Dave Allon has become an integral part of the /40 album project. He's played drums on 'Tories' and we made a whole album together in the form of '12/40: BEASTS' from 2018 as well as providing the hyper-kinetic drums on many tracks from the new album. He's just a brilliant, gregarious friend and tells a wonderful tale. He's recently been part of the orchestra for a production of Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds, from which he's still recovering. ULLLLLAAAAA!
In the chat we solve climate change, discuss The Alanis Morissette Paradox and talk about the day our friend Stevie D died. This episode's word is: POSTIVITY, the practice of being or tendency to be positive or optimistic in attitude.
