Thanks David you`re a star xx
Oh my goodness, doesn’t that just show the fabulous kind & generous nature of David – doing the Sunshine Festival so that his fans who have already purchased tix won’t be disappointed!! Hats off to you Mr. Essex I wish I cld be in the country for this Festival, but I’m still thrilled to have your Oct tour to look forward to
Hi David, sounds like Gibraltar calling was good! Driving through cloudy Essex today, and, Gonna Make You Are A Star was on radio! My favourite! Hurry up 20/20 Love Sally (Essex) x
Hi David, Gibraltar’s calling sounded good, and such a huge following as always! Driving through cloudy Essex today, changed stations on radio, and there you were “Gonna Make You A Star”, my Favourite! Hurry up 2020! Love Sally (Essex)x
Fantastic show on Sunday, thank you for entertaining us so well and for making the trip to Gib. Please come back soon xx
Hi David, after walking through the thunderstorms and flooded streets of sunny Gibraltar and standing soaked to the skin for 4 hours to see you in the classic venue you were most definitely worth it, you were more then on top form you were fantastic as always! So many people wanted to see you but could not get in, you most definitely should be put on the main stage next time you would certainly get the crowd rocking on! thank you David.
Hi David i Just want to say Thankyou so much for the signed photo for my friend Jean. She is really poorly at the moment and the photo really cheered her up. So Thankyou once again it’s much appreciated. X
Looks like you had a great time in Gibraltar this evening. Shame I couldn’t make it, but the pics & videos I’ve seen are fabulous as always. Hope you all enjoyed it. Safe travels home. Xxx
Hi all i see you havent replied to my query regarding the sunshine festival next Year. Apologies if you feel what i was saying was negative, it wasnt meant in that way at all. There is so much controversy surrounding whats going on. They are still insistant David is the headline act, yet youve replied twice that he isnt. And not answering my query it makes it look very weird as to whats going on. August is a busy time for most of us with kids, it would be nice if we could have some idea if David intends on doing this or not.
Not at all Lizzie. Unfortunately details were released before contracts were signed. David is conscious that tickets have been bought so has agreed to do the Sunhine festival. Details will be put on the website when David is ready.
The sunshine festival are still showing David as being the first headliner for their festival in August 2020.
Enjoy Gibraltar on Sunday..we will be Missing You x
Hi David
Fab news about the tour BUT we really need those Dates ASAP so we can all plan our trips! Not to mention the saving up part to make sure we don’t miss any!
Love to you and yours
Jenny (Basingstoke)

No, David won’t be performing at The Sunshine Festival as he’ll be touring later in the year. I’m sure the organisers will be able to help you.

Hi, I have sent a message to you to ask if it was at all possible for a signed card to be sent to a lovely lady called Paula who will be 70 very soon. She would be absolutely thrilled and it would make her day.
I haven’t received a reply and wondered if you had received my message.
Thank you so much
Linda
No I don’t think we have.
If you can leave an address on here, David would be more than happy to send a signed photo.
Hello David, Hope you had a lovely birthday and were totally spoilt. I would like to thank you for a wonderful show April this year in Bournemouth. It was worth watching the other acts just to see you for a short time. I was the devoted lady who through the lit up red rose onto the stage just as you were walking off. I was so pleased when you picked it up….. I hope that you kept it. I am so looking forward to your tour next year. I could hardly believe it when my daughter Katie told me that you would be touring again, she is 24 years old and loves you almost as much as I do……………. I hope you read this message and it makes you smile, until we see and meet again, lots of love and hugs Shirley and Katie XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Hi,
I saw recently on Instagram of all places that David was doing a concert in Gibraltar, it was then on Twitter posted by the organisers ,which David then retweeted a few hours later. My question is,why is nothing ever posted here on the website first? Surely it’s inevitable David’s fans visit here first,especially those with no Instagram or Twitter accounts,it’s not the first time this has happened, Legends,Elf, Potters,all were posted elsewhere before any information was posted here,David’s website. As of yet,still nothing here regarding the Gibraltar Calling Weekend! Yes a lot off fans rely on word of mouth,but not all. It’s stupid to think none of you here know what David is doing next,so why is nothing posted until it’s too late to obtain decent tickets or too late in general? And generally after most fans have gained information elsewhere,isn’t this the whole point of having a website? For the fans?
David’s a bit slow in telling us unfortunately!
Your point has been taken.
David is more or less retired now and wishes to spend more time with his family. He has never and still doesn’t take his fans for granted.
Can anyone help me please? Heard a song sung by David on SILVER DREAM RACER film… Looking for Someone… does it feature on an album apart from the Soundtrack to the film? If so which album? Thank you. Cathy Reevell
It doesn’t, sorry.
It was wonderful when you brought your show ALL THE FUN OF THE FAIR to the Wycombe Swan Theatre where l work… As l was a 1970s girl, l LOVED the show! Still do! Still play the CD now! I was also honoured when your friend Jon Conway who was one of the Wycombe Swan’s Directors, asked if l would make the cake for your shows opening night in the West End! When l asked Jon what had he got in mind… he said ‘oh just a fairground on the cake’! And so there was! And you liked the cake and the working carousel etc which adorned it, as did the rest of the cast and crew! Thank you David for all the music, films and shows you have given us all over the years. And here’s to many more! Cathy Reevell.
Thank you for your kind words Cathy. I of course remember the cake. Keep well – David
Just on train home and spotted “Gibraltar calling’ wishing it could have been Glastonbury Instead – a bit closer !! Still I am sure it will be fab s always – when is David on stage does anyone know yet? as it is a long way to go but I imagine lots of us will be there if we can
Xx
David is appearing on Sunday 8th September
Hi David, Just wondering, after watching Harry Redknapp on Piers Morgan, that as he grew up in Canning Town, and was born same year as you, if you & The Lads played football together?! Roll on 2020 – Looking forward to your tour! Love Sally X (Essex)
David played football with Frank Lampard Senior but probably not Harry.
A shot in the dark… however would David recall playing at Savvas Club in Usk? Late 80’s / early 90’s. My mum used to work there along side her husband and was telling me about the place. So I was wondering would David remember it too.
Yes he does, he had some good shows there.
Please could you tell me how to get a signed birthday card from David Essex to my daughter many thanks
Hello Glenda, if you send a card to D E Management, PO Box 1018, HORSHAM, RH12 9TQ
David will sign it for you. He’d be happy to send her a signed photo if you’d prefer, just leave an address on here as it won’t be published.
Kind regards
D E Management
Excellent article in today’s MCN. I remember being outside the Dominion on opening night. I’m shocked it was 40 years ago, seems more recent than that!!
Hi Mate please dont announce tour dates till I come back off my hols in July ,cant trust Soo to cope as I’ve always done it b4! Hehe . Happy Birthday to Joseph 14 today where has that time gone ! Love ya Cazz and Soo xxx
Looking forward to the Tour dates 2020
No time to retire yet Mr Essex
Hi there,
My mum is a huge fan of David’s but unfortunately hasn’t been able to go to any concerts or shows for over 10 years due to personal circumstances. It’s a big birthday coming up for her the end of this year and I was wondering if David is doing any shows, gigs this year perhaps I can take her too, or any tours are coming up in the near future? I was also wondering if theres an email or address for David’s fan club? Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but worth a shot, Thanks in advance, sophie
Hello Sophie, there are no plans for the end of the year at the moment. Any news will be on this website or David’s Twitter @DavidEssexNews
Thanks again, David Much appreciated they will over the moon x
Dear David,
Thank you for kindness in signing for my friend Larissa, safely received back up north
She will be over the moon!
Have a lovely, relaxing summer following on from Legends and I hope you’ll be nodding your head to another creative project soon. Massive hint 😉
Take care in the meantime,
Paula
Thanks for clarifying Will be watching this space! Many Thanks to David and co xx
Thanks David – Chuffed to bits x
Is it true David going to do another solo tour in September 2020( as seen on FB). Really hope so & PLEASE do Wolverhampton. Xx
Yes
Thank you for the brilliant night at Potters, thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Great atmosphere & lovely to meet up with Friends. I’ve ended up back in hospital, overdid it a tad, but it was so worth it, & I’d do it again in a heartbeat, as I know, ” it’s gonna be alright”. Please say thanks to the band & will look forward to seeing you all again soon.. Again thanks for everything.
Best wishes to all
TRACEY. XX
Is there any truth in the rumour that there’s going to be a mini tour Sept 2020??? Or is this just wishful thinking ???
Yes
Just got back from potters. Great show but two things David refused a friend of mine a selfie (twice) once when leaving the restaurant and also outside. Also did not do a encore which was a shame. Lovely to see him eating in the restaurant with his adoring fans at dinner and breakfast. Will wait to see where he is performing next year excited
Hi David what a great night at Potters you and the band where amazing an what great news you announced, have started saving already can’t wait exciting times.
Thank you xx
Hi David well what a great show at potters. Really enjoyed the show and the resort was amazing .
And thank you for answering my question about opera ha ha …..
Also please say a hello to your keyboard player from the lady who had trouble parking a fiat 500 in a bus space with loud music blaring out ha ha he is a cutie ..
Hello David,
Outstanding performance as Always!
The Band are incredible – Gerry “O’Moffatt’s” choreography
The best!
Loved choice of songs – Potters is the place to be, on a Sunday Night!
And, with West Ham’s win, this weekend, Another Glorious, Good Day!
Love Sally XX
David ,A magical time at Potters .It’s yes to a tour from me!Mary
Have fun at Potters -We will be missing you x
Well ….
Who says no such thing as universal magic……..
Dear David
I was stressing for ages about potters and having to go on my own.
Every day, during my meditation practice I set my intention … please please universe let something amazing happen help me to get my sister Caterina a room … ha ha I even bargained with the universe …I’ll give up this ,that and the other all important things that mean a lot to me …. ummmm to no avail so I resigned my self to …o well not this time and so on good Friday during my meditation I said ok universe I’m not going to go I dont feel totally comfortable . I’m going to give my place up and donate it to someone as I didn’t want to waste the booking . It had been part d and just seemed silly to waste it.
so I thought ok on Tuesday I’m going to either paste here or your twitter page or potters and say can I donate my booking I wanted to give to someone who maybe wanted to see you but either couldn’t afford to or just missed the opportunity to purchase a ticket .so that was it mind made up ..
Sorry David essex see you another time have a great performance and night and wishing you well . Ha ha …
Anyway on the Saturday was at Caterina house in Peterborough preparing a typical southern napoletan Easter dish so hands full of eggs Parmesan cheese pepper pasta mixing all up , phone starts ringing and I look was just about to ignore it when suddenly I felt wave pass through me and I thought answer It … It’s potters resort And it was. They had a room come available that morning and would I like it …
Yes …
wow booked and payed it so now Caterina is coming with me much to her delight and mine so you see… power of disire ha ha I’m so happy and want to thank all here who kindly asked me to join them if I got lonely …thank you so very much .
So see you Sunday xxx
Just wanted to tell David that he is still an amazing songwriter and performer – I have been a huge fan since 1972 I was 11 – I am now 58 and the song If I Could is still one of my favorite songs today – such conversational lyrics – and a beautiful meldy – you should have had a lot more Grammy nominations over the years – but we all know that is so pol itical – live you David – don’t stop what you’re doing – I live in Florida now hope you and your family are well – Thank You for 50 years of awesome music – Marie
snap, I’m 58, saw him first when I was 11 in stoke on Trent.♥
THANK YOU David for a fabulous show @ Bournemouth last night, you and the band looked like you had really good time and we certainly did. Looking forward to Potters – How lucky are we that you keep on doing shows – love and appreciate all that you do x

