The Dave Clark Five Quotes
When I called it a day with the DC5, I decided not to do any interviews, because once you decide to stop, you should stop. There's too many people who are always doing reunion tours. I refused to do any chat shows. I didn't want to talk about the past, and live in the past. I was quite happy when I did my musical project "Time", to go on and talk about "Time", and talk about the past with great relish. But, at the same time I could talk about something I was doing now. I didn't want to live in the past. I'm not ashamed of the past. I'm very proud of it. Now, bringing out the album on CD of course, I'm happy to talk about it.

I don't know, but I mean they were around. You had some weird things happen. (laughs) Some weird and some funny. I always remember one of our security men, Captain Sherman, who passed away a few years ago. We landed somewhere and we'd take the whole floor of the hotel. Apparently this young fan had booked into the hotel the night before and hid in the shower for 24 hours. But, it wasn't my room. It was Captain Sherman's. He must've been in his 60s then. He was quite on the big side. So, he went into the bathroom, undressed, took his teeth out, pulled the curtain back and the girl collapsed. (laughs) It was funny when you think about it. The poor kid must've had a seizure. They did crazy things. They'd pay the police. I was asleep and I felt the thick covers come back. I looked around and it was a naked girl. What had happened was, she'd paid off the guards. And, the whole thing was a set-up.
