Chas and Dave. The name says it all. Even before hearing them, you know what you’re going to get. To some the duo are a dirty words. But is that view based on musical preference or merely peer pressure?
Performing their annual Christmas Jamboree at the O2 Indigo the Cockney duo revved up a packed audience with their slowly-dying tradition of London ditties and Rockney tunes.
The last time I saw the redoubtable East London duo was two years ago on a farewell tour which had been prompted by bassist Dave Peacock’s grief at the passing of his wife.
With a new generation of listeners taking notice of this duo due to the announcement by Pete Doherty's that he is a fan I really hoped to see them up to the hype.
