I am a huge fan of Dare ever since I first heard them at the Golden Groves, Rossett. At that time I was sitting in another room. In the background I could hear singing that just had an immediate affect on me and so I just had to investigate. Darren is a brilliant singer/songwriter/musician.
I have seen Darren and Richard at The Mulberry in Conway on many occasions and also the Fountain Bar Llandudno. When they split and Darren went on tour with Thin Lizzy I thought that would be the end of Dare so I was really excited when quite by accident I found they were back and performing at the Tivoli in Buckley.
With regard to the show last Friday, Darren was his usual amazing self. I was a little disappointed in that I felt that the music seemed to drown the singing (the same with the supporting band) although I think it got better. I loved all the songs that were sung and Sacred Ground another brilliant album.
