Question for David about Out On The Street
I’ve loved this album since I first heard it in 1976.
Was it supposed to be s concept album? It certainly has that feel.
Side 1 Track 1 and Side 2 Track 1 are in my opinion mini-epics and the whole album showcases some of David’s best songwriting.
Hi there, it’s my mums birthday on 1st March and she is literally your biggest fan and goes to all your concerts, and has every bit of merchandise! It would literally make her year if you would be able to send her a signed photo, if that would be possible!
My Mum has loved David Essex since the 70s and she will be turning 60 in a few months. Would it please be possible to get a signed photo for her? Thank you x
Hi, its my mother in laws 60th next month. We had her tickets to see
David in October but due to Covid she couldn’t go. Would we be able to get a signed photo?
Hi, I have just found out that my mum used to have a poster of David on her wall growing up! Please would it be possible for her to receive a signed photo? It would really brighten her year!
Hi!!!!
It’s my mum’s birthday in May….. she’ll be 74. I’ve been coming to your shows with her for almost 40 years. Hoping to get her to meet you 1 day! I’ve bumped into you a few times but mum’s never been with me! Typical! Coming to VIP in Brighton in September although the rescheduled date is now my daughters 11th birthday and they can’t change it, so not sure what we’re going to do!
Anyway, if you could send a video birthday message to her, she’d die with excitement!!!! Her name is Pat and she absolutely loves you…..I have a guilty crush too tbh!!
Let me know what charity you support and I’ll make a donation to say thankyou!!!!!
Take care and stay well.
Thankyou
Nikki.
Hi Nikki, thank you for you message. David would be more than happy to send a signed photo to your Mum. If you’d like that, please leave details of your Mums name and where to send it on here. It won’t be published.
Hello Heidi, David would be happy to send a signed photo for her birthday. If you’d like that, please leave an address and your Mums name on here, it won’t be published.
Hi David. Do you do any personalised video messages by any chance? Like the ones you can buy on cameo? I would love to buy one for my mother in law for mother’s Day. She is a huge fan and has had a really tough few years losing her son and husband. Thanks
Hello Rachel, David would be more than happy to send a signed photo. If that’s ok, please leave details of where to send it and your mother in laws name. It won’t be published on her.
Hi, my manager has been with our business 20 years and David is her pin up. I wanted to see if you could send her a signed photo to celebrate her 20th anniversary from David?
David
My good friend is both celebrating her birthday and retiring at the beginning of March. The last few years have been tough both personally and professionally. To remind her of fun times seeing you in concert l would love for her to receive a signed photo.
With thanks and best wishes.
I was looking on the site for a signed picture for my friends mum. I can’t seem to find an option to buy one? Can you help me please? She has been shielding for nearly a year and is such a massive fan I’m hoping it will lift her spirits
Hello Katherine, David would be more than happy to send your mum a signed photo. Please leave your Mums name and where to sen it on here, it won’t be published.
Just finished reading ‘A Charmed Life’ by David.
I have to admit that I knew precious little about David’s career and private life before I opened the book, but after having read avidly (finishing the book in 2 days!), I just want to say that David is an interesting and inspirational man, and I would heartily recommend the book to any fan of David’s, or anyone interested in how hard work and belief can help you pull through.
Hello, I sent a message through here for my mums birthday but it got deleted? Any gesture from David on her 70th birthday would be great. Sent an email through also. Thank you 🙂
Is it possible to send my mum a 70th birthday wish please. She’s a huge lifelong fan & now unable to get out to anymore shows due to poor health & would love to cheer her up somehow xxx thank you
Hi David
I just wanted to thank you so much for the signed photograph for the occasion of my 60th birthday on the 6th Match, it has just arrived. It has made my day and my birthday! Take good care. Really looking forward to seeing you in Sheffield. Julie from Hull. Xx
Hi there, hope everyone is staying well. It was my mum Elaine’s birthday in December and I emailed a fan mail address but wasn’t able to get a response, I was hoping it would still be possible to get a signed photograph or mail from David. It’s been a tough past year (as I know it has been for many) but I know something like that would mean the world to her! Let me know, thanks alot
Hello, I’ve been a fan of David since the 70’s. Would it be possible to have a signed photo of David as it’s my 65th birthday in March and would make my day. Thank you.
Hi David
I am pleased to hear you have been given your Covid vaccine. I will feel relieved when I have been vaccinated. I will be 60 on the 6th March and was wondering if I could be cheeky haha and request a signed photograph from you to mark the occasion please. I have been a devoted fan since 1973. Thank you so much. Stay safe and well and all your family too. So looking forward to seeing you in September in Sheffield. Fingers very crossed that your tour will not have to be postponed again, but no worries at all if it does, it will be such a meaningful tour whenever it happens. Love Julie xx
Thank you again.
Hi, it’s my mums 60th birthday coming up and I was hoping to get her something signed, she’s a huge fan and I know this would something she would love. How much is a signed photo please?
Glad to hear you had the covid jab hope you feel ok after it let’s hope the vaccine supply keeps coming and we can all have the jab and hopefully get some kind of life back xx
I just had a pleasant surprise, I have been listening to a series of podcasts by the great Steven Wilson and Tim Bowness called The Album years. it was originally aired at the tale end of last year and i’m just catching up. They discuss a year in music, mainly with a progressive rock slant. No music is played, it is just a discussion about albums released in the particular year. Episode 12 is 1974 and one of the albums they discuss as one of the best is the David Essex album, in particular the production of Jeff Wayne. From the basis that the podcasts generally talk about prog rock, it was great to hear that Mr Essex was held in such high regards. worth a listen.
keep safe.
Hi David & Team,
I wondered if it would be possible to get a signed photo for my mum for her 60th Birthday?
Having to celebrate in lockdown is going to be tough and I want to make it as special for her as possible.
Fingers crossed.
Thank you in advance (hopefully)
Xxx
My sister Elaine Devine is retiring at the end of Feb. She lives in Bournemouth and never misses a concert of David’s. Could I ask either for a signed photo or a few words from David via email. I have written a request but had no reply to date.
I have made a retirement memory box – a few lines or photo from David would be the icing on the cake. Many thanks
Evening David
I was asked recently …can you remember some of the most funniest moments in your life …..one of them which has this evening set me off laughing so much …it’s made my evening ..was standing in a queue for your book signing in blue waters ..my sister is a huge fan .and of course she drags me along ….(I became an accidental one .if you can call it being a fan it’s more an appreciation of an artist who happened to be gor blimey he’s handsome too. .however I’m pleased I did ….) any way in this que in front of us was a man dressed identical to you hair clothes mannerisms he must of practiced that for ages because he even created similar vibration to yours …. I had to look few times I was so taken back at the similarity and being a people watcher I glued my eyes on him ..so he gets to you you look up and the expression on your face was brilliant ..to die for you tried so hard to act oblivious and calm professional ..I just could not stop laughing ..it was an honour, previldge whatever one calls these copycats …And of cause hand of applaud that there partners love you so much …he’s gone out of his way to make her happy so well done anyway to him , what a gem …but David it was so funny your eyes spoke a 1000 unspoken words and your expression a marvel ….what a great guy you are ..this moment will forever bring laughter to me ….I’m grateful I witnessed it
Just think your gorgeous been in my life since the 70s i eas a model but life goes on love you as my idol always but im.just a fan always im my heart ❤
Dear David Essex
I felt compelled to write to you today, after last night watching “Back in Time for the Corner Shop – 1970” with Sara Cox, on BBC 2.
They played the introduction of “ Hold Me Close” even now this song makes me and all of us smile.
Sara Cox teased the mum and daughter in how your twinkly eyes, made all us teenage ladies swoon, and even now in our golden years!
Looking back I wished I’d kept all the tickets of the concerts, pantomines, and the theatre productions I’ve seen you in, they would have made wonderful wall pictures.
But one memory I cherish to this day….I went to a lot of of the concerts with my daughter, but we never managed to get front row seats!
However, when you and your band were in Southampton, we managed to rush to the front of the stage, where you took the Rose from me and held it to your heart, you then stayed in front of myself and daughter…..you really do have the most sparkly eyes!
Well David, Thank you….for all the wonderful memories you’ve given us all.
Keep safe and well David, and everyone
Best wishes from Gilly .x.
ps. I haven’t written to you for ages!!
I have sent a couple of messages one on the 21st and another on the 22nd, I initially asked for a birthday video message from David for my mums 60th, and then saw your replies to others saying he is happy to send a signed photo instead, so I sent my second message on the 22nd asking for just this. I haven’t had a response but can see other messages have been replied to since, so just sending this in case my messages didn’t come through? It would be great if something could be sent to my mum for her birthday on the 4th February, her name and address are as follows:
Hi Sophie, I’m so sorry, I’m not quite sure how and why I haven’t replied to you! Rude!! I’m blaming it on home schooling, sorry.
A signed photo is on its way to your Mum.
Take care
My Mother in law is a huge David Essex fan and is turning 60 on the 2nd of February. She has had a tough year, as I am sure Is the case for many and I was wondering if I could get a signed photo or an email of who to contact to get one. Thanks!
Hello. My mum is a big fan of David’s and turns 70 on Feb 9.
Is it possible to have a video message for her as it will cheer her up in these difficult times.
Hi, just checking on this – as it’s not very responsible for people to give their home addresses on a message board – I assume the responses don’t come up?
It’s my friends 50th birthday on Sunday, I have bought her VIP tickets to the show but wondered if I could get a signed birthday card from David to her?
Hi. My Mum is a massive fan and turns 70 at the end of this month. Any chance you can send a Happy Birthday message please, it would really brighten her day especially as we can’t be together because the current situation. Hoping you can help. Many thanks.
Video message would be fantastic if possible please. Her name is Christine and she is 70 on 26 January.
Hey!
It’s our mum’s 60th on 25th Jan and she’ll obviously be spending it in lockdown. As we can’t celebrate with her we’re creating her a video with messages from her favourite person and she’s such a big fan! Is there anyway we’d be able to get a message from David? Her name is Kim.
Thanks
My wonderful mother is turning 60th on 25th January and she is a huge David Essex fan. She tells us all the time about going to David Essex groups with her friends. Is there any way of David Essex recording a birthday message for her please?
This is a huge thank you to David for sending back the items for my friend Larissa, received back today up north. She will be delighted when she receives them for her birthday in February. Thanks for your time in doing this David.
Both Larissa and I look forward to Sheffield and Newcastle, really hope we can all experience the joys of the tour this year instead.
In the meantime, my best wishes to you and your family.
Stay well and safe,
Paula
My Mum is a huge David Essex Fan and her 60th Birthday soon and we will be in lockdown for it so wondered if we could get a signed photo to cheer up her 60th?
Stay safe everyone
My mother is a big fan of yours and has been listening to your music for as long as I have been born.
She’s turning 60 this year and I wondered if it was at all possible to get her a happy birthday video message?
I think she would love this and it would put a massive smile on her face.
Many thanks,
Dan
Hi,
Is it possible to get a video message for my Mums ‘lockdown birthday’?
Obviously happy to pay for this or make a charity donation.
Many Thanks, Mark
Hello Mark, David would be more than happy send a signed photo wishing your Mum a happy birthday. If that’s ok please leave details of your Mum’s name and an address in here, it won’t be published on here.
Hi
It’s my mam’s 91st birthday in February is it too late to ask David if he could possibly send to her birthday wishes on a photo or card it would be a really nice surprise. She is a big fan of David’s
But hasn’t been able to attend any concerts for a while now due to not been too well.
Many thanks
Michael
Hi Michael, David would be more than happy to send a signed photo to your Mum. If you can leave an address and your Mums name on here we can sort that for you.
Hi, it’s my mums 60th Birthday on Feb 5th and she is a massive fan of David. I was wondering if I could get something signed?! We will still be in Lockdown on her birthday, so this would absolutely make her day!!
I’m wondering if you remember my parents. They ran an Off license in Barking called West Minster Wines around 1964? You was a Customer with your Girlfriend Maureen. I’m tracing by Family Tree and wondered if you remembered them. You once knocked for a packet of Cigarettes after Closing Time on our Flat Door and my dad gave you some.
A very Happy Christmas David and family. I really hope 2021 is a better year and that your concerts go ahead in September. Can’t wait to see you in Sheffield! Stay safe and well. Love Julie (Hull). Xx
Would it be possible for David Essex to wish Ma’am Hullock a merry Christmas from himself and her future son in law? She is his number one fan, obviously we wish him a merry Christmas too
Dear David,
Wishing you & your family A Wonderful Time at Christmas!
Jingle Bells, jingle Bells, jingle all the way, oh what fun it is to see West Ham win away…
COYI!!!!
Love Sally X (Essex)
Thanks so much for the quick reply, this will make our nans Christmas.
Sincerely thank you for taking the time to do this, in what has been a very hard year this will put such a smile on nans face. Have a very merry Christmas and keep safe and well.
David. Really hope you are well . I havent been able to see you for a while because of my parkinsons. But I still look up you as I have for the last 40 years. I sometimes like watching tTop of the pops from the seventies and l always hope that you make an appearance on there. Lots of love x
Our 88 year old Nan is a massive fan of David, we had tickets for the tour this year which has been moved due to Covid. Nan recently tested positive for Covid herself but has managed to chew it up and spit it back out. She is now well on the road to recovery. We would love to get a personalised signed photo for her for Christmas and I wonder if you could help us.
Many thanks
Angie
Hello Angie, so pleased to hear your Nan recovered from Covid. If you can leave her name and an address David will be more than happy to send a signed photo.
Hi,i ordered a David Essex Retro T Shirt,it was dispatched on 27th November but i havent received it yet. Hope you can sort it out for me.
Many Thanks
Lesley Murphy
Hi,
I hope that you are all keeping well in these trying times. Sending love and best wishes. Im hoping that I can be cheeky, its my mums birthday on the 5th of January and she’s going to be 60! She has been a huge fan of Mr. Essex forever. She even jokes that the only reason that she married my dad was because he looked like Mr.Essex when they were younger. Anyway, I was hoping that I could get a card or Autograph, from Mr. Essex to give to mum for her birthday, It would really make her year. I hope you can help or direct me to a site where I can buy one from please. Thank you so much in advance.
Nikki xx
Hi! [relatively young] fan here. Christmas wouldn’t be the same without A Winter’s Tale. Found your music through my mum and have loved it since I was little.
Also saw a few people asking about the location for the video and the rocks are definitely Combestone Tor and the rest is definitely Dartmoor (the house might be Bleak House but I’m not sure there’s a lot of ruins there)
Hello! It’s my Mum’s 60th birthday in January, she is a long time David Essex fan. She still has her scrap book from her teens of pictures and stories of David and I can’t count how many times I’ve heard “Alexa, play David Essex” coming from the kitchen!
I was wondering if there is a fan mail address I could possibly send a birthday card for David to sign or a signed pic? This would bring a massive boost to what will probably be a very low key 60th due to the pandemic.
Hi could you please wish my wife a very happy birthday for December 5th she has been a fan of yours since she was 11 and she celebrated her 60th birthday last year . Looking forward to the tour next year Have a great Christmas and a very happy new year xxx
It’s my Mum’s 60th birthday coming up and I’ve been looking to see if David does any paid video messages or similar for her special day – she’s a big fan!
Do you remember the poll tax / Community Charge from the 1980s I refuse to pay it and was sent to prison for 4 weeks and this little skinny man next to me claim to fame was he broke into David Essex house. So I said who do you mean the actor from the feature film Stardust, he replied yes.
I hate house burglars I just thought perhaps you would be pleased to know that he was a skinny little man with sticky fingers who did his time and his claim to fame was he burgled your house. I would not like somebody to burgle my house! but considering it was so many years ago it may amuse you. I do not think it would amuse me come to think of it. I bumped into your website so I posted this.
Hi all, hope you’re all well. I see further down the page you’ve answered someone regarding Potters. As of a Week ago they’re still telling myself ( probably others too) that theyre awaiting confirmation on a new date from yourselves regarding a new Date for next Year! And thus, still holding onto our deposit! I’m not stupid enough to know Potters don’t know what’s going on, but it’s pretty unfair to pass the buck to you, saying it’s you that are holding back on confirming, when they obviously know & are not refunding our deposits!
Hi people, my partner of 18 years has always been a fan of David’s. its her 55th birthday at the end of the month. ive been looking on the “celebrity vm” sites for a personal message for her but i cant find David anywhere. Is he on any of them or is there any way of getting a little video message from him? any help would be appreciated. Many thanks.
Hello Andrew, David would be more than happy to send a signed photo for her birthday if you leave details of her name and an address to send it to on here, which won’t be published.
Dear David
Thank you so much for the lovely surprise card for my 60th birthday. Made my day very special, particularly during these difficult times. I had so been looking forward to your Palladium concert to celebrate, so it was a wonderful gift & I’ll never stop smiling about it. (Thanks too to my dear friend Cathy Reevell & Editor)
Thank you too for all the years of fantastic songs, music, films, theatre, & concerts. Loved it all.
Wishing you, your family, friends, & fans safe keeping. Take care, & look forward to seeing you in 2021, when hopefully we will all be able to share even more special times together.
Hi David, your 2021 calendar arrived this morning. I love all the photographs and it will bring me great happiness in these awful times. Take good care and stay safe and well. Love Julie from Hull. xx
Hi I want to order a calender and a mug
But I see you are charging me £5 per item even though
I’m ordering them together and paying in the same order
Yet I’m getting two delivery charges
Is this right
Carol
Ok so we have the tour rescheduled for next year! But whats happening with Potters? Are we actually going to get a new date for this event next year? We dont seem to be getting any information, Potters is up and running to its best! So why are we not getting a new date to look forward too?
Dear David,
Had a Lovely, Rainy Sunday afternoon watching the Secret Live Tour -David Essex, with my Grandaughter (21 months), her face was a picture, at the beginning, then she fell asleep!! But, I enjoyed the rest of the show!
Love Sally (Essex) X
Hi ya David.
I’m watching a re run of Top of the Pops January 1983 and have just watched you singing A Winter’s Tale. Please can you tell me where the video was filmed? It looks like possibly Dartmoor? Can you please clarify for me?
I so love that song.
Lots of love Madeleine. Xxx
Hi all, does anyone know if David does personalised messages on websites like cameo for a fee ? Mums 60th birthday at the end of the month, meant to be going to see David in concert but obviously not happening in the current situation. Any advice would be appreciated 🙂
Hello Stephen, David would be more than happy to send a signed photo to your Mum if you leave details of her name and where to send it on here. It won’t be published.
Tomorrow would of been our first concert of 10 booked……… such awful times ..hoping all is well and it will go ahead in 2021 but?……….. Hope all is well with you and yours ,take care and stay safe love to all….xx
Hi, my mum is a massive David Essex fan and it would make her day to have a birthday wish from him for her 60th birthday, would this be possible at all? Thanks Talli
Hello Chantal,David would be more than happy to send a signed photo to your Mum. Please leave details of her name and where to send it on here, it won’t be published.
Hi all, hope you’re all well. I should Today be travelling down South for Tomorrow’s Sarfend concert. Instead I’m removing carpet gripper rods I’m so Rock & Roll. So I shall have my own little concert Tomorrow with copious amounts of Rioja to drown my sorrows & hopefully in 2021 I can do it properly. Stay safe all, best wishes
Trace, xx
Hi! My mother, Louise, turns 60 on October 9th, and I am currently unable to go see her due to a local covid lockdown. She’s extremely upset about this and I really want to cheer her up! She is one of David Essex’s biggest fans! I’ve been brought up on his music, and even got to see him in concert last year! I can see why my mother is obsessed! She always tells me the story of how David kissed her hand during a concert when she was younger, and she refused to wash her hand for months after!
I was wondering if it was possible for David to send my mother a video message wishing her a happy 60th birthday?!
Thanks so much!!!
Hi. I am a massive fan of Davids. Loved him since the 70’s. it is my 70th birthday on 20th October and had tickets to see him on this day at London Palladium and also tickets for Potters. Would absolutely Love it if i could get a signed photo or card from him for this special day. Thank you. Love Heather
Hi I work in a care home and we have a 65 year old lady who absolutely adores David Essex.
Is there anyone that can help me get a signed autograph for her ?
Or any memorabilia
Thanks
Hello! My mum (Mary) is a HUGE David Essex fan. When she was young, about 13/14.. David was performing at the Hammersmith Apollo, she waited outside to try and meet him but too many people. As David’s car was driving away my mum thought it would be a good idea to chase his car. As the car came out of the Apollo, it ran over my mums foot and she ended up in hospital. Only a very minor injury but she still says it was the best concert and best experience of her life. A signed picture would mean the world.
Hi, My partner had her big 60th birthday on 25th August this year and spent it in KOS, I forgot to send this email asking for a message from David, so would appreciate if one could be sent to her. she is looking forward to seeing him again next year in Newcastle, one of her treats for her birthday was the show, so this would make her day.
Hello, I wonder if you could give me some information regarding my order for the Silver Dream Racer Collectors Edition Set?
I pre ordered the set and was told it would ship on the 31st of August, but as of yet, I have not received any delivery or update email, and the Hermes tracking website still has no information regarding the order?
My mother who is a huge fan of David has a big birthday this year. I wonder if there is anyway to get her a personalised signed photo? It would make her birthday!
Hello Melissa, David would be happy to send a signed photo wishing your Mum a happy birthday. Please leave details of your Mums name and where to send it on here. It won’t be published.
Kind regards
D E Management
Good evening David.
Would like to say, as the postponed tour dates get closer I’m more in need of a night of your music.
So , instead I had one in my lounge.
I love so many of your album songs .
Enjoyed your contribution to The Real Thing doc. Not Mrs Lakes so much. Haha.
IMO you don’t need anyone to make you sound better.
Is there any likelihood Alan documentary on you will ever see the day of light.
Still hope you are keeping well.
All the best.
A music fan