Hi guys again I’m like a penny, went to see the legends tour last night, what a fantastic night!! You where even more fantastic than ever smokey les mcewin Bay city rollers suzi quotro how does she do that.?but you was the star David, so funny and your voice has just got stronger didn’t want you to end at all,shut your eyes and back to the 70s,you signed a birthday card for me to give my sister she sobbed her heart out with disbelief I want to thank you for that so much, I spoke to you last time about trying to get the i’ll be missing you final tour CD /DVD and told you that David from Nyquest had put off doing anymore till October but seems like they have gone into liquidation for the 3rd time as much as I have to say I would give my right arm to have it fans and I are gutted we won’t only saying it to maybe not using that company
Hi David just want to say what a fab evening it was last night at Nottingham, thank you for the memories, it’s a shame it wasn’t longer.and thank you to your wonderful band, see you in future events xx
Nottingham last night just one word WOW!! roll on Liverpool!…x
Another fantastic night in Newcastle !! thanks so much xx
Brilliant night at Legends Live in Brighton last night and lovely to see your family sitting in the row behind us x
I wonder if anyone can help us at Shanklin & District History Society. We know that David stayed in Shanklin for six weeks during the filming of That Will Be The Day. Does anybody know the address of where he stayed? Any help much appreciated, Mark.
Hello Mark, he rented a house in Binstead, Isle Of Wight. David doesn’t remember the address, sorry.
David, thank you so much for your performance in Cardiff tonight. You and the band were amazing as always. You were such a gentleman to us after whilst we waited for you to come out. I know you were only kidding last year, but I can dream of riding pinion with you. By the way we weren’t following you afterwards, we saw you dive into the Park Hotel. Perhaps it was just to get away from us, but Sylvia was going for her taxi and I was headed for my train home. Until next time, God Bless XXXX
Amazing night in Leeds you certainly “Shine Like a diamond” xx
Sylvia and I will be in the front row at Cardiff tonight. So very much looking forward to it. You and all the band give such a wonderful performance. It has been a joy growing up alonside you even though sadly we’re like Ships That Pass In The Night. Rock On.
XXXXXXX
Amazing fun time last night at legends live Manchester, Thank you for the memories David x
Hi guys I thought you might want to know, for 6/7 months I’ve been trying to get the i’ll be missing you final tour CD dvd, off David meehen at Nyquest to no avail, I have just received another email saying it may be October before there presumably printing some more then, that would mean I’ve been waiting for over 12 months, he is arguing I had refund but he told me he was getting more in so stupid me paid again then had no refund but I have proof anyway that I couldn’t care about, I know I’m not the only one who has desperately been trying to get this, I know I would want to know if it was me, it has really upset me because it was a very personal reason for this wich I know I won’t ever get now and other fans of David’s, I apologise for going on as I have but it’s upset me..got to say this c’mon wolves on Sunday
Really sorry to hear that Pat. I don’t know if we can help at all but will certainly make some enquiries.
Kind regards
D E Management

Hi, how much notice do you need to send a signed Birthday card please? My Sister would lurve one…
Many Thanks
Di
As long as David is around to sign it, anytime. We can always send it back to you.
Message to Anna – echoing Tracey’s and Caz’s replies – you are never alone at a DE show, always someone to share a tale or two with!
“Here we are all together” sums it up nicely eh David? All of us here together, by plane and car and train, we’ll make it all the same, we’ll catch his smiling eyes, we’ll laugh until we cry – what a day, what a time ……… Don’t worry Anna, just look out for the gang at the front of the stage.
I stopped taking my wonderful hubby to tours years ago so I could use the money I saved on his ticket to go to more shows ! The things we do eh? You could almost write a book!!
Can’t wait to see you and the band on stage again ……… not long now, counting the days.
Sally from Somerset X
.

