Exclusive! Catching up with iconic flamboyant Slade guitarist Dave Hill ahead of their London gig
Nov 30 2018
If the name Slade does not resonate with you, their songs certainly will. 45 Years since the release ‘Merry Christmas Everybody’ Slade will play in London at ULU (London University) on 21 December 2018 and I am so thrilled to attend this gig, because Slade, like many bands from the Sixties and Seventies, are absolutely incredible live. I have caught up with their flamboyant talented guitarist Dave Hill to chat about the good old days when Slade had 20 top singles of which 6 were No-1 smash hits plus 6 smash albums. We discussed Elvis, The Beatles, and how Slade have become a firm favourite in the hearts of pop fans all over the world. Dave is such a charmer! He’s got all the star qualities that can keep you in show business forever. He also talked about his Autobiography that covers the ups and downs of his amazing life. Read this interview as it’s really cool, in fact one of the coolest I have ever conducted.

From keeping the kids quiet with an iPad on a long car journey, to tearing them away from the Xbox when it’s time for dinner, we can’t escape the fact that technology has changed the way we raise our children. But while tech has made some things easier for us parents, it’s also made others even more challenging. Not only is the latest ‘must have’ tech for your child not cheap, but there have been studies that indicate that increased screen time can negatively affect children’s physical and mental health. Recently, Legal & General surveyed 1,000 parents in the UK to get their opinions about the positives and negatives of raising a child with so much readily available smart tech and the findings were really interesting.

Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again is finally out on DVD and I am glad I can share my interview with Andy García Andy García who plays Fernando in the popular sequel.

Here We Go Again Andy García plays Cher’s long-lost lover with great elegance.