Dear David …thank you for Maria’s birthday wish …she was amazed …also oops slight error in last message I meant to write your oldies as in your earlier songs and not you oldies ha ha sorry
Hello David
Your newest and maybe oldest fan was 91 on the 16th August (same day as Madonna and as fiery lol ) we’ll not so much now …Any way since I introduced her to you oldies and taught her to sing along whilst I was housekeeping she likes you loads ha ha ha
Unfortunately after looking after her for 5 months during lockdown without her usual 4 carers to help I developed carpal syndrome and some nerve damage to my arm due to weight baring she’s not light weight typical little old Italian lady beautiful and eloquent anyhow I had to take her back to Peterborough where she gets all the necessary help and a hoist ..she was very upset and sad but so was I and still feel bad it’s like iv abandoned her . However I keep going back and forth from Wickford to Peterborough to be with her …so to cheer us both up can you still wish her a happy 91st anyway she will be surprised maybe bit confused that it’s directly from you …in her era or younger days these things just didn’t happen you adored your artist from afar ……very unlikely that one would receive a birthday greeting …just didn’t happen …(we are so lucky today all is much more accessible and our adored artists have a personal touch and reach out to us there fans).
Apologies for long message
Her name is Maria luigia Pozza sounds rather nice that ha ha ha
Anna
I have just found the ticket for my first ever concert in Manchester at the Free Trade Hall in 1974. Ticket price would you believe £1.50. Earls Court balcony in 1976 £2.00 amazing times
Hi there you told me that Bembridge was one of the locations to go to on the Isle of Wight when l go… with regard to the locations used in the film That’ll Be The Day… I am not sure what l am looking for in Bembridge? Are you able to advise please? that would not be the church hall used in the film for the wedding scenes would it? Cant think what else itmay be that Bembridge would have been the location for? Any help would be wonderful and you do not need to publish this. Thank you so much … will send a card to you for David to sign. Thank you. Cathy Reevell.
Hi Cathy, if you look down the messages to where you first posted, I’ve given you some locations in a reply. But if you type in TBTD filming locations in Google, the locations will come up, hope that helps.
Sorry you’re having trouble with getting answers Pamela, unfortunately this is not down to us, please try – csgonzomultimedia@gmail.com and do let me know if there’s still problems.
Hi,i purchased,a David Essex signed dvd All the fun of the fair and a fantastic colourful ceramic David Essex live mug,they got dispatched on 22nd June,but i havent received them yet,and i,’m a bit concerned.Do you have any idea whats happened,and will i still receive them? Hope you can sort it out
Many thanks
Lesley Murphy.
Thank you so much for answering both of my questions. I will indeed visit Shanklin and Bembridge when l visit the Isle of Wight in October… Lockdown permitting!
Secondly thank you that David will sign a card for my friends 60th birthday. Do l need to send one to you with postage?
Hi David belated birthday wishes I’m sure you had a nice peaceful one …hopefully by the sea with the sunshine … and your family
After reading all the messages here with regards to potters ect …just a thought how practical would it be to do a zoom concert ..That would be amazing .i was so looking forward to cliff pavilion which happened to be on my birthday , so was going to be a special one for me ….it would have been best birthday ever … Seriously David could it be done some how?
We could pay for tickets and then your events team could send us the link for zoom …I suppose you would have to limit the numbers but like your on tour concerts …they could schedule one day For each city or county . They may have of course already looked into this …can it be done or is this one of my far fetched pipe dreams lol ….one has to try ….after all without dreams the soul loses it’s magical light ……Be safe be happy be kind Anna
Thanks for your message Anna. A very interesting idea but I’m afraid at the moment it won’t be possible. Looking forward to the concerts next year. Best wishes – David
Second request, l dont know if this is possible but wondering if you can advise me please? Is it possible that David would sign a card for my friends 60th birthday in September please? Does he also send signed photos? I would be happy to supply a card, pay any costs and postage involved of course. Does he have any birthday cards for sale? Could not see any in Merchandise selection?! Thank you.
Hi there,
Regards to David and his family and hope you are all safe. I am thinking of travelling to the Isle of Wight for a holiday and know That’ll Be The Day was filmed there. It was one of my favourite films of the 70s. I wondered if anyone knows of locations used in the film? A lot of them may well be gone now but does anyone know of anyone who would know? Could you ask them to contact me please? If no one can help me here l will write a letter to the leading newspaper on the Island as l know that local folk there were extras in the film. I have googled it and can see Shanklin, Ryde are places to visit and Wooten .Can anyone help? l would be very pleased to have something positive to do in this difficult time. Am planning the trip in October … as far as you can plan these things at the mo! Stay safe folks! Cathy Reevell.
Hi Cathy, it was Warner’s Puckpool / St Cleres Holiday camp in Ryde, sadly derelict now. Also Ponting’s Little Canada Holiday camp. When Jim/David goes to see the bands playing when he’s supposed to be at night school, that was the Shanklin Theatre, Prospect Road Shanklin. The school scenes were filmed at Sandown High School. Also scenes on Shanklin pier. And last but not least Meaders Road in Ryde where Jim’s Mum’s shop was, the building is still there, but not a, shop! Hope that helps. Xxx

It is so sad that you come close to Norfolk and go to Ispwich in Suffolk. Please could you home to Theatre Royal Norwich one day. Used to come to every concert there and mostly both nights sat in one of front 2 row seats.
We can always hope, Norwich and Norfolk still love you.
Firstly, let me start by saying… Hope you and family are staying well and safe.
Secondly, I’ve just pre ordered the Silver Dream Racer Collectors Boxset, and its about time the film got a special release, its a brilliant movie, and just so happens to be my favourite of all time.
And lastly, would you happen to remember where the two exterior locations were in London that were used for your flat and the Sapphire club in the movie?
Hello Paul, thank you for you message and kind words. One location was at Shepherds Bush and the other was in the city I believe. The Sapphire Club, I’m sorry I have no recolection!
Best wishes – David
Dear Team
Thank-you for passing on my querie about my order.
They e-mailed a couple of days later and I have received my mug.
Now for a cuppa!!