Hello David
Hope your well
I’ve just provisionally booked for potters unfortunately when they first called me to book for 2 I was in New Zealand so with the12 hr time difference It was awquard to get through and book . However today sitting in my car waiting for my ayvedic appointment I suddenly thought about you and potters so on impulse phoned them thinking they will be sold out of places rooms and tickets to my amazment they had one room left so I was stunned thinking wow thanking universe god whomever thank you …..thought I’d treat my sister Catrina too however whist I was put on hold channel the receptionist/booking lady says I, really sorry only have place for one person noooooooo so I was desperately trying to get Catrina in can we share a single bed can you put a cot in the room we can top and tail ha ha ha in my head I’m panicking please please please say yes so off she goes trying to fit Caterina in . And I’m sitting panacking how do I go on my own it’s a 5 course dinner then a disco then breakfast along with the use of facilities … she returned with bad the room they have can’t accommodate a cot …
She kindly held the ticket for 48 hours . So now I have to bite the bullet and think it through driving from Essex to potters that’s ok no Biggy but then I’m going to be there alone sitting at a single table having dinner ha ha then watching you which in itself is ok as there will be 100s of lovely ladies there .so I’ll just mingle in between the crowd breakfast I’m ok with I think ha ha ..during the day after check in I can have a walk about do my meditation and yoga maybe visit the spa I don’t really know but I’m in a dilemma because I don’t want to stand out and look like a sad person ha ha or worst a stalker or even strange so if anyone else is on there own and are braver then me please let me know I’d feel better I really want to go so if you happen to see this one person on there own I’m not strange I promise …ha ha I will think this through more likely I will just call back bite the bullet and pay that’s it then have to do it …..ha ha ha you see David the things we do to see you preform ha ha ha
Hi Anna, you’re never alone at a DE concert! My friend & i met a lovely lady last year that was on her own & she teamed up with us. If you want your more than welcome to sit at our table with us. All you need to do is contact Potters, give them my name ask to sit with us & they will call me to confirm.
Feeling forgotten Boohoo xxxx
Hope you had a lovely day Cazz
Was listening to the previews for the new Robin Hood movie and noticed that the intro music – baseline – sounded a lot like your song “Rock On”. If you get millions from the lawsuit I get half . Just kidding…. looked it up but have not seen anything that you have a proved it just thought you might be interested after all these years you still rock on.
Where was the Video for the David Essex song a winters
tale filmed?
It was in the West Country, on the edge of Dartmoor
One more I grieve for the loss of site of u x that’s enough I’m off x
Oh and selfishly I’d like to mention it’s my birthday 2nd of March so bit older when we see u in Cardiff Nottingham 02 Birmingham and Bournemouth mate xx special mentions are always gobsmacking hehe cheeky as always eh!!
Hi Mate Hope u Sue Sonny and Levi good , just a thought after radio reading between the lines I think a little tour say 10/15 dates would do u God mate not to mention the medical benefits to me and Soosie hehe Bless u anyway x
Nice Surprise on Radio 2 this afternoon. Cool choice of music, Especially Baker Street. Was good to hear Lamplight as always. Great interview, love the 70’s, and trip down memory lane in April with Legends Tour! Rock On David! Love Sally (Essex) x
Hi I was wondering if there are any
plans to play in Scotland in the future?
Thanks
Elizabeth
Hi Guys, has Glasgow now been added as an extra date for this Year’s Legends tour? Only it’s not being advertised anywhere! I know it wasn’t on the original listings & the arena were telling us that Tony Denton promotions hadn’t approached them for the tour to go there this Year.
Any info would be welcome.
Thanks Tracey.x
So sorry, I think as David has always gone there with his own personal tours we totally forgot the Legends tour doesn’t. Sorry to disappoint
Hi David just to let you know that my beloved cat Twinkle passed away. She was a good friend and saw me through some dark times over the past twelve years. I shall not have another cat or dog as its hard to look after them in a wheelchair. So I will share my love at a distance with Levi and who is Pickles please? Love from Denise xx
David was sorry to hear about Twinkle, it’s so hard when these pets are such a big part of our lives.
Pickle is his very chilled tabby cat.
Hi guys hope to find you and your family are well, I was wondering if there is any chance i could send you a birthday card for David to sighn please to Jackie and let me know where to send it, if it wasn’t for Jackie I wouldn’t be here,she is my sister, carer and best friend anyone could ask for,she helps me with my MH and physical health,she has saved me from not wanting to live anymore when I’m in hospital every single day she is there,she is my life, could could David put a special thank you to her please, we have gone every where you are from top of the pops to Elf, much appreciated thank you so much for taking the time to read this see you in your legends tour..?

Hi, I know you probably get thousands of messages like this but my mum is the big 60 in February. Would it be possible for you to send a birthday card?
My mum missed out meeting you years ago when you were stuck in the snow outside her sister’s house. My aunt helped dig you and your manager at the time out of the snow just outside Kington. For years, my mum held this against her sister Vera, saying if she’d of rang she would have walked the 6miles to see you, to which my aunt always laughed and said don’t be silly it was snowing.
My mum would be so chuffed with a birthday card if this is possible?
Hello Paula, David would be more than happy to send her a signed photo wishing her a happy birthday. Just leave an address on here or you can send a birthday card to us for him to sign.
Kind regards

Just like to say thank you so much for the Birthday Card. Taking time out from your busy schedule during the Elf run to sign a card for me is so appreciated. Hope you had a great New Year & are having a well earned rest, again thank you.
Love Tracey.xxx
Happy New year guys.. Sorry to bother you I really am but I’ve messaged you before because I was trying to get David’s I’ll be missing you final tour CD /DVD I tried again in November but I haven’t had a refund so we assumed it may be on the way because at that time they had them in we tried pats daughter that time, but she has emailed them numerous times. The main reason I’m telling you is incase any other fans seem to get the same problem they have still said they are waiting for David to release more. I’m so sorry to bother you..
They are out of stock and more will be pressed, but don’t know the date sorry. Nyquest should be able to let you know when.
Elf was spectacular thank you and everyone else that was in it, we saw the last show in Nottingham, fabulous, the whole family came.
Myself and my daughter will see you Legends live Nottingham, .happy healthynew year to you and all your family, xxx

Hi David
I used to live in Percy Road Canning Town. I think you lived in the street next to mine Clarence Road.
I remember when you revisited Star Lane school in the seventies with a camera crew and was also filming on Peggy Leggy steps.
What was that documentary called as I would really love to see that again as I was young at the time maybe eight to ten years old.
Regards
Paul Clarkson
Hello Paul, I remember doing it but don’t know what it was called, sorry. Good luck finding it.
Best wishes – David
Good Luck With Elf looking forward to seeing it soon.. and lots of faces we know too in the cast…hope all goes well xx…Thanks so much again xx
Thank you

Hi David an elderly friend of mine called Gwen whom had wanted to meet you for years came to one of your concerts in Southend on sea It was her first visit after years of being a devoted fan she was so happy to have had the opportunity to meet you I’m not sure if you remember ….
And just wondered f you could wish her well today
Best wishes
Anna
Hello Anna,
It’s quite possible that I would have met Gwen, but to be honest I get to see so many people and couldn’t say for sure.
Best wishes – David
Thanks again for your help answering where A Winter’s Tale was filmed. I had an email from Simon King yesterday, confirming that his Dad directed the shoot and he was cameraman. It was filmed near Hexworthy on Dartmoor in Devon – I thought it looked familiar! Really appreciate your help.
Pleasure, glad you were able to find the location. It was a great back drop – David
Please send me a signed Christmas card as ive been a fan since the 70s first seen you at the globe Stockton-on-Tees seen you several times at Darlington Newcastle & Harrogate I have you a gift of a West Ham wallet last year have a great xmas wish I could see you in Elf but I’m not well enough to travel as I’m waiting to have surgery but when I’m well I will find you haha love from a loyal fan take care Denise Davies Parsons x❤️
It’s on it’s way
I enjoyed reading the interview in ‘Yours’ magazine this week. Is David planning on writing any more books in the near future please. I realise these things take time LOL! xx
Hi David, it’s my 60th birthday on Christmas Eve, it would make my day receiving a card from you. I once walked down the street with Susan and you after ATFOTF in Glasgow. Been a fan since Rock on. .
– it’s on its way
Hi David family from Tasmania Australia. Wishing you all a Merry Christmas
Hi David, Just to say, have lots of fun in Elf this Christmas! “It’s The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year!!!” Love Sallyx (Essex)
Hi guys that’s a shame but won’t stop trying..i have to share this with you pat (my sister) who we both adore david but pat listens to David’s music all the time..her daughter took her (pats) grandson shopping and in the one shop they were in David’s winters tale was playing she said to her 3 year old who is singing this he shouted David essex the woman in the shop said blimey David Essex’s fans are getting younger..ha ha we thought it was hilarious ..
Hi. I was interested to see that you answered a question earlier about the location of the video for A Winter’s Tale being somewhere in Dorset. Bits of the video look like they could be set on Dartmoor or Exmoor. I present a radio show in Devon and would love to clarify this – so that I could mention it when we play David’s song this Christmas. Many thanks in advance.
It was directed by the late John King and the brilliant film maker Simon King, his son, who was known for his nature films. Unfortunately David doesn’t remember where it was shot exactly.
Hi I’m not a stalker I promise you but yet to no avail I don’t suppose you know anywhere else I may be able to get the cd/dvd from..david did send a lovely signed photo with some lovely words and she is so grateful thank you..David essex OBE you are one fantastic and 100pc popular man..thank you so much for your time and effort to help me much appreciated..
This is the only company that is selling them, sorry.
Jackie, it really does take a Month or more to receive the DVD! Just looked at my invoice from when I previously ordered it & from order to delivery it took 5 weeks, 3 Days to get here. With it coming up to Christmas as well it may take longer. Be patient cos it will get there providing you ordered it correctly. I had an invoice from the Company confining my order, hope that helps.
Best wishes to you & Pat
Tracey.
Hi David,
Hope you are keeping well. I had to write this, when you do Elf the Musical in Cardiff in December, my nephew Kian Swainston is going to be one of the dancers, i’m so proud of him he is really good & its even better knowing that he is on stage with you David. Good luck with the Musical not that you will need it, it will be a hit. I’ve followed you since 1978, first time at Grand Theatre, Leeds & 45 times since then & enjoyed every show that you have done you are a true entertainer & gentleman.
Love & best wishes
Bev xx

