Hey Darren. Noticed you have Mosfest on your gig list. Is that Mossley in Congleton? I'm gonna come over to your 3 chords night soon. Cheers!
24/07/2008 - Congleton

dp says:   Hi Phil,

it's Mossley near Oldham ... not sure the venue yet, though the word Luzley rings a bell!

3 chords is a top night fella, please do ...

cheers, dp :-)

1/07/2008 - BLACKBURN

dp says:   dare I say, as a self confessed fragile fella, who is also as someone in Glasgow put it "a political gobshite", that my shout is for both love and resolutions ... there's a poetry book to be written here, let's call it Urban Love Poetry! :-) cheers, dp

Hello Darren, just had to say you were hilarious at Clitheroe festival! Great music and the crack was superb, many thanks.
PS WE DO NOT POINT AT PLANES!
24/05/2008

dp says:   I'm still buzzing on the Clitheroe outing ... surreal and brilliant, what a fantastic occasion, playing two sets and although I was pretty exhausted, I felt like playing all night ... we certainly had the atmosphere
hope to see you again soon, I'll really look forward to it,
thanks lots, dp :-)

Hi Darren,
Just to say that we really enjoyed your gig in Blackpool supporting John Cooper Clark.
We thought you played a blinder filling in for John (kind of indefinitely) till he turned up!

Also, thanks for playing your version of 'Love Will Tear Us Apart' - brilliant, please record it soon!
22/05/2008 - Lancashire

dp says:   Lovely to see you both, thanks for being there ... I feared the worst, never easy playing to Clarkey's crowd, especially in such a spacious venue. In the end, I really appreciated the long set, it made me work for my badges.

A little addition: after the show, I came out of the venue carrying all my gear, and spent over an hour walking around Blackpool before I eventually found my car ... doh!

Hi Darren
The Stamps gig went down well - i'm not sure if the burghers of Crosby were quite prepared for the full Poyzer. There were certainly a few open mouths amongst the throng.

Hope the dash to Grasmere was worthwhile

See you soon fella
22/05/2008 - Garswood

dp says:   Crosby was wild wasn't it, in that old Sunday all day piss up kinda way. I was well up for that one, big fun!

I arrived Grasmere with 25 mins to set up ... then fell asleep in the car on the way home ... the cold, the neck ache ... who said rock'n'roll was glamorous??

lovely to see ya both,
hope you enjoyed Attila, he's superb
thanks lots, dp x

Helen
Hi Darren
I saw you at the Boardwalk in Sheffield with the Nimmo Brothers the other week and thought your music was great. Thought you would have been much better without the harmonica player though (sorry!)Have visited your web site and had a listen to the PFF stuff and just wish it was available to download (especially Someone For Me)- it sounds great!
Keep up the good work and hope to see you in Sheffield again soon.
12/05/2008 - Sheffield, England

dp says:   Hi Helen, thanks for lovely message ... would you believe it I came away from that gig thinking it was just 'ok', so I'm well chuffed you enjoyed it. Nice honesty about the harmonica, appreciated ... we do that improvised without rehearsal, it's a 'for the moment' thing and maybe it doesn't always work as well as it could.

The PFF tracks and line-up will have their day I hope, sooner rather than later

Thanks again, hope to see you soon, I'm back at The Boardwalk later this month

We chatted at the Focus gig in St Helens the other week, and we're hoping to catch you again at Stamps, Crosby, with Attilla the Stockbroker.
Take care fella - see you soon
7/05/2008 - Garswood, Wigan

dp says:   hi,hope to see you at Crosby, Attila's always a great show and that's a cracking little bar at Stamps
it's a prompt 6.30pm stage time for me on that one - hope that's not too early!
cheers, Darren

Pete

Debbie & Darren
Wow.Saw you for the 1st time on Friday night supporting "The Saw Doctors", really enjoyed your songs, hope to catch up with you again soon.
27/04/2008 - West Yorkshire

dp says:   Hi Debbie & Darren,
Thanks lots for your kind comments, I really enjoyed and appreciated the occasion, The Saw Doctors are absolutely fantastic,
Very Best, Darren :-)

Penguin
Really enjoyed your support slot for the Saw Doctors at Holmfirth last night - 'Love Will Tear Us Apart' in particular was a joy to behold!