Hi,
I ordered a CD and retro mug. I received my CD and had an email to say that mug was posted on 22nd June but it has not arrived. Please advise. Thank you.

Sorry for being such a grump, I’ve had the worse 18 months of my life & really needed something to look forward to. But yep Potters seemed blissfully unaware that David had cancelled when I spoke to someone there. It’s now changed on their website. Although they are replying to emails saying they don’t know what’s happening!!! Guessing they obviously need our deposit more than we do!
Hi David, Great news, Tour has been rescheduled until next year! Sad news about Jack Charlton – “He will remain in football folklore forever.” Cannot wait to receive latest cd!
And, COYI! Love Sally X (Essex)
Hi, just wanted to say a massive thank you for taking the time to read my message, plus thanks to the lovely person who commented on it, I can almost here him saying “you could of done that when I was alive” true legend you are.
Hi everyone hope to find you all heathly, now I know you don’t like nostalgic but I want to share this with you me and my sister have followed you since 1973,we were young but our late brother adored your talent so we went everywhere to see you, so one day we put your cd on and looked all through all of your memorable that my brother had, he left it all to me, and there was a lot, we shed tears for losing our brother as was his anniversary 5yrs ago,all that and ours we have followed you since then, sorry I guess I’m saying all this for my dear brother, got to ask how come you still haven’t released missing tour only thing I haven’t got, thank you for our memories.
Is Potters cancelled? Only it’s still advertised on Potters website? If cancelled why haven’t we be informed? And is it going to be rescheduled? And why? It’s November, we’re only in August & Potters are re- opening!!
Thanks for the reply, I asked b/c I had an email from them Yesterday saying when the balance was due, but where is it stated here on the website, or a tweet from David stating this? It’s the same fiasco as the Sunshine Festival, the organisers saying it’s going ahead & you saying it isn’t! But if everything is being cancelled b/c of this virus, best cancel next year’s tour cos viruses don’t disappear, that’s not how they work! It will be around for Months, if not Years!
Admin, i am really disappointed that you have not printed my issue! It seems that its only the nicey nicey ones that get shown, i was only trying to make you and the fans aware of th problem, i do have other sources to let them know, So instead of passing the buck and taking it personally, i now have received an email from the music company, i would of prefered a direct approach from you, after all its Davids fans that pay your wages!
Hello admin, im just curious as to why my previous query was not printed? As im sure it was not offensive to anyone i just felt it was fare that David and his fans are aware of the prices and more so the P&P charges this Music Glue are charging and the postal costs are not the prices shown on the package! If people are lucky enough to go to the tour, then purchase the items there its cheaper! I do understand that not everyone can go to the tour so therefore the postage should be more reasonable! I do know that alot of fans are really not happy about it but maybe to shy to comment! Clearly this was not thought about properly!
Hello Lorraine, I’m sorry you feel this way. Your message was directed to the company who are selling the online merchandise as they are the best people to help with any problems and answer your queries. As with any new venture it has teething problems and your complaints have been noted.
Hi , I requested a birthday message for my very good friend June , she was 80 plus on June 1st , she has been to see you play several times and has recently recoved from Covid , I sent the card , stamped and addressed for you to sign , Unfortunately she didn’t receive it ! She was disappointed, if you find it and you have time can you sign and send it , thanks
Donna
It was sent back Donna, sorry you haven’t received it. We can send a signed photo if you could let me know where to send it.
Kind regards
D E Management
Thank you so much gonzo multimedia ?- I’m “looking for something” called silver dream racer box set edition -got very much excited – when will the pre-order be up on the David Essex web store please? – noticed it via gonzo music TV YouTube channel
Hi David
My mother in law opened her cards today as it’s her 88th birthday
She is a big fan and saw you at Blazers in Windsor many years ago
Her face lit up when she saw the photo you sent her, she really needed something to cheer her up
Many thanks and take care
Thought I would share this with you if it’s ok.
I shared this song on a David Essex fan Facebook page and had a great response
David if you read this, enjoy.
The main guy behind the band is also an admirer of your music so perhaps it’s not such a surprise that the Essex fans enjoy a bit of prog
Hi, David,
Just to thank you for my signed card for my birthday today. Just listening to your cd, one of my pressies & awaiting delivery of the portrait blanket!!
Thank you for giving me so many happy memories since 1973.
Love,Sharon. Xx
Thank you so much for putting the new album available on download i for one really appreciate it! I am so chuffed to hear A shoulder to cry on on the cd, the album brings back so many fabulous memories of tours gone by
Hi I have bought the new album as a download from Music Monkey and whilst it is a great album the format is not at all user friendly . Luckily for me my son is a computer expert and set it up for me and explained the cost implications to the artiste to use ITunes or Spotify .
Hi David and all the team and the many David fans I’ve met back in the day, well done on the new website shop and new album – one song that i would have liked on there would have been – Ernesto – from the whisper album as it was not on 7t’s CD release of the album not even as a bonus track and I’ve only heard it via a special web page looking back on classic albums and tracks – hopefully this track will see the CD laser light one day – loving the new merchandise also – the blankets especially – big love to all xxxxx
Just seen your Tweet from today with Let it flow . Made me realise my cd that can’t yesterday isn t signed . That would have been lovely . Maybe I will get chance to ask you to sign it next year , hopefully the social distancing will be no more Oh I hope so xx
Oh my ,such happy memories on this new album . Let it flow was always one of my favourites . Such a happy song . Alice stay young and free will always take me back to those fabulous days of all the fun of the fair . We saw it everywhere . Love this album . Love YOU xx
Hi David
Received unplayed today, well it’s now well and truly played. It’s also made me replay some cds that for some reason I hadn’t got out for sometime.
I know you’re not keen on nostalgia but listening to your back catalogue has evoked so many memories, good and not so.
Looking forward to the rescheduled tour have my tickets for Southend and Palladium.
I hope you are keeping well
Lorna
P.S it would be fab to have all your work on Spotify etc so I can listen in my car x
Very disappointed that stay with me baby isn’t on the new album.
The greatest vocal performance by anyone ever and not available on cd. ..it’s a crime.
Could we please have the new cd downloadable for the people who don’t have a cd player, I will be buying it as I prefer the hard copy. Thank and stay safe xx
Firstly thank you David for doing this merchandise, its cheered me up no end! Hope you and family are safe and well, those who have Spotify! Well so do i but i still buy the CD for collection its easy, load on to yr lap top or computer then download! Common girls you must know someone who can do it for you and just be grateful hes still here trying to keep most of us happy! Thank you David for still thinking of us! Stay safe!
Thank you David for the fab new merchandise available. So looking forward to receiving my goodies. Great variety to choose from.
For those asking for a download, buy the CD & rip it to your Computer!!!! I’m sure most of you know someone with a disc drive if you don’t have one yourself!
Hi David. I love that you have released a new album, is there any possibility that it will make its way on to Spotify?
Hope you and your family all keeping safe and well. ❤️
Thank you David for rearranging the Tour to 2021,
Would it be possible for the CD to be downloaded on here somewhere as a lot of fans do not own a CD Player any longer.
Stay safe and well. Angela L.
Dear David, would it be possible if your new CD could be available on Spotify or iTunes as not all of your fans have CD players, thank you in advance, look forward to seeing you next September xx
Hi,all, hope you’re all safe & well still in these strange times. My family are ordering the new cd & blanket for my birthday, brought out just in time!!
I’ve never followed anyone except David since 1973, obvs got tickets for tour, disappointed, but, health of all concerned important.
I wondered would it be possible to get a signed card for my birthday, please?( June 21st…… longest day, summer solstice & Fathers day this year!!)
Thank you in anticipation.
Sharon Prosser.
Hi David, what fab news having a new mix of old and new songs on the new cd especially excited that you have put A shoulder to cry on and Stage struck on it too, a couple of great memories of past fabulous tours among other epic songs thank you, will this be available on itunes and spotify? Stay Safe x
Soooo sorry that you have had to cancel this years Tour. I have been awaiting Hip Surgery that has been put off, so hopefully by next years your CoronaVirus will be well behind us and I will be the new owner of a new Hip to be able to Dance at the show. For me The Palladium. It’s my Birthday on the 28th oh the month (June) can I be cheeky and request a Birthday Card. I had one for my 65th a couple of years ago that I have framed, but nothing would cheer me up with everything going on, line my not being able to see my kids and grandkids than a Birthday Card to treasure this year. Thank you so much in advance. Jan from Reading ( you have come across me before, more than once lol lol ) lots of love to you and your Family David who will be going through the same as the rest of us, and all you admins. Take care n Stay Safe – Jan xx
I ve just ordered the new CD. What a fabulous surprise today! Some of my favourite songs on there , especially Shoulder to cry on, Never meant to hurt you . and She s emotional. Thankyou and see you next year , lots of love xxxxx
Love the new shop on the website. Already ordered the cd. I understand why the tour was cancelled, better to make sure everyone is safe, I have still been working as I Care for elderly and disabled people and I work nights. Hope you and the family are staying safe and can’t wait to see you in September 2021.
So glad Tour rearranged can celebrate my 70year in style just got to rearrange hotels and all sorted x Ordered two CDs 4 me and Soo she.ll love it and a few mugs too add to my collection x im still on lockdown due to health issues 97 day but seeing grandchildren and seeing you is keeping me going x stay safe all of you x see you always x Cazz and Soo xxx
Such a relief this years tour has been postponed and not cancelled – much appreciated this has been done sooner rather than later (before theatres get booked up for next year). It’s impossible to social distance in packed theatres.
We’ve well and truly had our wings clipped…will never take freedom for granted again!
Thanks again for the trouble of re-arranging everything.
Next years tour will be all the more special!
Take care

Hi David hope your keeping safe, well and your family…. I went to Peterborough just before lock down to pick up my Xmother in law as both my xhusband and his sister work and live in Dubai . No other family around . So she was one of the vulnerable ones … who would have been at risk .Although she had 4 carers in place I just didn’t want to leave her isolated on her own ….so brought her back her to Wickford in Essex …she is 90 years old disabled and deaf to add to the scenario . I’m lucky I live in 500 year old cottage on 6 aches and a huge pond in front of the house …it looks like a mini lake it’s that big . So lock down for my self my dogs and mum as I still call her (it’s italian thing we use ) have been lucky to have the space to enjoy our tranquil surroundings. During this time I’ve been keeping her entertained etc and I decided to tell her about my visits to your concerts etc .she was not sure who you were or your songs and so I played your songs showed her your picture ..so now she has learnt to sing hold me close …(her English not that good ha ha ) and she says data Davido eehsaa Verie bellismo man ah olda dissa man haha ha so I told her and she replies ahhh mabbee dissa man ah gonna marrie me ha ha ha ha I did laugh so funny she thinks of course your very handsome every morning when I get her dressed and ready for the day she always ask you play dissa song oldamee clossa. And we sing it together Ha ha ha so now during lock down you have yo just acquired a 90 year old fan …apologies for long message I just wanted to create the image for you ha ha her name is Maria she is a beautiful humble person and every day says to me how grateful she is that I brought her here .and so could you Please say hello to her if you have time and I can then show her it she would be very happy I’m sure and it would make my day to see her face light up
Thank you
Anna
Gutted the tour has been cancelled for this year…we were so looking forward to all the ones we have booked with the new dates we have even been able to add a few more …but so so pleased its just postponed….its a long way off but better to keep us all safe and its just gonna be amazing when we are all back together back on the road, gonna be wild….Would be great if you could include “Here we are Altogether” in the set list……Been playing through all your albums from start to finish amazing all of them…and bring back so many memories from lots of tours past…………Rock On David and stay safe you and your lovely family – You shine like a diamond xx hugs for Levi and Pickle xx
Dear Mr Essex, I am locked down on my yacht in Grenada in the Caribbean. Your music is saving my sanity. We had a huge squall. blow through a couple of days ago. My boat did a very merry dance rocking and rolling all over the place. I could not resist to put up the volume and play Rock On.
Thank you and I hope and yours are well and safe.
Cheers Jeanne s/v Olive
Just wanted to say Thankyou for rescheduling the tour. Disappointed as I am I know it’s the right decision . I was worried we might lose it altogether so very relieved even though it’s over a year away we will get to see you again. I know you ll be keeping safe with your family . Much love to you and see you next year Xxx
Gutted the Tour has been cancelled, another whole Year to wait. I had such a crap Year last Year I needed something to look forward to, looks like this Year is as bad as 2019.
Please stay safe & well, all of You. And fingers crossed nothing goes wrong for next year.
Best Wishes