Hi David Essex where was the winter’s tale video location
It was somewhere in Dorset Mark
Basildon Operatic Society have just been granted the licence to perform the regional amateur premiere of Evita. It an incredible achievement for us and it’s going to be extremely expensive for us to produce this magnificent show. As you can imagine we are absolutely thrilled to have been allowed this privilege. We will be needing to promote this show as much as is at all possible. In short, with David’s highly successful involvement in Evita, we wondered if he could help in any way whatsoever with the promotion or publicity. Our production opens on 22nd May, 2018 at the Towngate Theatre, Basildon, Essex and if there is the remotest chance that David could attend the opening that would be totally amazing, or any performance come to that. If this is not possible perhaps a brief note of encouragement to our cast as this is the biggest thing and by far the most expensive show that this Society has ever put on. I hope this is not too much to ask, so please forgive me if this is so. I look forward to hearing from you in due course. Kind regards.
To the cast and crew of Balsildon Operatic Society,
Every good wish for your production of Evita – go well
David Essex
Hi David I have to tell you how grateful I am for what you have done for pat.ive literally left her and for the first time in months she has sobbed with happy tears she said ” that’s it I will be going to see elf and legends tour” and ive surprised her with a booking at potters she is so poorly and sometimes finds it hard to put one foot in front of the other,you are a true legend and a pure gentleman, thank you thank you so much..
Pleasure – David
Hi David, it is my partner Janice 60th Birthday on the 8 December, she has always been a huge fan of yours, I was wondering if you would be kind enough to send a signed photo with a birthday message on it to her.

Kind regards

David’s music touched me when I was around 10 years old, his eyes used to melt me. Most of the kids I knew didn’t even know who David Essex was but I didn’t care, I really had the biggest crush on you and my heart used to flutter every time I saw those eyes. Well, I saw those eyes again for the first time today, I haven’t really looked into your career or what you have been doing for 30 years or so but I just wanted to see what you had been up to and wow you have been a busy man. I found my heart fluttering when I saw your website photo. So its good to know that you still make my heart tingle after 44 years. Thank you for all of your music, congratulations on your OBE and I wish I could attend your concert tour next year but I don’t live in England. Anyway, good luck with it all and best of luck. Where can I get copies of your early albums (the remastered ones). Thanks again for all of your efforts and you have aged really well. You are a very good looking man and I am sure that hundreds of women must tell you that every day. Thanks again. xx
Thank you for you message Judy,
Best wishes- David
Hello David, I left a message a few days ago but haven`t received a reply.

Hello David, yes we’ve received your message. It’ll be in the post next week addressed to you.

Thank you for sending the photo.
And I will see you at ELF with all our family in Nottingham. And Legends Live Nottingham,.cant wait.
My very best wishes Denise , from Loughborough.
Condolences to you and your family – David

Hello Lynsey,
David remembers being introduced to Rock and Roll by his cousin Eddie, Little Richard etc.
Hi David,
I’ve been a fan of yours for over 40 years. Seen you many times over the years! Will be seeing you at Brighton Legends. Sadly I’ve never met you to get your autograph It’s my 54th birthday at the end of the month October! It would so make my day if I could have a signed picture of you! It would take pride of place in my house! I will understand if you can’t as I know you are a very busy man!

Hi David, Great to see you, looking well on Good Morning Britain recently. My Daughter asked last night if I had seen the advert with David Essex in his Christmas cardigan for Elf! I haven’t, as I live out in the sticks, and don’t get London adverts! Anyway, telling Mum the story, she hasn’t seen it yet! And then she says it will all be alright!!! What’s the song?! It’s Gonna Be Alright Mum!!!! Would love to see Elf at Christmas! Let’s hope Santa has got me on his Nice list!!! Love Sally (Essex) x

Thanks for the entertainment.

Good afternoon David
Thank you for your reply. Ha ha wow …you really did go strawberry picking ..
Bet you were busy eating those big strawberries and your mum told you off… ha ha
I only just read your reply and sadly my brother died on Sunday so couldn’t say ahhh you were right … How on Earth he knew that I’ll never know …
He wasn’t a fan of yours he was mostly into Santana I drove from Essex to Peterborough in my fiat convertible with the roof down playing samba pa ti in memory of him . He did like you and always complained that his wife liked you too ha ha ha
So sorry to hear of your brother passing. I send my condolences – David
So pleased to hear about the Legends Tour it`ll be 2 years since we saw you last and just cant wait….seems like forever for us , also bringing some new “Paws” fans with us to the local concert who have never seen you live and are so excited – Great to see you on Tv too looking fab and great Radio interview ……! Went mad and booked 6…..sometimes you just have to travel to see the best well worth it….(and will be great to see Suzie again .) Take care love to all… extra hug for Levi xxxx And Thank You ….Rock On and On x
What a great 6oth birthday week I’ve had. Firstly they reprinted our photograph in the all our yesterdays page of the Coventry Evening Telegraph and then I saw you on ‘This Morning’. You have inspired me to embrace my age and look forward to my NHS pension this month. Thank you my friend xx
Thank you for doing all those interviews David, lovely to see you looking so well, you sounded like you were enjoying them too. Much appreciated.
Best Wishes Trace.xx
A new legends tour (2019) and NO Scottish dates again!
What is wrong with Scotland?
Do you know the additional cost of going to Newcastle or further south are
prohibitive to many!
Hello Lesley, unfortunately David has no say in where the tour goes. He loves going to Scotland.
Hi
My mum has been a fan of David for over 40 years, and i am also ! Her 60th birthday is coming up and i wondered if it would be possible to arrange a birthday card to be sent and signed from David ?
Thanks in advance !
Katie x
Yes, if you could let me know your Mum’s name and address to send it to.
Thank you – D E Management
Hi
I wanted to send the card to you so that David can sign that. Is this possible?

