SO exited!! :yahoo:

I do like that :D

 

Thanks Preston :) it's brightened my day.

Thanks Preston. What a great comment. Isn't it good to read something positive . Sue

even if I see CH as a one hit wonder - I recall he was on the bill at Darius' first outing at Reading festival. - he sang I am the one and only(suprise suprise)..I am loving what he says.

Lovely to hear such a positive comment.

I always thought Chesney Hawks was an actor who sang that number in a film. I liked it and the film. Always good to hear positive things about D - and, of course, Chesney was absolutely right.

A poster over on Facebook says that her friend bumped into Darius in the studio the other day.... working on something for TV!! :cheer: (I just hope this is true this time and not another misunderstanding!! :D )

Great to have buzzjack back. I wonder if the previous report about him wanting to be in one of the serial shows could be true? I hope he was seen recording - just hope it is and that it's something I'd watch.

fingers crossed!! perhaps that was the news for january - god straws and clutching spring to mind...I am so desperate

Hope it's true. Any news is welcome. Sue

I just feel I have kept hearing about his album for 4 years and I'm a bit nervous about actually expecting it now