Hi David,
Thanks very much for the decision to postpone the 2020 tour.
Totally understandable and expected.
Let’s hope the world will be a safer place by September 2021.
It’ s so hard not being able to have contact with my 3 grandchildren and one of my daughters is a frontline nurse in the NHS so lots to worry about.
Well done to all key workers coping in this pandemic.
So pleased the tickets will be valid for next years tour!
Hi David
completely understand and hopefully will be able to see you next year, expect the potters break has been cancelled as well. stay safe and hopefully see you soon.
regards Barbara
Hi can you please inform the fans as soon as possible re cancellation or re scheduling dates due to Covid 19.
We need to know to either cancel travel and hotel reservations.
Other performances from other artists have already cancelled.
Regards Nigel
Hi David Just wanted to say hello. Hope your doing okay and staying safe yourself x just a memory I have as I was a fan when younger. At the age of 17 I worked in London in the 70’s and you were signing your latest single at the time in the HMV Store in Oxford Street. So I rang my sister Sue and she and her friend met me there on my lunch break to see you with all the other screaming teenagers!! Never got time to get my single signed though but saw my pop idol and was happy with that. Good memories x Take care
Just a little hello really in these uncertain times. Lots of memories are up on Facebook. Guess every one is clearing lofts cupboards etc.
Got with it just recently and am using Spotify.
Sad not to be able to get 75 tour album to download.
Loved your Little Richard bits in your ad libbing.
Many memories flooding back.
It’s not just nostalgia it’s the music of our journey.
You have been a massive part in mine.
Thank You for that it has got me through many a day in my isolation journey.
I hope that all the family are well, guessing at your age lol not able to see you.
Take care. With hope, see you in October x
Idevastated about sunshine date being cancelled . I am on my 10th week of lock down so do understand the reasons but I’m still devastated. Oh I so hope the tour doesnt get cancelled what have i to live for but my family x
Hi, I’ve just checked and found out that the Sunshine festival has been postponed until Aug 2021. Do you know if David is still booked to play on the Sat? I know it’s a long way off and none of us know what will happen with this terrible virus. Thanks, hope everyone is well.
Hello Kay, sadly David won’t be performing with the Sunshine Festival being cancelled. They are advertising that he will be performing next year, he has not agreed to that. Hope you and yours are safe and well.
Hi, all,
In this current awful situation, are we to assume that David’s tour will be cancelled/postponed? I’d got tickets for Birmingham, have been on the venue’s website but no mention as yet.
Hello Sharon, the promoters are awaiting advice from the government as we don’t want to put the audience or David, the band and crew at any risk. We will let you know as soon as we do. Stay safe.
Thank you very much for your quick response sending my sister her card she is one happy lady today ..it reduced her to tears sending special thank you to all involved stay safe
Dear David it would be So lovely if your new CD came out in July for your birthday ! my birthday is also in July I’ll be 60 From Susan long time fan from oz
Happy Easter David & Family,
Beautiful Lockdown day, watching ATFOTF, with 1 yr old Grandaughter, she smiled the whole way through! And, was glued to the screen, for Gonna Make You A Star! – A Girl after my own heart! Stay Safe.
Love Sally x (Essex)
Hi David.
I asked you to sign a card for my sister’s 70th birthday. It arrived back with me today. Many thanks for doing this, especially in these trying times. Sandra will be delighted! Take good care of yourself and your family. Looking forward to seeing you in Birmingham, in October
Hi David,
Hope you and your family are keeping well and busy at this difficult time.
hope to see you sometime in the future.in the meantime take care, your in my thoughts and prayers. xx
David, listen mate thanks for all the entertainment over the years. Saw you in West End early 1980s in “Mutiny”. Would have loved to have seen you playing for WHU – better still played with you. Hope you and yours stay safe
Hi David, I am an English entertainer living in Belarus + have been asked to perform at Grodno International Culture + Music Festival, July 2020. I would like to perform both, Oh What A Circus + Tahiti, with your permission + blessing, of course. If I am permitted, could you also supply lyrics of Tahiti. Thank you in anticipation, stay safe, best wishes + regards, John (Belarus
Hi mate .
Another flash back
Watching Brenda Blethyn on itv comedy Kate and Kofi and who’s in it but your 1st wife in That will be the day jeannie i think she was . Rosalind Ayres i never forget a face x stay safe love
Hello David
This is a total long shot! One of my best friends is 60 years young on the 9th August this year. I have been trying to wrack my brains on what would be a really special present for her and you came to mind. She has been an ardent fan of yours for as long as I can remember, and I’ve known her 30 years! She has travelled the length and breadth of the country following you on tour year after year. She has even dragged me to a few concerts in Northampton, Milton Keynes, Liverpool, Manchester where I have had to stand at the stage door whilst she waits for you to come out and sign all her paraphernalia and I take photos! ( don’t worry it wasn’t such a duress)!
She even won an afternoon tea with you in London,I believe! Her house is full of pictures of you and of you & her together at stage doors!
Whether you remember her as she has an unusual Scottish name, COLINA – which I’m sure you’ve had to write many times!
She is the most special, kind, good friend anyone could wish for and I’d like to do something very special and memorable for her on her special day!
Anyway, as I said a long shot but I was wondering if there is anything special you could do for her birthday? A video message, some song lines including her name? I know this would mean the world to her
Many thanks and stay safe
Liz
Hi David..
My name is Michelle…I have been a fan of yours since my early teens…to be honest, you were probably the first love of my life…lol…!
When I heard you were coming out to Australia in 1975, I begged my mum to buy me a ticket, but no amount of ‘chores’ or promises would sway her…her words, “he is way, way too sexy and you are way too impressionable!” I begged and borrowed and got a ticket to your concert on 14th April, 1976 at the Hordern Pavillon in Sydney, Australia…I was over the moon at the thought of seeing you in concert…unfortunately, I became very ill and was unable to go, I was devastated…then, life happened and I never got to see my idol ( yeah you, Mr Essex…☺️)….
Move on to 2019, and I found out you are doing a tour of the UK…I was so excited!! I thought…”I don’t care what it costs, I have to see him in concert”….so I finally managed to get a ticket to your concert in Cardiff in October 2020, flights booked from Australia etc and bugger me, bloody Covid19 rears it’s ugly head……like a cruel twist of fate, and depending what happens in the world, again, I may not get to see your concert
It is the number one priority on my bucket list and has been my all my life…
Hopefully the world will be back to normal come October…I’m not cancelling my flights etc till I absolutely have to…I cannot miss seeing you again…
I hope you and your loved ones remain healthy and safe in this very uncertain time and with luck the world will go back to normal and I will be at your concert in Cardiff…
Take care, stay safe…
Your devoted Aussie fan
Michelle…xx
PS If all is well and I get to Cardiff, could I please get a photo with you…it would be my ultimate wish come true…
Hi David
I hope you and your family are keeping well in this awful pandemic.
I have just watched your last concert performance from Wolverhampton back in 2016, I have really missed seeing you in concert over the last 4 years. I have tickets to see you in Sheffield in October, which was a fantastic surprise that you are touring again, You really cheered me up this morning in these troubled times and I was up dancing in the living room. I hope we all stay safe and well and the virus leaves us in the next couple of months and your tour goes ahead later this year. I hope you and all your family stay safe and well.
Love Julie xx
No matter who we are what we have achieved were we come from right now we are all in the same boat wishing each other to be safe in these strange times ….
Hi David
I have always been a massive fan . I have tickets booked to see you in October. I work for the NHS. Crazy times . God pray we all make it and I’m looking forward to seeing you then . Keeps me going lol
Kay
Hi David
I do hope you and your family are OK in these very difficult times – It is sometimes hard to know exactly what to do for the best but I believe if we all of take sensible precautions and look out for each other we can make the best of it
Stay safe and healthy everyone

Hello,
I just want to say what an amazing career David has had and continues to have, in the entertainment industry.
He has achieved so many wonderful successes and I just wanted to ask if there has been anything produced about his life thus far?
I recently found out that ‘This is your Life’ did a show with David. I have never seen it as I live in Australia, so was hoping it was out on DVD, or you could send me a link to it as I would love to see it.
Thank you.
Sue.
I’ve seen David once (he was brilliant in St David’s Hall , Cardiff) and my wife has seen him twice (she idolises him). I’m on his site to order tickets for his show in St David’s Hall on 19th, October this year. We are both so looking forward to seeing him again. His music covers all genders and generations and he just seems to be getting better with age. Long may he continue to do so. So looking forward to seeing him.
Best wishes
Our Essex is 40 yrs old this week on feb 13th .I met u at Cov theatre stage door not long after she was born . Cant believe it was that long ago . Seems like yesterday x
Hi mate Was watching on tv . Pale horse tonight
Rita Tushingham in it . Reminded me of the film Smashing Time of which she was in and so were you! 1971 another reason to think of u ! Hope u and Sue Sonny amd Levi well
Cazz Nd Soo x
I remember when you lived at end of my road Longhayes Avenue Marks Gate when you played as Drummer in The China Plates at The Bell pub in Ilford on a Sunday night and worked at Plesseys and I at last have tickets to see you again in October and am so pleased to be seeing you again
Hello Sirs,
Can you tell me where the video for the single Winter’s tale was filmed as I watched it just this moment ago and it looked quite bleak and barren and was intrigued.
Hi David and all the admin team. I was sooooo thrilled 2 years ago when I requested and received on my 65th birthday card from David. Can I be the cheekiest person in the whole world and request a Valentines hello card/message. I am a bit down at the moment as waiting for hip replacement surgery. At the moment I can’t do my live of Walking and Dancing. A cheer up card from David would be the best. ( I have followed DAVID for year, and my friends already joke and say that I should be on David personal Christmas Card list by now !!!!) I know this is a silly request but would make my day. Thank you so much , I guess if I hear from you asking for my address again I may have been lucky . I can’t wait til October when I see David at the Palladium Kind regards Jan
Hi David,
Was great to tune in radio, today, as I got in car for some good music, to hear your interview about up and coming tour! Was on way to Brentwood for Birthday lunch, my day was made – was like going on holiday!!! Great choice of songs as always! Get home and my Grandaughter is dancing to Rock on!! Good start to weekend for me! Love Sally (Essex) X
Hello. It’s a bit weird writing this. I desperately want to get a message to David Essex, I doubt he has anything to do with this but maybe just by putting it out there, it might be received. I just want to say thanks to him. For giving my something to hold on to. So my mum died 11 years ago and was a massive lifelong fan (much to the bemusement of her teenage family… sorry, but sure it won’t come as a surprise!) Anyway, when she died we had a non religious service and we had no choice but to play ‘Hold Me Close’ of course. However, Unfamiliar with many other songs and through many tears I trailed the albums and found ‘It’s Going To Be Ok’ and it was like my mum was speaking to me. As a non religious family we don’t believe in going on, we cremate and spread the ashes at the local wind farm so that we can be free in the wind. You see the link. “I hear you calling out to me, I hear the wind whisper in the trees…” I’m rambling… anyway… 11 years on, a quick search on YouTube and she’s back with me again… reassuring me everything is going to be ok. So I just wanted to say thanks to David, don’t know what he is doing on this cold, wet Friday afternoon but I just wanted him to know that for 4 minutes his voice has given me comfort and pleasure. My mum would have been chuffed!