Hello I posted a message yesterday about trying to get tickets for the Legends Live tour..Well I managed to get some this morning in Leeds and it is thanks to a fan of David’s who posted a link on fb. David has just the best fans ever and the support and help so many have given to me over the years and still do is exceptional xx
Hiya
Just want to let you know that ever since I found out that David was going to be on the Legends Live tour I have been trying to get tickets for it. This has been very difficult because I knew about it but the venues didn t. Or rather it was not on their websites. I spoke to someone on Sunday on the Leeds Direct phone number and he told me it wasn t showing on his screen . Now it has appeared on their website and I spoke to someone earlier who told me that to get presale you had to be registered on the legends live page a week ago. However a week ago this was impossible as it didn t exist. I am going to try and get tickets on Friday but I will be very disappointed if all the front rows are taken. This is not Davids fault but I just thought you should know that his real fans who try and get to see him wherever he goes are not always being given a fair chance.
Lots of love
Julie x
Hello Julie, we were only given the details this week. Glad you managed to get tickets.
It’s been 37 years to the day that you and I made headlines together on the front page of the Coventry Telegraph. I still have the large black and white photograph in my lounge that you kindly autographed for me. Happy memories indeed!
Dear David
Just quick question please …and of course if you are able to answer it ….
I went back to my roots yesterday from Wickford Essex to Peterborough cambs where I grew up …to spend quality time with my family and sadly my beautiful kind spiritual brother Salvatore who sadly does not have long to live … but in my attempt to entertainer him with one of my over exergerated funny story’s your name popped up I told him I’d stalked you but not intentionally ha ha that put a smile on his face as I was telling him I’d gone to watch war of the worlds couple years ago in London on my own and you passed me we both went to same tube station and I was terrified to look at you in case you thought I was following you and so I moved away to the next carriage and got on there I did laugh because there you were few feet away from me you looked so normal so relaxed as any other commuter I just couldn’t say can I have a picture with you or an autograph it was your private time you’d finished your job for the evening so my brother looked a me and Said ahhh you missed your chance and I replied no I never because I stood right near him that was special anyway and I get to tell the tale it’s a moment in time out of the ordinary for a laymen person and that makes it a special memory he then looked at me and laughs weakly, and said you know what Anna I heared he use to go strawberry picking in wisbeach like you did, when you were young with mum ,so there you go , your doomed, missed him again ha ha ha we did laugh but I was gobsmacked naaaaaah no way I can’t even imagine mr David essex doing that you are pulling my leg you might be dying but your not going quietly are you want to leave me pondering on that one ha ha
I remember I was about 10/12 going strawberry picking with my mum in wisbeach (it was my only pocket money ,) we would all hurdle in the van very early in the morning then stop at the gypsy camp somewhere about there and pick up a few of the travellers/ Romany gypsy so there we were load of Italian immergrants and Romany gypsy. I made friends with a young Romany gypsy girl of my age she use to say can’t come to your house your not a gypsy ha ha ha and of course I couldn’t go to hers but I so wanted to the camp always looked welcoming and mysterious …. ha ha anyway you might have been there in that same place somewhere some time …
if it’s true
How mad would that be you of course weren’t David essex then ha ha ha
So is it true did you really go strawberry picking in wisbeach ????????????
Hello Anna, yes I did, but my Mum did most of the picking. Happy days!
Best wishes – David
Hi I want to try and arrange a pre record radio inter view with David Essex, is there an email address for DE Management please
Thanks
Lee
You can e-mail management@davidessex.com
is there any chance of David Essex coming to Australia – it’s been a long time between drinks.
Sadly no, but I know he’d like to.
Hi all, just a quick enquiry, something showed up on my Twitter feed saying #rhithemusical alongside David’s name, it then went on to say David had signed up to play the part of Jonathan. Is this true? And if so what is Rhi The musical? Cos I can’t find any info on it!
Thanks & best wishes Trace, xx
He knows nothing about it Tracey.
Many thanks for signing my 60th Birthday card it means a lot to me
Hello,all,
I have no idea if David has any concerts planned for next Year & if my Daughter knows,shes not saying anything,probably because of what I told her earlier. After almost 46 years of being driven mad by David’s music,films,books etc, (I had a brief respite when Tracey left home), I’ve now decided I want to experience for myself what all the rumpus is about! So at 78/79 years old,my Daughter has very reluctantly agreed to take me to a concert,so hopefully,fingers crossed David will do something next Year, my curiosity at this stage really is getting the better of me. But by all accounts, its something I should look forward to, so heres hoping.
Regards to all, Brian
Hello Brian, there are no plans at the moment, but any news of tours etc will be on here.
Thanks for your reply, as you can see from my Daughters reply,i put up with a lot! But happy to say, she is going to take me to the Legends concert in April & shes paying for the ticket,what one yet we don’t know but been told to ‘get my finger out & decide’ because she’ll be booking the tickets asap,so by the time April gets here,i’ll be 79 & going to my first ever Rock Concert,never thought it would be to see David Essex though! Wonder if I still have my white suit from the 70’s? No, Tracey would have me committed.
Regards to all Brian
OMG Dad!! I didn’t know you knew David had a website,much less knew how to post on here. I said you could come with me, not sit with me, oh no, you can sit at the back, quietly & in disguise!
Thank you so much for finding the time to reply.. You will never believe the happiness you have brought me and pat the arguing who had the best posters going to see you for the first time Trust me whatever you was doing we was there that was me and her shouting “i don’t think so” yep you thought it was the crouds no we have very big mouths lol.. Thank you thank you so much..xx
Dear David ,There is a paperback book for sale on Amazon called Rock On.Is this an official book? Please let me know.Regards Mary.
Hello Mary, no it’s not an official book.
David thank you so much received my signed photo off you this morning thanks for Birthday wishes sonia xx
Hope you had a lovely day
love your music
Hi there hope to find David and family are good..you helped us so much by doing a signed photo for my sister pat..im trying so hard to keep her happy she isn’t well at all…anyway could you tell me if David will be doing a meet and greet at the end of the musical elf at all doubt she will be well enough to see him again.do you think David will ever tour again??..take care of yourself..Jackie..xx
Hello Jackie, As it’s Arena’s it’s very difficult to do meet and greets and unfortunately we can’t promise anything, sorry.
Firstly, Thank you very much for your response. I actually found out myself yesterday night when my boyfriend bought me the album! We looked up the wrestler too! How funny! Many thanks again
April
David ive always been your fan but never been able to see you live i was wondering if i please could get a signed photo autograph for my birthday on August 27 i wont treasure it for life xx
Hello Sonia, David would be more than happy. So sorry for this very late reply, please leave your address on here, thank you.
Dear David,
Hope you are well. As an amateur singer-songwriter-guitarist, I’ve always admired your talent, seen you in concert and loved your songs for many years. I wondered if you would be able to assist me please?
I have been looking for sheet music for your wonderful song Myfanwy – one of my favourites! I have searched on many websites and sheet music sites but unfortunately I have not had any luck so far.
I have recently noticed that it was released originally on the Arista Records label (according to the info from the cd single available on amazon), which I understand is part of Sony. I emailed Sony over a week ago but have had no reply. Is there any way it would be possible to find out please if this particular sheet music was ever published?
I would be grateful for your help and will look forward to hearing from you.
Thank you.
All the best,
Marc
Hello Marc,
With regard to the song Myfanwy, I don’t think there is sheet music published, the song was a poem by John Betjeman ,set to music by Mike Read, perhaps Mike can help,
Kind regards,
D E Management
Paul McCartney’s new song. Come home to me sounds just like you !!!!
I remember seeing “all the fun of the fair” on a Guide pack holiday in London back in 2010. My guide leader was a fan so we all waited at the stage door and I got a photo with David Essex just to show my mum. She’d been such a huge fan of yours as a teen and wanted to go to the show too but it never came to Leeds. Her adoration has never changed. My mum is terminally ill now and little brings her pleasure. But today for the first time in ages I cried happy tears as i watched my mum try to sing along to “hold me close” with a big smile on her face. I found this website while trying to find some more songs to play her tomorrow and I just wanted to thank you for making her happy all these years. It’s made such a difference to see her smile again.
“I never knew when, I never knew how I’d see your face again. Yours was just a face I’d seen in a magazine, no chance to meet but oh Wotta treat….. ”
These are words from one of David’s songs. I think it was called The Boxer(!?)
But I can’t be certain. I’ve looked everywhere online for clues but no joy. It’s driving me crazy
Music I’ve had for years was all stolen so no chance to check from my past collection, sadly
Many thanks
Hello April, sorry for the late reply, it was the “Zebra kid”. It’s on the “Hot Love” album.
Another Big Thank You David x ..your a star x
Dear David
I hope you don’t mind me contacting you but I’m emailing on behalf of my friend and colleague, Sue, who has just undergone a gruelling round of chemotherapy. She is on the mend now but is very tired. She is a super fan of yours and has followed your career throughout the years. Sue and I came to your concert when you were last in Oxford and had a wonderful evening (we both saw you previously a few years before that in Oxford) but Sue has seen you lots more times over the years too.
I wondered if there was any chance at all of a signed photo to cheer Sue up at this time in her life? I totally appreciate how busy you are and how many requests you must get of this nature.
In any case, thank you for all the years of music and for the happiness you have given so many people over the years.
Very best wishes.
Frances (on behalf of Sue)
Yes of course, David would be more than happy. If you can leave an address on here we can do that for you. Details will not be published.
Thank you so very much for sending the signed picture for Sue. It has meant the world to her and will really boost her recovery. So grateful for your kindness. Very best wishes.
David
Wanting to thank you so much for meeting up with us after Garons Park.
Amazing day of music entertainment.
Your performance was just the best.
Seen you at many venues but this my favourite by far.
Thank you , hope to see you again soon.
Love Karen x
Thank You so much David….”Paws” was over the moon! lots of love x
Well we waved our bithday banner At the concert, Although got bit fed up after 20 mins arm was aching so put it away. Good news a few nice ladies behind me asked who’s birthday is it , David essex I replied happily , his birthday is tomorrow . so off started something similar to Chinese whisper, I just about heared …
its his birthday tomorrow etc etc ….
Ha ha But what was really amazing ….was what happened at the end unfortunately had to leave as you ended your last song ..to avoid the volume of people and cars exiting the park my sister and our friend had to get back to Peterborough and Wisbech as we got mid way to the exit. Heard every one singing you happy birthday I stopped turn back o look and just saw 100 100 of amazing fans both in the tent and outside the sourrounding area ..
It was incredible and I laughed to myself thinking bet not even the queen has had so many people all in one moment sing happy birthday absolutely wonderful I wonder how that must feel can’t even imagine, most of us at the most will in one life time have about 10/20/50 possibly 100 people in one go sing it …. must admit I always feel slightly embarrassed and uncomfortable when I’m at the receiving end I usually shy away and want to hide ha ha ha ha
It was a great day and my friend carlamaria who has never seen you live but always been a fan (was visiting from Dubai) loved it and thought you were amazing and so eloquent …so thank you for such a great evening in Southend
Will there be a recording of David at Garon Park please?Mary
No there won’t, Sorry.