Will try to catch you live again a.s.a.p.
26/04/2008 - Royton

dp says:   Thanks Dunc, I took a chance with LWTUA because it's a quiet song and during such a manic full on occasion, I put my trust in the sound engineer being able to get the quieter guitar 'picking' to cut through.

He did a great job, and for me to be able to play a set with different and varied dynamics makes it a much more rewarding experience.

See ya soon, cheers, dp :-)

keir
Hi Darren, Saw you in Holmfirth supporting the Saw Doctors, great performance, great lyrics keep up the good work.
26/04/2008 - Sheffield

25/04/2008

dp says:   Hi Bill, thanks for kind comments ... I too enjoyed enjoyed both nights thoroughly, the company of two world class bands, and the pleasure of very respectable audiences to play to. It hasn't always been this good, so am making the most of it!
cheers, Darren :-)

Gerard Watkinson
Saw you in St Helens (pre Focus) with my son. Really enjoyed the show - we were right in front of you against the stage - TERRIFIC !!!
25/04/2008 - Home is: Eccleston, Chorley, Lancs

dp says:   Thanks Gerard for your very kind comments ... it was a really fab show last night, and for me not only were the audience fantastic, Focus were very complimentary towards me, especially Thijs van Leer. For a 'circuit' songwriter / musician like myself, that is a pretty special kinda compliment :-)
thanks and best, c ya next time, dp

Cathy & Alan
Hope to see you soon in Blackpool with JCC!Have you recorded that stunning version of 'Love Will Tear Us Apart'yet?
16/04/2008 - Lancs

dp says:   yes as it happens, there's a Poyzer, Fluff and Farrell version, not for total public listening just yet, but you can hear the gist of it at www.poyzer.com/pff
c ya in Blackpool, dp x

George Milburn
It's been a while Darren - but I keep tabs on you through Dave Hiett! I got a mandolin from Jo my partner for Christmas - persuade me to bring it to your place for a jam. It would be good to see you and catch up. John Homer and I compiled a CD titled Savage Amusement - I'll send you a copy.
16/04/2008 - 99 Manor Road, Medomsley, Consett, DH8 6QL

dp says:   George, matey :-) it must be summer soon, outdoor busking, a little beverage, you're welcome any time ... Dave Hiett, aka The Weavils, most excellent, enjoyed a little open mic shindig with them in Northwich recently ... love a copy of the cd please, usual address, dp x

Tony Speight
Thanks for another great performance at the Platform, Morecambe, Darren. A great night - the third time I have seen you. Wishbone - loved the Reggae Phoenix! What did you think?

Shawn Mullins - 'Shimmer' can be found on two of his albums - 'Eggshells' & 'Soul's Core'. Another great song on Eggshells is 'Where's Johnny'. Enjoy.

Kind regards - Tony
13/04/2008 - Lancashire!

dp says:   a pleasure Tony, an outstanding gig for everyone ... I especially enjoyed WA probably more than at any other time, I was really up for their show last night ... and yes, whether it's reggae kicks or drum loops, they manage to keep it fresh and exciting on each and every tour

I actually know Shawn Mullins' 'Lullaby' ... it got a lot of play on an internet station I used to listen to, Radio IO Acoustic ... I can acquire 'Shimmer' on I-Tunes, but not from the Eggshells album ... wondering if that's a more 'acoustic' version? I'll download these and see how they work for solo acoustic versions

thanks again mate, always a pleasure and a privilege to get kind responses after wonderful shows

You still playing? Sounds like you got it together recently ... hope you still got those splendid tunes in your soul dear friend, keep well, Darren :-)