God bless you David.
Thank you David it was great hear you on sounds of the 70s with Johnnie Walker on radio . I been a fan long time since 15 now 59 this year be 60 in July from Australia Susan
Hi , do you know if anyone has 2 tickets for Southend 2/10/2020
My friend has cancer & is desperate to go , her daughter will be with her .
Any suggestions is greatly appreciated
I’ve tried calling the venue but they don’t have any
Thanks for reading
Fingers crossed x
Can I ask Why David is coming to Glasgow and not Edinburgh.? Its not fair. We love him too and some of us are disabled dont drive and cant get to Glasgow.
Hello Pam, it will have been down to the venues that were available for the promotors at the time of booking the tour and all sorts of other logistics. Nothing personal at all as David has always had a wonderful welcome in Edinburgh. I’m sorry to hear that you are unable to make the concert.
Kind regards
D E Management
I hope you and your fans all had a lovely Christmas!
Dear Fans – I purchased 2 tickets to see David Essex at Sheffield City Hall on the 16th October 2020 for my mothers Christmas present.
I managed to get her seats in the front stalls Row A seats 51 & 52, unfortunately she is unable to make it, and having purchased them through Ticketmaster all I can do is resell them. The face value is £42.50 each (I also paid facility charge, service charge, handling fee, and for a pretty gift box) I am happy to sell them at face value or an offer near that and pay for postage to you. Please let me know if you would be interested – I would hate to see them go to waste.
Hello,
I have been a fan of David’s music since I was a teenager but as I live in Australia it has been very difficult to have that love of his music fulfilled. Back then as you were controlled by what was played on the radio and put on tv it was really difficult. I’m very sad to say I have never been able to attend any of his concerts and it breaks my heart. The last concert performance actually falls on my 59th birthday so I just want to wish David all the very best and to let him know I think he was truly ahead of his time with his music. ‘All the fun of the fair’ and ‘Out on the Street’ being a couple of my favourite albums. I have recently been able to discover some of his other albums on Spotify and find so many of his songs so relatable even now. I have been able to source his ‘Royal Albert Concert’ DVD but was wondering if you know if any of his other concerts during the 1970’s are on DVD? This is the only way I can get to feel like I am at his concerts. Thank you so much for your help.
Please check out media on FB relating David’s name to Barbaric videos, ie dog fighting with porcupine – barbaric!
There are several posts linking David’s (David will always be our number one fan) name to advertisements I’m sure he would like having his name linked to.
Hi in answer to your reply to me I have not received the card for my wife Amanda as of yet
I put her full address on the prepaid envelope I’m not sure what could have happened to it
It was for her 60th birthday so a very special occasion I’m still hopeful that it will turn up in the post
Many thanks kind regards
Trevor
Merry Christmas David, Sue, Sonny Levi and Pickle and all the family, hope you have a wonderful Christmas and amazing 2020….love always, and (thanks so much you never fail) xx…..
Hi David, Just seen the sad news about Martin Peters – He was my favourite, back in the day, when I swapped football cards with my Brother. Bobby Moore, Geoff Hurst & Martin Peters. Love Sallyx (Essex) COYI!
We have a patient in the Hospice who is a true fan of yours. In fact her sister and daughters are massive fans of you.
We would love to provide them with a moment of joy during this time. On hearing about them speaking about going to your concerts, the last time being at The Albert Hall we thought if we could get a message from you to them that would be utterly brilliant during this difficult time.
Obviously if you want to come to the Hospice, you will be most welcome at any time. However a simple video message, card would also be a lovely moment for them. Please let me know if you can help.
Hi I posted a sixty birthday card with a prepaid envelope to
David Essex management address for my wife who has been
A fan for over 45 years I was just wondering whether you
Received it as we have not had it sent back to us as of yet
To David & Family,
Have a Great Christmas! 2019 feels like ATFOTF in real life!
Christmas in Plaistow, at my Nanna & Grandads were the Best,
Warm memories of Christmasses Long, Long ago!!! “ I hope that Love & Strength”…
Here’s to 2020!!!
Love Sally x (Ireland)!
Message for David.
We spent quite a bit of time together when I was yours and Ringo’s stand in on That’ll Be The Day when you were on the Island and would be great to meet again. If I come to the Mayflower next year any chance of that.
Dear David Essex admin
Thank you for replying …
Could I please ask in advance for a signed card from David Essex for my birthday on 2/10/20 would much appreciate it
Hello Anna, thanks for your messages. You can send a card nearer the time to
D E Management, PO Box 1018, HORSHAM, RH12 9TQ
Good luck with finding another ticket.
Hello all at admin Essex … I hope you can help I am unable to source tickets for cliff pavilion southend on sea …. I just called and was told there’s no more tickets …wow it’s not until October 2 2020 (my birthday ) what’s happening it’s a year away cannot believe this is crazy …..seriously no tickets …… I so wanted to treat myself I wanted 2 tickets myself and sister but even just one be nice ha ha
Where can I buy these tickets I was told other agencies may have some ….would you have this information if so could you forward on details. I’d really appreciate it.
Perhaps miracles of miracles and since it’s my birthday David might give me a back stage pass and allow me to sit at the side to watch ha ha ha And perhaps not …… worth asking though ,,,,, and I promise I’m quiet , not demanding or pushy
All joking aside if you or anyone here knows where I can get tickets please let me know
And David if you’ve got couple of tickets in your pack pocket …how much mate .
.wishing you well gentle man
Anna
Hello Anna, so sorry Southend sold out very quickly. Hopefully you can make it to another venue although it won’t be on your actual birthday.
Kind regards
D E Management
Hi Anna, sorry to hear you couldn’t get tickets for Southend. You have to be really quick to get tickets for that venue, they always sell out within the first week of going on sale, it’s always a popular concert. As soon as tickets are available you really do have to get them there & then! Best think you can do is either book another venue, or wait until nearer the time & hope someone has a couple for sale, but that’s like a lotto, if some do become available from someone you have to act quickly. Good luck
Is there an actual book “All The Fun of the Fair” by Jon Conway please? Waterstones couldn’t help me when I enquired. They need the book number or something. Many thanks.
Hi Mate ,how are u all , well I hope , are u ready 4 Christmas , I am nearly ,anyway wrote your card so look out 4 it hun , Have a Great Family Christmas and what a successful New Year we will all have , love too Sue,Sonny and Levi x Cazz and Soo x

Have a wonderful rest of the year and we both look forward to seeing you next October on tour!
All the very best to you and your family in the meantime,

Hi, can u confirm if you are performing or not at Potters on 1st November next year. I have been told you are just wanted to make sure as it’s so close to your tour.
Many thanx x
Hi David. So excited to hear on your Lorraine interview about your tour next year. I’ll be seeing you at Southend with one set of friends but super looking forward to going with old schoolfriends to see you at The Palladium. We are going to re enact the day to when we will all be together 1977/78 like we did back then. It will be the 1st time all 4 will be together.
Might have to dig my original scarf and denim waistcoat i wore. SUPER exited for the new music too. Thank-you so much xxxx
Lovely to see you on Lorraine, David. Good news about the forthcoming album as I am not mobile enough to see you on tour anymore but will be with you in spirit.

I have just purchased my tickets for the London Palliadium for next year 2020 this will mark the 60th time i have seen David live ….. i have loved him since i was 13 and i am now 56 … i once gave him a teddy bear at a concert and i even had a West ham kit knitted for it and after the concert i seen him drive away with my teddy in the car … wonder if he still as it now ..?? love you david carry on doing wot you do xxxxx
Firstly, I’d like thank David for the signed photo for my mum. Her op went amazingly! One more next week so best of luck to her. Secondly, we got tickets today for 2 of the tour shows so we are super excited!!!!! See you at the first one in Southend! Come down and say hi, we won’t bite Would love to meet you David. Stay well. Xx ❤️
I booked for the Lowry this morning on your pre booking system. Along long long away from the front. The old days are gone when you could pick your own seat. The Lowry is at pier 8, Salford Quays. See you next year if my life and health allow me.
What a stressful morning, with the help of my Daughter I’ve managed to get VIP front row for Brum, didn’t think this day would come when you would give us another tour. THANK YOU xxx Rock on Oct 2020 xxx
Phew – what a stressful morning but delighted to say 10 tickets in the bag 1 to go.
I messed up the london one I agree with other comments that some of us do find online booking so stressful I thought I had a good seat and then ended up with one at the back! – But still I”ll be there that’s the main thing.
Whilst I love that you are doing this tour I really do hope this is the last time I have to do this!! I think I much prefer one off events nowadays (although I won’t be saying that this time next year – Rock on….)
Looking forward to seeing you and the band and all your great fans all round the country next October and especially the last 3 in the South West – THANK YOU X
Sally from Somerset
xx
Oh what a circus, Oh what a rip off !! I know it’s not you David but I’m very upset how much your promoters have set the ticket prices at. I purchased VIP tickets for missing you tour, that was disappointing (not the show) you couldn’t pick your ticket, it’s like booking blind. What ever happened to the days of been able to que up at the box office, or book directly at the venue so you could choose your seat. Let’s hope tomorrow’s not to disappointing .!!!!
I’m afraid most of us feel that way, it’s a complete lottery, and the fact that they all go on sale on the same day is a nightmare for those of us doing several!
Hello I am so happy you have decided to do the tour next year . I am hoping to go to Sheffield and Salford . I have been thinking a lot about the song Shoulder to cry on and I just want to ask if you’d consider doing it on this tour? I have musically cried on your shoulder so many times throughout my life and this is one of my favourite songs. I know it’s very popular along your fans and I would just love to see and hear you sing it one more time . I am so hopeful you might do . Lots of love from me Xx
Will the pre-sale of tickets tomorrow include the best seats (i.e. front row) or will these seats only be available when the tickets are released to the general public?
Hi David
Fantastic news about the tour! Saw you for the first time in Godspell – on a school trip to London and we were invited onto the stage and got your signature. Seen you lots of time since and looking forward to seeing you again at Ipswich. Pity you’re not coming to some more local haunts – perhaps you can add Norwich/Cambridge/Lowestoft/Felixstowe to your dates? Ha, ha!! Until then continue to Rock On. Love and best wishes Jenny x
Oh what a circus, Oh what a show it’s gonna be, I’ve got a tear in my eye remembering all the happy times you’ve given me and all your fans over the years. Oct 2020 can not come quick enough. Let’s hope tomorrow’s not to stressful trying to get tickets for those of us who are not very good online !!! Love Kay xx
I am beyond excited!! I was so devastated saying goodbye to him at his last tour it broke my heart! I remember him saying ” I havent died” loool.
I saw him again at the festival in Southend and just cannot believe he is going to do a solo tour for us all! It is the best news!
Please tell us when the presale link will be up please as I am not with 02 and want to see the Glasgow one.
Many thanks
Hi Dave, I was wondering whether I could make a request please for your 2020 tour. My favourite album of yours is Stage Struck is there any chase we could here some of your more obscure songs on the 2020 tour please? Xxxx
Can you please tell me how I can get 2 pre sale tickets for David Essex for October, 2020 at St. David’s Hall, Cardiff as I under I need to do this before Wednesday. Thank you.
Good evening . And here was I thinking you had retired !
Have to have a chat with hubby about a ticket or 2 ? Saw your last concert in Nottingham !
Good on ya ! Better to keep doing what you’re best at !
Well done you and the boys !
Xx Donna
OMG! I promised myself I would not get too excited (my husband just rolled his eyes!) And here we are my office has been in uproar all afternoon, already marked 9 of the 18 dates and booked the days off. THANK YOU so much that the last three are in the South West XXX – David, you do realise how happy you have just made everyone, what a great start to the week roll on next October
Now to gear up for the stress of getting the tickets – good luck everyone see you all next year
Sally from Somerset