Hello David,
A few years back when my late husband was working for BBC Essex, he and I met you in your dressing room at the Cliffs Pavilion, Westcliff on Sea Essex. You were great fun and extremely charming and although I am sure you will not remember the occasion when he interviewed you, I still remember you signing a CD for me of which I still cherish. I am hoping to be able to get tickets for Garon’s Park next Sunday and to see late husband was Ric Morgan.
Kind Regards,
Janet
Yay Friday night!

Many thanks again

I have been a fan since “Gonna Make You A Star” but cannot remember the first time I heard it. I was born in 1968, obviously well after you came to fame, but as I was growing up, I remember seeing you in “Silver Dream Racer” and have loved it ever since. Would love to hear from you.
Thank you Lianne, best wishes – David
Hi
I’m a freelance UK rock journalist and I’m writing a book on the early 70s glam era. I wondered if you’d be interested in an interview – could be by email or phone – whatever you preferred.

Hello Mark,
Thank you for you’re message, unfortunately David’s not doing any interviews at the moment.
Kind regards
D E Management
Dear David I just realised your birthday is day after the 70 concert in the park .southend on sea i will be there at the front and I treated my sister Caterina for her 60th so I’m hoping depending on my creative abilitity (not too good which is bad really considering I’m Anglo Italian and should be by blood quiet creative considering that heritage ha ha ) to make a banner with happy birthday to you and wave it like mad hoping you’ll notice it amongst the 1000 of eager faces trying to attract your attention ha ha . But what I really was writing to you here about before I got carried away was if you can and have time during you short appearance at the park concert wish my very special kind if at times irratinging beautiful sister a happy 60th please please and just to be extra cheeky please say hello to me too I’m Anna ….
Thank you so very much if you can and if not then thank you for reading this slightly mad message and at least thinking about my words Kind regards Anna
Hello Anna, thank you for your message. I hope you both have a fantastic time, unfortunately David doesn’t do shout outs during concerts as he has so many requests. He’d be more than happy to send a signed photo for your sister if you can leave an address on here, it won’t be published.
Enjoy the concert.
Kind regards

Thank you so much David and all your team for helping arrange for you to send me my birthday card that arrived in the post today for my 65th Birthday. I am over the moon with it. Has made my day. I was stupid enough to fall over last night whilst out looking for my lovely cat Spearmint, and am now very battered and bruised. Stupid person that I am , this really cheered me up. Lots of love Jan xxx
Our pleasure, hope you’re feeling better now.
David,just listened to your songs on radio2.The Evita special was lovely.Tim Rice says you are the best Che ever! See you in Southend. Mary

Hi David have a lovely Fathers Day (don’t forget the sausages!) Enjoy the World Cup and Golf coverage too.
I know this is really cheeky but can I request for myself a Birtday Card from David for my 65th Birthday on the 28th of this month (June). It would make my Birthday perfect and soooooo Special ???? I have followed David for more years than I can’t remember and seen him more timescale than I can remember. 3 years ago I got to have my photo taken with him after War of the Worlds and 2 year’s shows she lucky to have a few more taken when I went to his Book Signing in Reading. When’s he looked up st me and said ‘I know your face’ I nearly landed by his feet under the table, my knees trembled so much. Thank you so much and hope my 65th wish can be made come true. Love to David, Susan and all his gang from Jan xx
Hello Jan, David would be more than happy to send you a signed photo for your birthday. If you can leave your address on here, it won’t be published.

Hi David’s team, my mum Helen is a super fan of David and has been listening to his songs from when she was a teenager and has been to so many of his concerts. It is her 50th Birthday in July and I am wondering if it would be possible to get a signed photo of David. I am her daughter and I know this would really make her day, if it’s possible to get a signed photo I plan to frame it alongside the vinyl of Gonna Make You a Star (her favourite David Essex song). I really hope you can help me with this special birthday surprise and thank you David for making my mum so happy through your music! Best wishes Katie
Hello Katie, If you can leave your address on here, it won’t be published, we can do that for you. Can you let us know your Mum’s name please.

Hi David,
We share a birthday!
Just to let you know, that we are having a jam at our caravan park near Whitby to celebrate my (our) birthday , with a barbeque and a few drinks, would be lovely to see you there if you are available to have a chilled afternoon with a bit of a sing along. No pressure! But would be amazing if you could! Saw you in Sheffield last year, I was the one with the album thrust under your nose that I got signed by you.
Be there if you can, you’d love it!!
Best wishes

Hi David, Just been passed Garon Park, looking forward to 22nd July! Was on way to Shoeburyness to collect moses basket! I am going to be a Nanna!

I feel like Silver Dream Racer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Congratulations Sally on becoming a Nanna, from David and D E Management
Hi David, I am not sure if this message will get to you but just wanted to say thank you as my daughter met you on Sunday at my grandsons football match. I know you must get sick of people asking for photographs but she knew how much it would mean to me so thanks for agreeing to have a picture taken with her it really made my day.
I have seen you many time the first being when I was young and you were playing in Liverpool and the Real Thing were your supporting act. I came to see you in September at Butlins and again the Real Thing also happened to be playing, sadly Eddie has now passed away and this only makes you realise how we should grasp and cherish every day. I love everything about the seventies and the music from that time. I only hope you and all the other musicians from that time, who still perform know how much it means to people like me and that your music has helped me get through many a sad or dark time. So Thank you again because what might seem a little thing like having your photo taken is actually the world to someone like me. Also I hope everything works out well for lady and her sister who wrote in the last comment Love Sheila xxx

Hope yr enjoying the lovely weather.
Best wishes – Rita x
Hello Rita, sorry, this isn’t David’s production and has no say where it goes.
I was shocked when I realized David Essex was you!!! lol! I lived in Manor Rd. buildings from about 1953 or 54 to about 1961. I remember when I was about 10 and my brother Robert 11 or 12 and you about 13 all digging giant holes and trying to dig tunnels over “the mems” (Memorial Grounds) and you always brought all the equipment; shovels, torch etc and you told us we were cousins. Ginny Cook was my nans sister (Eliza O’Shea) maiden name Holland. We moved to Canada in 1966 with our parents so didn’t know you as David Essex. I only found out recently that David Essex is a second cousin (or is it cousin once removed?) It’s funny when I first saw you doing “Rock On” on TV while holidaying in England I thought you looked familiar! no idea at that time you were David Cook:) Do you have any memories of these times? I’m pretty sure you were living with Ginny Cook at the time for a while. All the best, rock on! Pat
Thanks for your message Pat, it was a long time ago and he wishes you well.
Just a quick question
Anyone going to Garon Park need to know best hotel to stay in 4 venue if u could help would be grateful cheers .
We getting to knackered to drive home same night fans x
Just to say Thanks David xx

Lately, I’ve been buying my favorite songs from the 60’s and 70’s. Luckily, I found your song, bought it, and looked you up. Apparently, living in the US has prevented me from seeing so much of your work. …ah, perhaps I will get a chance. Best, Kathryn
Hello! I have a simple question…I recently sent David an email to the address on this site. Will he actually get to read it? I would be completely thrilled! Thanks so much for your time.
Peace-
Hello Chryssi, I don’t seem to be able to find your e-mail. Would you be kind enough to send it again and I’ll make sure David see’s it, or post it in here and it won’t be published.

