Tattoo much, much too young

DAVE LAZER:  Through my work, I often have to ‘rep’ at gigs by bands which are unsigned – and often unsignable. Just last week it was my honour and privilege to attend an all day ‘screamo’ event. For those of you not familiar with the genre, it basically consists of one guy singing a Maro...

DAVE LAZER: “Dave, are you coming carnival this year? You’ve got to come; it’s gonna be so, so sick”. No it’s not. It’s going to be a fucking nightmare. Between the ages of 15 and 17, I smoked skunk pretty much every day. Me, a guy called Patrick and a guy called Mike. Patrick and...