Hi editor, have tour dates been released?, Slightly confused, because a message on the 20th Oct from Gail said she’s seen the dates ! Can we have a list asap please, thanks Kay
Hello David
I’ve been a big fan of yours 40 years seen you many times in concerts and musicals you would make my dream come true if you could possibly send me a birthday card my birthday is in December Thank you so much…Susan
Been a fan since i was 16yrs old now 63yrs young
Lost count on how many concerts ive been to
So pleased your doing tour in 2020 booking 6 oct sheffield when are the tickets on sale plz
I have read that O2 Priority tickets will be on pre-sale on Wednesday 23rd October. Will David’s pre-sale tickets be on this day too and from this website?
Hi seen tour dates great news but there seems to be some saying there is priority booking for o2 customers a week before they go on general sale is this true pls?
Thank you so much for my signed photo, it arrived today on my birthday. It made my day! ❤️ Just waiting for tickets to come on sale now. Thank you. Xxx
Dear David and Team
Am I right in thinking there will be a tour and not a one off in a single venue say like the o2?
Obvs we are a crazy lot of hormonal women and there seems to be rumours over a concert at the o2.
Thanks for reading.
Lorna x
Great to see that. That’ll be the day and Stardust will be released on blu ray DVD on Monday 21st October 2019. Have ordered mine on Amazon.Lets see if the films soundtracks follow.
I have been a fan ever since Rock On came out in the US. I literally wore out my All the Fun of the Fair LP! I have followed your career as best as I can, and keep my fingers crossed that I will be able to meet you one day. I will be in Scotland next September, so perhaps something will work out 🙂 You are gorgeous and so talented. I would love your autograph if at all possible 🙂
Hello Tammi, thank you for your kind words about David. He’d be happy to send you a signed photo.
Please leave your details on here, they won’t be published.
Hi David
Hope you are well. Our theatre company, (The Cradley Heath Amateur Operatic Society), aka, “CHAOS” , are performing the wonderful show “EVITA” next month. As you played the character ‘Che’ so brilliantly, (and the best ‘Che’ in my opinion) in the original cast, I was wondering if you would be able to grant us a huge favour, please? I am helping with publicity and it would be absolutely wonderful if you were able to send us a signed photograph wishing us “break A Leg” . I would send a stamped addressed envelope for this purpose if required. I have always been a huge fan David, and have followed your career along with my sister who has seen you many times in concert. Many thanks David. I will provide my address if this request is possible. Thank you in anticipation.
Kind regards
Gail xx
Would it be possible to send me a birthday card my birthday is 26 th October.I feel.a bit cheeky asking for myself but there’s no one else to do it .looking forward to the tour next year xx
Cant wait for the tour next year. Really looking forward to it.Could I please have a signed photo sent to me for my Birthday Thank you so.much. Denise x
Hi guys, I was just wondering yet again if you have any other way of getting David’s I’ll be missing you final tour CD dvd, I keep on trying to get and Nyquest have no intention of doing anymore, it’s down to amazon, they said no, Nyquest said they printed 2000 and no more, im more than sure David has more than 2000 fans and I know a few people have asked, pleeeeeaaassseee can you try for me it’s the only one I haven’t got??
Sorry your having difficulty. Unfortunately Nyquest are the only ones who can help you, if they are still trading. We have no available copies I’m afraid.
Hi David, Thank you so much for your birthday card I received on the 26th September I was thrilled to receive this. I cant wait to see you in concert and will be checking the venue near me. Next year is my 60th gonna be doing lots, to see you in concert will be a special moment to treasure after my 60th. XX
I am so looking forward to seeing the tour dates on here, I am keeping everything crossed that you will be coming to London, so happy you decided to tour again. Loved seeing you at Potters this year it was just the tonic I needed as I had undergone a knee replacement operation on the 11 March. Much love to you and your family. Janice xx
Hi David hope you are well and looking forward to your tour next year as much as we all are. I’m so so excited to come and see you again. I’ve been a fan since the 70s and seen you many times in concerts, shows and even in Peter Pan! I can’t wait for the tickets to come on sale.
It’s my birthday 19th October I was wondering if you would send me a card and make my day!!!!
Thank you. Xxxx c u soon
Please can you send my friend CAROL O’BOYLE a birthday card and/or signed photo it is her 60th birthday February 4th 2020. She is huge fan and this would thrill her to bits. Loved you all her life.
David Essex will you be coming to Stockport on your next tour? Sadly I don’t live in Manchester anymore. There is a theatre in Stockport called The Plaza. Remember going to see you once at the Davenport Theatre, Stockport, (1981) and having to leave early when you we’re singing ‘On My Bike’….to catch the last bus into Manchester. I will try to get to see you again….tickets will be a Christmas gift.
Hi David hope your enjoying being a man of leisure.
Please can you send me a birthday card it is my birthday 26th September 2019 I will be 59 my big 60 next year. I have been to many of your concerts and lived every minute of you and your music. I went to a book signing you were there at Fosse Park. Thank you ❤
My Sister Chris is a massive David Essex fan and has seen him live many times.
She is 60 in January and I just wondered how to go about trying to get a signed photo or message from David for her for her birthday.
I know it would make her day (well probably her life!)
With grateful anticipation!
i was wondering are you touring again.
or have you anything planned.
my wife is a massive fan of yours and has seen you on many a occasion.
i wanted to surprise her.
David, you are amazing! Thank you 4 the signed photo and 4 making it personal with the message 4 my mum Shirley. She is going to love it! I will send it over to her and she will probably want to write her own thank you. Much love to you. Ps, sorry 4 4s, my phone is busted See you soon!!! ❤️
Sept 15th , means alot to me makes me think of you ,1st time I saw you, last day of Godspell , beginning of FAIR,and a beautiful little song,have a nice day hun ,Cazz x
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! Is it possible to get a signed photo or my mum please? Her name is Shirley. She’s always wanted to meet you David but has never had the opportunity (hopefully on next years tour?) The first time she wanted to go to a show was back in 1971 but she fell pregnant with me; sorry and only managed to get to the live legends show in Wembley this year with me and my daughter which made her so happy (and me although you made me cry) . She has to have an operation on her cataracts soon (risky op but they’re doing it) so I would like her to have something she can look at afterwards and what better than a signed photo? So, as she lives in Mallorca and I wouldn’t ask for you to send one there, would you please send it to me and I will forward it on? Would be nice if she can get a little good luck message on the back please if possible? Thank you so much! Much love. See you next year!!! Can’t wait!!!
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
There seem to be lots of David Essex Facebook Pages,but none of them are to do with us directly. Please see my reply below.
The dates will be released on here and venues when the dates are finalised. No one else has or will be given these details.
Sorry to hear it’s causing upset.
Hi, would it be possible to arrange a birthday message for my mums 60th, she’s a massive fan.
Many thanks
Sam
Hi Sam, yes of course. Just leave an address and your mums name which won’t be published.
Hi,
Thank you very much!
All done for you.
Any news on Imperial Wizard coming out on CD
It is available on CD and mp3 download. Unfortunately not on this website.
Question for David about Out On The Street
I’ve loved this album since I first heard it in 1976.
Was it supposed to be s concept album? It certainly has that feel.
Side 1 Track 1 and Side 2 Track 1 are in my opinion mini-epics and the whole album showcases some of David’s best songwriting.
Not as such no, but there was a thread with the thoughts – David
Hi there, it’s my mums birthday on 1st March and she is literally your biggest fan and goes to all your concerts, and has every bit of merchandise! It would literally make her year if you would be able to send her a signed photo, if that would be possible!
Thanks!
Hello Sean,
Please leave an address and your Mums name on here, it won’t be published and we can do that for you.
It’s David on Cameo or Memmo or any video request sites? If not, does he accept requests for a personalised video message? Happy to pay a fee.
It’s not really Davids style, he’s more than happy to send a signed photo.
My Mum has loved David Essex since the 70s and she will be turning 60 in a few months. Would it please be possible to get a signed photo for her? Thank you x
Hello Kara, yes of course. Please leave an address and your Mums name on here, it won’t be published.
Hi, its my mother in laws 60th next month. We had her tickets to see
David in October but due to Covid she couldn’t go. Would we be able to get a signed photo?
All done for you.
Hi, I have just found out that my mum used to have a poster of David on her wall growing up! Please would it be possible for her to receive a signed photo? It would really brighten her year!
Hi Liam, please leave an address and your Mums name on here, it won’t be published and we can do that for you.
Hi!!!!
It’s my mum’s birthday in May….. she’ll be 74. I’ve been coming to your shows with her for almost 40 years. Hoping to get her to meet you 1 day! I’ve bumped into you a few times but mum’s never been with me! Typical! Coming to VIP in Brighton in September although the rescheduled date is now my daughters 11th birthday and they can’t change it, so not sure what we’re going to do!
Anyway, if you could send a video birthday message to her, she’d die with excitement!!!! Her name is Pat and she absolutely loves you…..I have a guilty crush too tbh!!
Let me know what charity you support and I’ll make a donation to say thankyou!!!!!
Take care and stay well.
Thankyou
Nikki.
Hi Nikki, thank you for you message. David would be more than happy to send a signed photo to your Mum. If you’d like that, please leave details of your Mums name and where to send it on here. It won’t be published.

Hi David. Do you do any personalised video messages by any chance? Like the ones you can buy on cameo? I would love to buy one for my mother in law for mother’s Day. She is a huge fan and has had a really tough few years losing her son and husband. Thanks
Hello Rachel, David would be more than happy to send a signed photo. If that’s ok, please leave details of where to send it and your mother in laws name. It won’t be published on her.

Hi Gareth, yes of course. Just leave details of where you want it sent and your managers name. (It won’t be published on here)
The masked singer!!!! What an insult to David
David
My good friend is both celebrating her birthday and retiring at the beginning of March. The last few years have been tough both personally and professionally. To remind her of fun times seeing you in concert l would love for her to receive a signed photo.
With thanks and best wishes.

Thanks in advance
Katherine
Hello Katherine, David would be more than happy to send your mum a signed photo. Please leave your Mums name and where to sen it on here, it won’t be published.
Dear David Essex,
The Masked Singer show is waiting for you
Just finished reading ‘A Charmed Life’ by David.
I have to admit that I knew precious little about David’s career and private life before I opened the book, but after having read avidly (finishing the book in 2 days!), I just want to say that David is an interesting and inspirational man, and I would heartily recommend the book to any fan of David’s, or anyone interested in how hard work and belief can help you pull through.
Thank you David.
Thank you for your kind words Dave – David Essex
Hello, I sent a message through here for my mums birthday but it got deleted? Any gesture from David on her 70th birthday would be great. Sent an email through also. Thank you 🙂
I’ve e-mailed you Leon.
Hiya
Is it possible to send my mum a 70th birthday wish please. She’s a huge lifelong fan & now unable to get out to anymore shows due to poor health & would love to cheer her up somehow xxx thank you
Hello Diana, yes of course. Please leave an address and your Mums name on her, it won’t be published.
Hi David
I just wanted to thank you so much for the signed photograph for the occasion of my 60th birthday on the 6th Match, it has just arrived. It has made my day and my birthday! Take good care. Really looking forward to seeing you in Sheffield. Julie from Hull. Xx
Hi thanks for getting back to me!
On its way
Hi there, hope everyone is staying well. It was my mum Elaine’s birthday in December and I emailed a fan mail address but wasn’t able to get a response, I was hoping it would still be possible to get a signed photograph or mail from David. It’s been a tough past year (as I know it has been for many) but I know something like that would mean the world to her! Let me know, thanks alot
On its way.
Hello Robbie, yes of course. Sorry you had no reply?! Please leave details of where to send it. It won’t be published.
Thinking of you today which is my birthday. Looking forward to seeing you on stage soon.
Hello, I’ve been a fan of David since the 70’s. Would it be possible to have a signed photo of David as it’s my 65th birthday in March and would make my day. Thank you.
On its way
Hi David
I am pleased to hear you have been given your Covid vaccine. I will feel relieved when I have been vaccinated. I will be 60 on the 6th March and was wondering if I could be cheeky haha and request a signed photograph from you to mark the occasion please. I have been a devoted fan since 1973. Thank you so much. Stay safe and well and all your family too. So looking forward to seeing you in September in Sheffield. Fingers very crossed that your tour will not have to be postponed again, but no worries at all if it does, it will be such a meaningful tour whenever it happens. Love Julie xx
Thank you again.
Signed photo on its way.

Thanks so much,
Ollie
On it’s way
Hi Diana, I’ve e-mailed you!
I just had a pleasant surprise, I have been listening to a series of podcasts by the great Steven Wilson and Tim Bowness called The Album years. it was originally aired at the tale end of last year and i’m just catching up. They discuss a year in music, mainly with a progressive rock slant. No music is played, it is just a discussion about albums released in the particular year. Episode 12 is 1974 and one of the albums they discuss as one of the best is the David Essex album, in particular the production of Jeff Wayne. From the basis that the podcasts generally talk about prog rock, it was great to hear that Mr Essex was held in such high regards. worth a listen.
keep safe.
Hi David & Team,
Hope alls well
It’s my wife Jens birthday at the end of February. She is a huge fan and would love a signed photo if poss!
Also do you do personalised video messages as well? Obviously am more than happy to pay a fee.
No problem if not poss.
Cheers!
Sam
All done
Hi David & Team,

My sister Elaine Devine is retiring at the end of Feb. She lives in Bournemouth and never misses a concert of David’s. Could I ask either for a signed photo or a few words from David via email. I have written a request but had no reply to date.
I have made a retirement memory box – a few lines or photo from David would be the icing on the cake. Many thanks
Hello Sue, David would be more than happy to send a signed photo. If you can let us know an address to send it to; it won’t be published.
Evening David
I was asked recently …can you remember some of the most funniest moments in your life …..one of them which has this evening set me off laughing so much …it’s made my evening ..was standing in a queue for your book signing in blue waters ..my sister is a huge fan .and of course she drags me along ….(I became an accidental one .if you can call it being a fan it’s more an appreciation of an artist who happened to be gor blimey he’s handsome too. .however I’m pleased I did ….) any way in this que in front of us was a man dressed identical to you hair clothes mannerisms he must of practiced that for ages because he even created similar vibration to yours …. I had to look few times I was so taken back at the similarity and being a people watcher I glued my eyes on him ..so he gets to you you look up and the expression on your face was brilliant ..to die for you tried so hard to act oblivious and calm professional ..I just could not stop laughing ..it was an honour, previldge whatever one calls these copycats …And of cause hand of applaud that there partners love you so much …he’s gone out of his way to make her happy so well done anyway to him , what a gem …but David it was so funny your eyes spoke a 1000 unspoken words and your expression a marvel ….what a great guy you are ..this moment will forever bring laughter to me ….I’m grateful I witnessed it
Just think your gorgeous been in my life since the 70s i eas a model but life goes on love you as my idol always but im.just a fan always im my heart ❤
Dear David Essex
I felt compelled to write to you today, after last night watching “Back in Time for the Corner Shop – 1970” with Sara Cox, on BBC 2.
They played the introduction of “ Hold Me Close” even now this song makes me and all of us smile.
Sara Cox teased the mum and daughter in how your twinkly eyes, made all us teenage ladies swoon, and even now in our golden years!
Looking back I wished I’d kept all the tickets of the concerts, pantomines, and the theatre productions I’ve seen you in, they would have made wonderful wall pictures.
But one memory I cherish to this day….I went to a lot of of the concerts with my daughter, but we never managed to get front row seats!
However, when you and your band were in Southampton, we managed to rush to the front of the stage, where you took the Rose from me and held it to your heart, you then stayed in front of myself and daughter…..you really do have the most sparkly eyes!
Well David, Thank you….for all the wonderful memories you’ve given us all.
Keep safe and well David, and everyone
Best wishes from Gilly .x.
ps. I haven’t written to you for ages!!
Hello
Please can I request a signed photo for my mums 60th birthday
Her name is Val. X
On its way!
Hello
I have sent a couple of messages one on the 21st and another on the 22nd, I initially asked for a birthday video message from David for my mums 60th, and then saw your replies to others saying he is happy to send a signed photo instead, so I sent my second message on the 22nd asking for just this. I haven’t had a response but can see other messages have been replied to since, so just sending this in case my messages didn’t come through? It would be great if something could be sent to my mum for her birthday on the 4th February, her name and address are as follows:
Thank you so much
Sophie x
Hi Sophie, I’m so sorry, I’m not quite sure how and why I haven’t replied to you! Rude!! I’m blaming it on home schooling, sorry.

Hello David
I’m wondering if you remember my parents. They ran an Off license in Barking called West Minster Wines around 1964? You was a Customer with your Girlfriend Maureen. I’m tracing by Family Tree and wondered if you remembered them. You once knocked for a packet of Cigarettes after Closing Time on our Flat Door and my dad gave you some.
Take care.
Hello Julie Marie, I’m sorry but David doesn’t remember that, but good luck with the family tree. Happy New Year!
A very Happy Christmas David and family. I really hope 2021 is a better year and that your concerts go ahead in September. Can’t wait to see you in Sheffield! Stay safe and well. Love Julie (Hull). Xx
Hope You Sue and all the family have a wonderful Christmas , stay safe. xx love to L,P,I
Hello David & Famliy Merry Christmas and Happy New year love Susan & Lance

Hello David, so sorry we’ve not received your e-mail. Please leave details of who and where you want it sent on here.
Hi,
Our 88 year old Nan is a massive fan of David, we had tickets for the tour this year which has been moved due to Covid. Nan recently tested positive for Covid herself but has managed to chew it up and spit it back out. She is now well on the road to recovery. We would love to get a personalised signed photo for her for Christmas and I wonder if you could help us.
Many thanks
Angie
Hello Angie, so pleased to hear your Nan recovered from Covid. If you can leave her name and an address David will be more than happy to send a signed photo.