Hi David
May I ask, are you actually appearing in person on the 22/7/18 2pm at Garon park Southend . I actually overheard two ladies in Waitrose Billericay Essex talking about it near the veggi isle ha ha I didn’t want to appear rude eavesdropping on there conversation although i definetley was ha ha so I moved away pretending I wasn’t and may have mis heared that it could be a tribute to you and not you in the flesh
I live in wickford so that would be great for me as practically on my door step .However I can’t see anywhere stating that you are . So I’m totally confused (not that it takes a lot to confuse me at the best of times) please can you clarify or confirm yay o nay to the above date . I would be very happy to know rush to buy tickets spread the word and stop scanning the internet in frustration trying to source info and tickets
Thanking you and Essex admin in advance for any replies …. have a happy sunny Sunday

Hi Gill, not sure where that’s come from, but no David’s not involved with a Charity night in May.
Hi Everyone vote for David in Smooth Radios top five hundred of all time, I just voted for Rock On at 1, Gonna Make You A Star 2 and Hold Me Close 3. Le’ts all vote and get David back on top!
Hi David
A big fan since the 70’s when I first saw you on Top of The Pops. Loved all your films and the web site is great.
Is it true you started out as a drummer In The Everons that later became The China Plates? I was wondering who else was in the band?
Cheers
John
John Keller, Brian Monday and Sandra Monday were the other members of the band
A huge thanks for tweeting Tracey this morning David. First time in over a week I’ve seen her smile!
Best wishes Brian

Hi David, I’m looking for the lovely song A shoulder to cry on and I know its on the very best of, is it possible for you to please consider get this fabulous album on Spotify or iTunes I would love to have it. Kind regards Wendi
He’s unable to as it’s owned by Universal Records.
Hi David & all,
Just a quick note to say Thank you for the time you all took to give us Davids Facebook page. It seems strange without it being there & i’m quite sad that it no longer is but realise how hard work it must have been but,onwards & upwards at least we have Twitter & the Website. Please don’t disappear completely though!
Appreciative thoughts to each of you.
Best wishes
Tracey.x
I agree with you Tracey it’s weird that it is no longer there, feels like something is missing and it’s a bit of a shame because a lot of David’s fans don’t use Twitter…But I guess there is a good reason for taking it down.

Hi, can you just tell me where the video for the song A Winter’s Tale was filmed? Thank you.
It was filmed somewhere in the West Country.
Hi just seen David is at Potteres Resort in July is this the only gig he will be doing or will David and the band be doing other things around that time Many Thanks.
This is is the only one Julie
HI David, Wishing you & Your Family, A very Happy Easter! Love Sally (Essex)xxx
Meant to put in my previous message that I hope David gets to sing Winters Tale along with some others.
Hello Karen, It’s not David’s show, so his songs won’t be in it, Sorry.
Not to worry David will still be as excellent as ever in his role in the panto
Just managed to get my tickets booked for “ELF”, long time away but something to look forward to.
Hello David Essex I’m hoping to go to India soon volentire to help in an orphanage which belongs to mother meera however I’m suppose to bring something to the table ha ha have no teaching skills what’s so ever so really not sure what I can do apart from cooking cupcakes I would bring them prepackaged ingredients and imagine I’ll be using goats milk hopefully chicken eggs ha ha After all it would be something different a moment of pure fun . Hope I’m not cooking in those clay pots that definetly would be a challenge especially trying to get those cupcakes to rise ummmm. I read some years ago that you spent time in Africa within a similar situation and was wondering what did you do during your stay . And young wise one do you have any suggestions ? Please don’t say teach them songs as I can’t sing for love of money and I honestly think I’m toned deaf ha ha thanking you in advance for any helpful advice
Hello Aur
Hello Arora, well done, sounds like you’re going to do some good. I found my time in Africa teaching, very fulfilling. Good luck – David
Hi, been a huge fan for many years & attended most shows both tours & other projects like Mutiny, Robinson Crusoe, All the Fun of the Fair & Boogie Nights so very excited about Elf! But can admin explain to me how the offer of discounted seats would work?- would I need to be an official fan club member & how would payment actually be made? In this day & age of inflated prices & extortionate booking fees I think this offer is a really nice gesture, whether I am personally able to take advantage of it or not!
Any information would be much appreciated.
Thank you
Hello Julie, if you e-mail Jordan he’ll be able to help you on jordan@worldsbiggestpanto.com
Hi david hope you and your family are well would it be possible for another signed photo please to go with my collection if that’s OK loving you always Janice many thanks take care xxxxxx
If you can leave your address on here, it won’t be published, we can do that for you.
Hi David would love to see you in ELF but will you be coming to a london Venue as that is much nearer and not so expensive to travel too
Many thanks Valerie xx
Sorry Valerie, it’s just Cardiff, Birmingham and Nottingham
Hi admin i’ve emailed Jordan Conway’s link for fan tickets this morning. Do you know how long before we get a reply, only I don’t want to miss out on good tickets and was considering Pre sale tomorrow. Please help if you can, a very excited fan .thanks Kat
Sorry not to get back to you sooner, hopefully they’ve been in touch
Hi David, Bit of spontinaiety on a Monday night! Daughter comes home, wine comes out, sounds get played, you had to be high for some of them!!! – Had our own little party! The best part was Rock On, Lamp Light and more… and when she sang, Queen: Moet & Charn Do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love our parties!!! Gonna Make You A Star! Goodnight! Love Sallyx (Essex)
Can’t wait to see ELF the musical December, great news x
Hi David, just wondered if you had any shows or anything else lined up for 2018? . I’m looking out of the window at the cold snow and thinking how good it would be to have something to look forward to with David in the coming year. Pamela x

Dear David,I’m sitting here watching the snow come down and listening to A Winter’s Tale.Perfect! Mary Mullett
Hi David, I watched Casualty 10th Feb, I couldn’t believe how much Billy looks like you & sounds like you, he was very good. I also thought that if they ever did “That It’ll Be The Day” Billy could play Jim MacLaine. Take care Love Bev xx
Hi, can you tell me if Over the Moon is just an updated version of A Charmed Life or are they two completely different books?
Many thanks
Jeremy
They’re both autobiographies, Over the Moon is the updated one
Ok so Over The Moon is the same as A Charmed Life but with updates? Nothing different in A Charmed Life? Sorry to sound repetitive but just wanted to make sure. Happy to get both if they’re different.
They are different, but they’re both autobiographies
Hello,David. I watched ‘Casualty’ on Saturday and recognised Billy as Jamie/Darren.Excellent acting and can’t believe how like you he sounds!! Hope all is well with you and family missing being able to have one of your concerts to look forward to. Best wishes,Sharon,fan of 44yrs

Morning David
Hope your well . I’m having a moment I remember well I think i do however I could have imagined the whole thing . That is I thought many years ago …I’d heared you or the presenter on the radio say that you had read his palm in Romany hahaha ….
I was tiding my bookshelves deciding what to give away as I have kindle now came across charmed life , which triggered the memory and of course now I want to know if this is correct ….haha if you can answer me here I’d be grateful .If not well then thank you for reading this and I’ll just keep wondering hahaha
Hello Anna, no David didn’t read his palm in Romany. Hope you enjoyed the book.
When will you be back in margate. There are a lot of people that want to see you back.
Hello Lorayne, no plans right now.

I think It’s best to go it to a music shop to ask advice. Sorry we can’t be of more help
Kind regards – D E Management
Crazy notion on Xmas eve but I’m the son of one of your biggest fans… Unfortunately she doesn’t do crowds and has concentrated on raising her family over doing things she used to love like coming to see you perform again… Think my mum saw you last in 1970 something
My name is David Champion (Guess where my first name comes from??? ) and I am the son of Christine Champion
Like I mentioned she is amazed by you and on many occasions we’ve both sat up watching the dvd of yourself live at the Albert Hall and cutting back to ‘oh what a circus’ several times (which actually turns out to be quite rare apparantly… No sign of it online anywhere! Not that live performance anyway or any of that gig… So the dvd made me a hero of a son in her eyes)
I’m not sure exactly where I’m going with this message exactly…
I just want the perfect gift for my mum this year because she’s an absolute hero
I’m aware you’re a legend and legends have tight schedules but had to try regardless
Obviously you’re not gonna pop over for tea and hobnobs but if you could do something like send a message to my email (she’s old school! Internet is the devil) but yea even something as simple as an email saying hi to her would make her year!!!! If not her life!!!
Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones
I’ll be bringing her to see you next time you solo perform hopefully
Thanks for taking the time to read
Yours hopefully
David Champion
Apologies David for not getting back to you sooner. Would your mum like a signed photo? If so please leave your Mums name and an address to send it to. Your details won’t be published.

Hi David,
Just in pub with my girlfriend and a winter’s tail came on the video jukebox. A bit of an argument as to where it was filmed looks like Dartmoor to me. We both loved it.