Hi,
I hope that you are all keeping well in these trying times. Sending love and best wishes. Im hoping that I can be cheeky, its my mums birthday on the 5th of January and she’s going to be 60! She has been a huge fan of Mr. Essex forever. She even jokes that the only reason that she married my dad was because he looked like Mr.Essex when they were younger. Anyway, I was hoping that I could get a card or Autograph, from Mr. Essex to give to mum for her birthday, It would really make her year. I hope you can help or direct me to a site where I can buy one from please. Thank you so much in advance.
Nikki xx
Hi Nikki, if you leave your details on here David will be happy to send a signed photo for her birthday.
Hi! [relatively young] fan here. Christmas wouldn’t be the same without A Winter’s Tale. Found your music through my mum and have loved it since I was little.
Also saw a few people asking about the location for the video and the rocks are definitely Combestone Tor and the rest is definitely Dartmoor (the house might be Bleak House but I’m not sure there’s a lot of ruins there)
Hello! It’s my Mum’s 60th birthday in January, she is a long time David Essex fan. She still has her scrap book from her teens of pictures and stories of David and I can’t count how many times I’ve heard “Alexa, play David Essex” coming from the kitchen!
I was wondering if there is a fan mail address I could possibly send a birthday card for David to sign or a signed pic? This would bring a massive boost to what will probably be a very low key 60th due to the pandemic.
Thanks very much for your time!
Alyson
Hello Alyson, if you leave an address and let us know your Mum’s name, David will sign a photo for your Mum’s birthday.
Hi could you please wish my wife a very happy birthday for December 5th she has been a fan of yours since she was 11 and she celebrated her 60th birthday last year . Looking forward to the tour next year Have a great Christmas and a very happy new year xxx
Happy Birthday, best wishes – David
Hi David,
Thank you so much for the signed photo. I’m looking forward to seeing you at The Lowry next September.
Wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas xx
Hi.
It’s my Mum’s 60th birthday coming up and I’ve been looking to see if David does any paid video messages or similar for her special day – she’s a big fan!
Can anybody help please?
Hi Danny, please leave details of your Mum’s name and an address and we’ll send her a signed photo
Do you remember the poll tax / Community Charge from the 1980s I refuse to pay it and was sent to prison for 4 weeks and this little skinny man next to me claim to fame was he broke into David Essex house. So I said who do you mean the actor from the feature film Stardust, he replied yes.
I hate house burglars I just thought perhaps you would be pleased to know that he was a skinny little man with sticky fingers who did his time and his claim to fame was he burgled your house. I would not like somebody to burgle my house! but considering it was so many years ago it may amuse you. I do not think it would amuse me come to think of it. I bumped into your website so I posted this.
Thanks for letting us know!
Hi all, hope you’re all well. I see further down the page you’ve answered someone regarding Potters. As of a Week ago they’re still telling myself ( probably others too) that theyre awaiting confirmation on a new date from yourselves regarding a new Date for next Year! And thus, still holding onto our deposit! I’m not stupid enough to know Potters don’t know what’s going on, but it’s pretty unfair to pass the buck to you, saying it’s you that are holding back on confirming, when they obviously know & are not refunding our deposits!
Thank you for letting us know, as far as we’re concerned we have not yet been approached by Potters for a 2021 date.
Hello David got the Calendar merchandise thank you David from Susan
HAPPY David Anniversary No 1
Love 46th year look what u started x

Hi people, my partner of 18 years has always been a fan of David’s. its her 55th birthday at the end of the month. ive been looking on the “celebrity vm” sites for a personal message for her but i cant find David anywhere. Is he on any of them or is there any way of getting a little video message from him? any help would be appreciated. Many thanks.
Hello Andrew, David would be more than happy to send a signed photo for her birthday if you leave details of her name and an address to send it to on here, which won’t be published.
Dear David
Thank you so much for the lovely surprise card for my 60th birthday. Made my day very special, particularly during these difficult times. I had so been looking forward to your Palladium concert to celebrate, so it was a wonderful gift & I’ll never stop smiling about it. (Thanks too to my dear friend Cathy Reevell & Editor)
Thank you too for all the years of fantastic songs, music, films, theatre, & concerts. Loved it all.
Wishing you, your family, friends, & fans safe keeping. Take care, & look forward to seeing you in 2021, when hopefully we will all be able to share even more special times together.
Love to all

Carol
Hi Carol, unfortunately we can’t advise on this. Please e-mail support@musicglue.zendesk.com

Please get in touch with support@musicglue.zendesk.com if you’ve not already had your order.
Ok so we have the tour rescheduled for next year! But whats happening with Potters? Are we actually going to get a new date for this event next year? We dont seem to be getting any information, Potters is up and running to its best! So why are we not getting a new date to look forward too?
Davids only scheduled for his tour next year. Hope all’s well and stay safe.
Dear David,
Had a Lovely, Rainy Sunday afternoon watching the Secret Live Tour -David Essex, with my Grandaughter (21 months), her face was a picture, at the beginning, then she fell asleep!! But, I enjoyed the rest of the show!
Love Sally (Essex) X
Hi ya David.
I’m watching a re run of Top of the Pops January 1983 and have just watched you singing A Winter’s Tale. Please can you tell me where the video was filmed? It looks like possibly Dartmoor? Can you please clarify for me?
I so love that song.
Lots of love Madeleine. Xxx
Hello Madeline, it was filmed somewhere in the West Country, sorry to be so vague.
Hi all, does anyone know if David does personalised messages on websites like cameo for a fee ? Mums 60th birthday at the end of the month, meant to be going to see David in concert but obviously not happening in the current situation. Any advice would be appreciated 🙂

Hi! My mother, Louise, turns 60 on October 9th, and I am currently unable to go see her due to a local covid lockdown. She’s extremely upset about this and I really want to cheer her up! She is one of David Essex’s biggest fans! I’ve been brought up on his music, and even got to see him in concert last year! I can see why my mother is obsessed! She always tells me the story of how David kissed her hand during a concert when she was younger, and she refused to wash her hand for months after!
I was wondering if it was possible for David to send my mother a video message wishing her a happy 60th birthday?!
Thanks so much!!!
Hello Courtney, thank you for your lovely message. If you leave an address, David would be more than happy to send a signed photo to your Mum.
Hi I remember reading in your bio that you got married on this day 10 years ago so Happy Anniversary to both of you… hope you are very well…

Hello David on this Day 15th in 48 years last day of Godspell
Hello! My mum (Mary) is a HUGE David Essex fan. When she was young, about 13/14.. David was performing at the Hammersmith Apollo, she waited outside to try and meet him but too many people. As David’s car was driving away my mum thought it would be a good idea to chase his car. As the car came out of the Apollo, it ran over my mums foot and she ended up in hospital. Only a very minor injury but she still says it was the best concert and best experience of her life. A signed picture would mean the world.
Thank you so Much
All the best!
Carina
Blimey! That’s awful. Please leave details of where to send it on here.
Hi, My partner had her big 60th birthday on 25th August this year and spent it in KOS, I forgot to send this email asking for a message from David, so would appreciate if one could be sent to her. she is looking forward to seeing him again next year in Newcastle, one of her treats for her birthday was the show, so this would make her day.
Cheers,
John
Hope you had wonderful 60th birthday
Best wishes – David
Hello, I wonder if you could give me some information regarding my order for the Silver Dream Racer Collectors Edition Set?
I pre ordered the set and was told it would ship on the 31st of August, but as of yet, I have not received any delivery or update email, and the Hermes tracking website still has no information regarding the order?

Good evening David.
Would like to say, as the postponed tour dates get closer I’m more in need of a night of your music.
So , instead I had one in my lounge.
I love so many of your album songs .
Enjoyed your contribution to The Real Thing doc. Not Mrs Lakes so much. Haha.
IMO you don’t need anyone to make you sound better.
Is there any likelihood Alan documentary on you will ever see the day of light.
Still hope you are keeping well.
All the best.
A music fan
X
No news on the documentary, sorry.
Dear David …thank you for Maria’s birthday wish …she was amazed …also oops slight error in last message I meant to write your oldies as in your earlier songs and not you oldies ha ha sorry
Hello David
Your newest and maybe oldest fan was 91 on the 16th August (same day as Madonna and as fiery lol ) we’ll not so much now …Any way since I introduced her to you oldies and taught her to sing along whilst I was housekeeping she likes you loads ha ha ha
Unfortunately after looking after her for 5 months during lockdown without her usual 4 carers to help I developed carpal syndrome and some nerve damage to my arm due to weight baring she’s not light weight typical little old Italian lady beautiful and eloquent anyhow I had to take her back to Peterborough where she gets all the necessary help and a hoist ..she was very upset and sad but so was I and still feel bad it’s like iv abandoned her . However I keep going back and forth from Wickford to Peterborough to be with her …so to cheer us both up can you still wish her a happy 91st anyway she will be surprised maybe bit confused that it’s directly from you …in her era or younger days these things just didn’t happen you adored your artist from afar ……very unlikely that one would receive a birthday greeting …just didn’t happen …(we are so lucky today all is much more accessible and our adored artists have a personal touch and reach out to us there fans).
Apologies for long message
Her name is Maria luigia Pozza sounds rather nice that ha ha ha
Anna
Dear Maria,
I would like to wish you a very happy belated birthday.
Every good wish – David Essex
I love you. Me Essex I love David Essex. ..❤️❤️❤️

Hi there you told me that Bembridge was one of the locations to go to on the Isle of Wight when l go… with regard to the locations used in the film That’ll Be The Day… I am not sure what l am looking for in Bembridge? Are you able to advise please? that would not be the church hall used in the film for the wedding scenes would it? Cant think what else itmay be that Bembridge would have been the location for? Any help would be wonderful and you do not need to publish this. Thank you so much … will send a card to you for David to sign. Thank you. Cathy Reevell.
I’m sorry Cathy, David can’t really remember as it was such along time ago.
Hi Cathy, if you look down the messages to where you first posted, I’ve given you some locations in a reply. But if you type in TBTD filming locations in Google, the locations will come up, hope that helps.

Hello Pamela, really sorry to hear this. Please get in touch with Music Glue – support@musicglue.zendesk.com
Great to see you on “The Real Thing Story” on Friday night , looking well. x
Hello Editor,
Thank you so much for answering both of my questions. I will indeed visit Shanklin and Bembridge when l visit the Isle of Wight in October… Lockdown permitting!
Secondly thank you that David will sign a card for my friends 60th birthday. Do l need to send one to you with postage?
Cathy Reevell
You can send a card or we’ll send a signed photo wishing her a happy 60th.
Hi David belated birthday wishes I’m sure you had a nice peaceful one …hopefully by the sea with the sunshine … and your family
After reading all the messages here with regards to potters ect …just a thought how practical would it be to do a zoom concert ..That would be amazing .i was so looking forward to cliff pavilion which happened to be on my birthday , so was going to be a special one for me ….it would have been best birthday ever … Seriously David could it be done some how?
We could pay for tickets and then your events team could send us the link for zoom …I suppose you would have to limit the numbers but like your on tour concerts …they could schedule one day For each city or county . They may have of course already looked into this …can it be done or is this one of my far fetched pipe dreams lol ….one has to try ….after all without dreams the soul loses it’s magical light ……Be safe be happy be kind Anna
Thanks for your message Anna. A very interesting idea but I’m afraid at the moment it won’t be possible. Looking forward to the concerts next year. Best wishes – David
Hi there,
Second request, l dont know if this is possible but wondering if you can advise me please? Is it possible that David would sign a card for my friends 60th birthday in September please? Does he also send signed photos? I would be happy to supply a card, pay any costs and postage involved of course. Does he have any birthday cards for sale? Could not see any in Merchandise selection?! Thank you.
Cathy Reevell.
Hi Cathy, if you leave details (which won’t be published) on here of who and where you want it sent, David would be happy to do that for you.
Hi there,
Regards to David and his family and hope you are all safe. I am thinking of travelling to the Isle of Wight for a holiday and know That’ll Be The Day was filmed there. It was one of my favourite films of the 70s. I wondered if anyone knows of locations used in the film? A lot of them may well be gone now but does anyone know of anyone who would know? Could you ask them to contact me please? If no one can help me here l will write a letter to the leading newspaper on the Island as l know that local folk there were extras in the film. I have googled it and can see Shanklin, Ryde are places to visit and Wooten .Can anyone help? l would be very pleased to have something positive to do in this difficult time. Am planning the trip in October … as far as you can plan these things at the mo! Stay safe folks! Cathy Reevell.
It was filmed around Shanklin and Bembridge
Hi Cathy, it was Warner’s Puckpool / St Cleres Holiday camp in Ryde, sadly derelict now. Also Ponting’s Little Canada Holiday camp. When Jim/David goes to see the bands playing when he’s supposed to be at night school, that was the Shanklin Theatre, Prospect Road Shanklin. The school scenes were filmed at Sandown High School. Also scenes on Shanklin pier. And last but not least Meaders Road in Ryde where Jim’s Mum’s shop was, the building is still there, but not a, shop! Hope that helps. Xxx
Hi David
Many thanks for sending back the birthday card to my mother in law
Also the signed photo, brought a smile to her face and perfect timing as
she was feeling down today still missing her husband who passed away recently
Thanks again you are a star

It is so sad that you come close to Norfolk and go to Ispwich in Suffolk. Please could you home to Theatre Royal Norwich one day. Used to come to every concert there and mostly both nights sat in one of front 2 row seats.
We can always hope, Norwich and Norfolk still love you.