Hi David,
It’s that time of the year again – When we Remember Christmasses past – “Good Old East End”!
Christmas Eve, singing Gonna Make You A Star, with hairbrush as microphone, in the front room! Christmas tree lights on, waiting for the “Tinny” Santa’s sleigh, (Round Table), to come down the road – And, “Sally” Army to sing carols around the lantern!
Oh, How I love Christmas! – Wishing you, and all of your Family, A Very Happy Christmas!
Love Sallyx (Essex)

Hello
Is David doing the work tour next year
Many Thanks
There are no plans at the moment.
Hi
Can anyone help. David had a song with the line fishing in the wind, which I really liked, but now cannot find as I cannot remember the title of the actual song.
Any help much appreciated
It was “Fishing for the moon”
I was in Cardiff and heard A Winters Tale and it was beautiful.The lights twink!led and a windmill went round .Mary

Hello, David…taking a moment to say I’ve been a fan for decades…saw That’ll Be the Day and Stardust in the theaters in New York..also saw you at the Bottom Line in concert…just wanted to say I’ve enjoyed your music and continue to find it adventurous and exciting and holds up very well after all these years…wish you were a bigger presence here in America…but I’m glad for your talent and music…stay well
David,
On holiday in Cyprus and watching ‘the river’. We think it’s the best thing we’ve ever seen. Will there be a season 2?!
Much love!

Morning David
I noticed somewhere haha can’t remember where but I came across a small trailer for documentary on yourself, however I don’t think it’s actually live to view the completed programme .can you please if you get time either confirm this is not yet live or if it is where can I view it . Really interested to view the path you walked and how it all lead to where you are today .peoples lives are always interesting but especially well know personalities because you look at pictures of anyone really as young children and in that moment they have no idea or the people around them how there lives are going to pan out ……And I suppose for those of us whom have walked a relatively sedentary life it’s always fascinating to watch or read about others much more eventful lives or should I say charmed lives ha
David, thank you for an amazing concert at Cricket St Thomas last Week. You & the band were on top form. Thoroughly enjoyed every minute. It was worth the epic journey to get there! And if you are ever at a loose end, job wise, the offer of a job still stands you’d make a great Counseller, my lads would love it!
Hi,all,could you tell me if there’s going to be a 2018 calendar please. Always have one for Xmas off kids!! Fingers crossed. X
Sorry, no calendar this year.
Saw David at Warner’s Cricket House in Somerset on Saturday a brilliant
show an amazing venue .The band were brilliant as usual. Hope to see you
soon David.
Hello David, thank you for a wonderful concert at Cricket St Thomas, the atmosphere felt very special as it was quite an intimate venue and your performance was captivating as usual. A big thank you too for signing my copy of your book ‘Faded Glory’ that made my evening even more memorable. See you next time, luv Ya to the stars and back Ann XX
The most beautiful face I’ve ever seen. Getting old sucks big time!
David and your awesome band the best by far..at birmingham…loved it…see you next time…xxx
i love you very much
Thoroughly enjoyed the show last night. I hope you do another one soon, we miss you David. I struggled getting up for work this morning after a late night but I wouldn’t have missed it for anything. All the best to you, the family and the lovely band. Anne Xx
We had an amazing time at Birmingham & Leeds, then everyone said we were mad to travel 8 hours to get to Brighton. They were totally wrong, even Storm Brian couldn’t deter us. What a night, David, you rocked Brighton Centre, amazing. So looking forward to “next time.”
Just been to Wembley,I absolutely loved Oh What A Circus.Mary.
Hi David, Had my ticket for months but due to a foot injury 5 months ago that refuses to stop hurting, I am off work today and instead of going up to London to see you at Wembley tonight, I am sat with foot up in splint resting it. After a cortisone injection on Monday I was hoping it would be better but sadly I can’t walk without excruciating pain. I am GUTTED to say the least. At least I am lucky that I have met you twice, and had my photo taken with you , the last time in Feb of this year when you came to Reading for your book signing. So sorry I can’t be there tonight. You are a true Gent and have brought me so much fun over all my years of seeing you in concerts and stage shows. Love Jan from Reading xx
Hi David and the band,
As always you were the best by far on Sunday night in Leeds.
You only had to listen to the crowd to know that.
Rock on!
Sue(hull)
Hi David, we’ve just home from the concert in my husband’s place of birth, Liverpool. He married a Londoner! Really enjoyed the show but you were the out and out star of it for us. Was really sad not to have the chance to hear more of your songs as we obviously did at the Liverpool Philomonic at the end of you final tour. Adore Only a Winters tale although it makes me cry – even over the sausages if necessary! Didn’t seem right not being able to hear you sing It will be ok, it’s such a beautiful and reassuring song with your special way of singing it. I truly hope to see you again one day. Take care, enjoy life and thank you for years of pure joy listening to your voice and seeing the twinkle in those blue eyes, love Shirley (and the Scouser who took me, Steve!) xx
Hi David
Had a great time on 14th at Birmingham. All acts were great but you were by far the best.
Karen
Hi David
You were fabulous in Leeds last night. Hot chocolate, The Osmonds and Suzi Quattro were also good but your session was by far the best. Really hope you will never stop singing with your band. Take care. Love always Julie (Hull) xxx
Dear David, Brilliant show in Birmingham on Saturday.You were by far the best artist.See you at Wembley.Mary
Couldn’t agree more David was brilliant as normal
David u rocked Glasgow last nite.Just got back to Dundee.Have a great time at the other venues.Come back to Scotland soon.Love Jill Cassidyx
Thank you for my birthday greeting that’s was very kind of you ….

Hi David & band, just to say a massive thankyou for the wonderful evening at Thoresby Hall this weekend.

Jerry also such a pleasant guy always willing to chat thanks.. David thanks again I feel lucky that I could have quick chat albeit up the hill lol and later on before you went on stage . All the best x

Hi David
Hope you’re keeping well and enjoying your slightly reduced workload?!
I’m just thinking about getting packed for next weekend at Bognor Butlins – really looking forward to seeing you – actually thought I would never get that chance again so I’m “Over the Moon” about it – sorry just couldn’t resist that one – I do know it’s really corny!

Hi David, Yesterday, I dropped my ATFOTF mug, and it smashed to smithereens! well disappointed, and have used it everyday since the tour of the show! Is it possible to buy any of your mugs, or have they sold out?! Thanks, Love Sally (Essex)xxx
Sorry Sally, we don’t have any.
Thanks David for your reply to the explanation for the ‘courtesy of his mum’. A nice joke, I thought your mum had maybe bought you an instrument when your were a child that yiou used in this LP Take care and I look forward to seeing you in ‘Legends Live’ in October! Love Julie (From Hull) xx
Hi
I have been a big fan of David since 1972.
I have brought alot of David’s merchandise records, dvd’s,books and tour items etc over the years but their is one thing I would love to own, one of David’s old waist coats , I would have it framed and have it proudly placed on my wall. Could I obtain one of David’s old waist coats, I would gladly pay the cost for any arrangement.
Many thanks
Dave White.
Sorry Dave, but David has sadly neglected keeping things from his career. So as far as memorabilia is concerned, there is very little.
Kind regards

Hi dave
Stumbled on the web site, quiet Saturday for
Before the season starts!!
Delayed a trip to Italy, when a mate said you
Would beattending a charity ball , at the curve
Leicester, ended up on a table with Lesley
Joseph, lovely lady, and the performing magician
Grabbed be as his assistant….
As soon as I was able tried to find you, Nikolai
Was on his own, and told me you had
remembered the football past dave Buckley
Etc ( how’s he) ? Said you hadn’t felt too good
And had left early, I couldn’t come to the de mont
Gig, as had to catch the italy flight next day!
Small world when Nikolai told me , he had
Produced ” all the fun of the fair” in the west end’
What a lovely guy he is…
Goes without saying would be good to catch up
Leicester v west ham home or away!
Promise not to do my David Essex impression!
Ps apparently you saw my leicester city mate
Mac and his wife in Barbados too
Look after yourself , hope you had a great
Birthday
All the best
Kev

Hi David
Hope you are having a very happy 70th birthday today ! My partner purchased a David Essex LP from his local garden centre last week It is just entitled ‘David Essex’ from 1974 and you have your ‘Stardust’ white suit on. It says on percussion David Essex (courtesy of his mum) – I wondered if you could shed some light on the courtesy and how your mum was involved please? Love Julie (from Hull) x
It was a joke Julie- David