Hello David
Firstly, let me start by saying… Hope you and family are staying well and safe.
Secondly, I’ve just pre ordered the Silver Dream Racer Collectors Boxset, and its about time the film got a special release, its a brilliant movie, and just so happens to be my favourite of all time.
And lastly, would you happen to remember where the two exterior locations were in London that were used for your flat and the Sapphire club in the movie?
Many thanks
And stay safe and well
Paul
Hello Paul, thank you for you message and kind words. One location was at Shepherds Bush and the other was in the city I believe. The Sapphire Club, I’m sorry I have no recolection!
Best wishes – David
Happy Birthday David on 23rd hope you have great day From Susan & Lance
Hi, I am confused about Potters is it happening or not?
Hello Sue, sorry if there’s confusion, Potters is not going ahead.
Dear Team
Thank-you for passing on my querie about my order.
They e-mailed a couple of days later and I have received my mug.
Now for a cuppa!!
Lorna x
Hi,
I ordered a CD and retro mug. I received my CD and had an email to say that mug was posted on 22nd June but it has not arrived. Please advise. Thank you.
Cheryl x
Hello Cheryl, Sorry to hear that, if you e-mail support@musicglue.zendesk.com they will be able to help you.
Sorry for being such a grump, I’ve had the worse 18 months of my life & really needed something to look forward to. But yep Potters seemed blissfully unaware that David had cancelled when I spoke to someone there. It’s now changed on their website. Although they are replying to emails saying they don’t know what’s happening!!! Guessing they obviously need our deposit more than we do!
Hi David, Great news, Tour has been rescheduled until next year! Sad news about Jack Charlton – “He will remain in football folklore forever.” Cannot wait to receive latest cd!
And, COYI! Love Sally X (Essex)
Hi, just wanted to say a massive thank you for taking the time to read my message, plus thanks to the lovely person who commented on it, I can almost here him saying “you could of done that when I was alive” true legend you are.
Ah Pat. That is a lovely story. RIP to your dear brother x
Hi everyone hope to find you all heathly, now I know you don’t like nostalgic but I want to share this with you me and my sister have followed you since 1973,we were young but our late brother adored your talent so we went everywhere to see you, so one day we put your cd on and looked all through all of your memorable that my brother had, he left it all to me, and there was a lot, we shed tears for losing our brother as was his anniversary 5yrs ago,all that and ours we have followed you since then, sorry I guess I’m saying all this for my dear brother, got to ask how come you still haven’t released missing tour only thing I haven’t got, thank you for our memories.
Thanks for your kind words Pat. I hope you’re brother is “Rockin‘ On”
Best wishes – David
Sorry, we’re only in July, 3 almost 4 Months from November!
Is Potters cancelled? Only it’s still advertised on Potters website? If cancelled why haven’t we be informed? And is it going to be rescheduled? And why? It’s November, we’re only in August & Potters are re- opening!!
Potters has been cancelled, no idea why they’re still advertising, sorry. We’ll be in touch with them about this.
Thanks for the reply, I asked b/c I had an email from them Yesterday saying when the balance was due, but where is it stated here on the website, or a tweet from David stating this? It’s the same fiasco as the Sunshine Festival, the organisers saying it’s going ahead & you saying it isn’t! But if everything is being cancelled b/c of this virus, best cancel next year’s tour cos viruses don’t disappear, that’s not how they work! It will be around for Months, if not Years!
Thank you for reply ‘re Potters guess I knew the answer deep down bit if wishful thinking take care ⭐
Admin, i am really disappointed that you have not printed my issue! It seems that its only the nicey nicey ones that get shown, i was only trying to make you and the fans aware of th problem, i do have other sources to let them know, So instead of passing the buck and taking it personally, i now have received an email from the music company, i would of prefered a direct approach from you, after all its Davids fans that pay your wages!
Hello admin, im just curious as to why my previous query was not printed? As im sure it was not offensive to anyone i just felt it was fare that David and his fans are aware of the prices and more so the P&P charges this Music Glue are charging and the postal costs are not the prices shown on the package! If people are lucky enough to go to the tour, then purchase the items there its cheaper! I do understand that not everyone can go to the tour so therefore the postage should be more reasonable! I do know that alot of fans are really not happy about it but maybe to shy to comment! Clearly this was not thought about properly!
Hello Lorraine, I’m sorry you feel this way. Your message was directed to the company who are selling the online merchandise as they are the best people to help with any problems and answer your queries. As with any new venture it has teething problems and your complaints have been noted.
Hello David you say you are looking forward to seeing us next year as we are you does this mean that Potters is definitely cancelled/postponed.
Yes it is Julie
Hi , I requested a birthday message for my very good friend June , she was 80 plus on June 1st , she has been to see you play several times and has recently recoved from Covid , I sent the card , stamped and addressed for you to sign , Unfortunately she didn’t receive it !

Donna
It was sent back Donna, sorry you haven’t received it. We can send a signed photo if you could let me know where to send it.
Kind regards

Hello David I got the Cd & tea mug today thank you so much came for my birthday 60th birthday . waiting for the anther goodings now from Susan in oz
Just wondering (and hoping) as we are not seeing you on tour until 2021 any chance of a David Essex calendar for 2021 .Thank you in anticipation x
Thank you so much gonzo multimedia ?- I’m “looking for something” called silver dream racer box set edition -got very much excited – when will the pre-order be up on the David Essex web store please? – noticed it via gonzo music TV YouTube channel
It shouldn’t be too long
Can`t wait
Hi David
My mother in law opened her cards today as it’s her 88th birthday
She is a big fan and saw you at Blazers in Windsor many years ago
Her face lit up when she saw the photo you sent her, she really needed something to cheer her up
Many thanks and take care
Enjoying the new CD
Thought I would share this with you if it’s ok.
I shared this song on a David Essex fan Facebook page and had a great response
David if you read this, enjoy.
The main guy behind the band is also an admirer of your music so perhaps it’s not such a surprise that the Essex fans enjoy a bit of prog
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hJq1nOroGBw
Many thanks David for the happy birthday photo to my mother in law
She will be thrilled
You truly are a star
Hi, David,
Just to thank you for my signed card for my birthday today. Just listening to your cd, one of my pressies & awaiting delivery of the portrait blanket!!
Thank you for giving me so many happy memories since 1973.
Love,Sharon. Xx
Thank you so much for putting the new album available on download i for one really appreciate it! I am so chuffed to hear A shoulder to cry on on the cd, the album brings back so many fabulous memories of tours gone by
When can I download Unplayed Titles on Spotify please
Hi I have bought the new album as a download from Music Monkey and whilst it is a great album the format is not at all user friendly . Luckily for me my son is a computer expert and set it up for me and explained the cost implications to the artiste to use ITunes or Spotify .
Hi David and all the team and the many David fans I’ve met back in the day, well done on the new website shop and new album – one song that i would have liked on there would have been – Ernesto – from the whisper album as it was not on 7t’s CD release of the album not even as a bonus track and I’ve only heard it via a special web page looking back on classic albums and tracks – hopefully this track will see the CD laser light one day – loving the new merchandise also – the blankets especially – big love to all xxxxx
Just seen your Tweet from today with Let it flow . Made me realise my cd that can’t yesterday isn t signed . That would have been lovely . Maybe I will get chance to ask you to sign it next year , hopefully the social distancing will be no more Oh I hope so xx
Oh my ,such happy memories on this new album . Let it flow was always one of my favourites . Such a happy song . Alice stay young and free will always take me back to those fabulous days of all the fun of the fair . We saw it everywhere . Love this album . Love YOU xx
Loving the new Cd ..Came so fast…and from just up the road!! lol x thank you !
Hi David
Received unplayed today, well it’s now well and truly played. It’s also made me replay some cds that for some reason I hadn’t got out for sometime.
I know you’re not keen on nostalgia but listening to your back catalogue has evoked so many memories, good and not so.
Looking forward to the rescheduled tour have my tickets for Southend and Palladium.
I hope you are keeping well
Lorna
P.S it would be fab to have all your work on Spotify etc so I can listen in my car x
Please, please make your CD available for download. Haven’t got a player anymore
Very excited to see the new items in the shop, wanted to buy 4 things but the postage is astronomical!!
Very disappointed that stay with me baby isn’t on the new album.
The greatest vocal performance by anyone ever and not available on cd. ..it’s a crime.
Thank you so much for the new CD but could it please be available on download.

Thank you David for the fab new merchandise available. So looking forward to receiving my goodies. Great variety to choose from.
For those asking for a download, buy the CD & rip it to your Computer!!!! I’m sure most of you know someone with a disc drive if you don’t have one yourself!

Hallo
After 40 years stil listig tot you song WORLD it is verry real in this time.
Are you planning a tour tot the netherlands…..ik hopen so.
Marjanne
Such a relief this years tour has been postponed and not cancelled – much appreciated this has been done sooner rather than later (before theatres get booked up for next year). It’s impossible to social distance in packed theatres.
We’ve well and truly had our wings clipped…will never take freedom for granted again!
Thanks again for the trouble of re-arranging everything.
Next years tour will be all the more special!
Take care
Jan x
Hi David hope your keeping safe, well and your family…. I went to Peterborough just before lock down to pick up my Xmother in law as both my xhusband and his sister work and live in Dubai . No other family around . So she was one of the vulnerable ones … who would have been at risk .Although she had 4 carers in place I just didn’t want to leave her isolated on her own ….so brought her back her to Wickford in Essex …she is 90 years old disabled and deaf to add to the scenario . I’m lucky I live in 500 year old cottage on 6 aches and a huge pond in front of the house …it looks like a mini lake it’s that big . So lock down for my self my dogs and mum as I still call her (it’s italian thing we use ) have been lucky to have the space to enjoy our tranquil surroundings. During this time I’ve been keeping her entertained etc and I decided to tell her about my visits to your concerts etc .she was not sure who you were or your songs and so I played your songs showed her your picture ..so now she has learnt to sing hold me close …(her English not that good ha ha ) and she says data Davido eehsaa Verie bellismo man ah olda dissa man haha ha so I told her and she replies ahhh mabbee dissa man ah gonna marrie me ha ha ha ha I did laugh so funny she thinks of course your very handsome every morning when I get her dressed and ready for the day she always ask you play dissa song oldamee clossa. And we sing it together Ha ha ha so now during lock down you have yo just acquired a 90 year old fan …apologies for long message I just wanted to create the image for you ha ha her name is Maria she is a beautiful humble person and every day says to me how grateful she is that I brought her here .and so could you Please say hello to her if you have time and I can then show her it she would be very happy I’m sure and it would make my day to see her face light up
Thank you
Anna
Hello Anna, sorry for the delay, what a nice story, please say hello to Maria and send my regards, thank you David
Gutted the tour has been cancelled for this year…we were so looking forward to all the ones we have booked with the new dates we have even been able to add a few more …but so so pleased its just postponed….its a long way off but better to keep us all safe and its just gonna be amazing when we are all back together back on the road, gonna be wild….Would be great if you could include “Here we are Altogether” in the set list……Been playing through all your albums from start to finish amazing all of them…and bring back so many memories from lots of tours past…………Rock On David and stay safe you and your lovely family – You shine like a diamond xx hugs for Levi and Pickle xx
Dear Mr Essex, I am locked down on my yacht in Grenada in the Caribbean. Your music is saving my sanity. We had a huge squall. blow through a couple of days ago. My boat did a very merry dance rocking and rolling all over the place. I could not resist to put up the volume and play Rock On.
Thank you and I hope and yours are well and safe.
Cheers Jeanne s/v Olive
Just wanted to say Thankyou for rescheduling the tour. Disappointed as I am I know it’s the right decision . I was worried we might lose it altogether so very relieved even though it’s over a year away we will get to see you again. I know you ll be keeping safe with your family . Much love to you and see you next year Xxx
Hi
Pity about the tour it would be so good if the new CD was released soon to cheer up the fans and you all take care
Gutted the Tour has been cancelled, another whole Year to wait. I had such a crap Year last Year I needed something to look forward to, looks like this Year is as bad as 2019.
Please stay safe & well, all of You. And fingers crossed nothing goes wrong for next year.
Best Wishes
Trace xxx
Hi David,
Thanks very much for the decision to postpone the 2020 tour.
Totally understandable and expected.
Let’s hope the world will be a safer place by September 2021.
It’ s so hard not being able to have contact with my 3 grandchildren and one of my daughters is a frontline nurse in the NHS so lots to worry about.
Well done to all key workers coping in this pandemic.
So pleased the tickets will be valid for next years tour!
Stay well and safe David and everyone..
Jan
Hi David
completely understand and hopefully will be able to see you next year, expect the potters break has been cancelled as well. stay safe and hopefully see you soon.
regards Barbara
Happy Birthday to Billy and Kit today xx
Thank you!
Does anyone know where I can buy the Imperial Wizard album on cd? I’ve been looking for it for years.
Hello John, it will be available soon.
Excellent new that Imperial Wizard is coming soon
Hi can you please inform the fans as soon as possible re cancellation or re scheduling dates due to Covid 19.
We need to know to either cancel travel and hotel reservations.
Other performances from other artists have already cancelled.
Regards Nigel
Details are now on the website
Hi David Just wanted to say hello. Hope your doing okay and staying safe yourself x just a memory I have as I was a fan when younger. At the age of 17 I worked in London in the 70’s and you were signing your latest single at the time in the HMV Store in Oxford Street. So I rang my sister Sue and she and her friend met me there on my lunch break to see you with all the other screaming teenagers!! Never got time to get my single signed though but saw my pop idol and was happy with that. Good memories x Take care
Just a little hello really in these uncertain times. Lots of memories are up on Facebook. Guess every one is clearing lofts cupboards etc.
Got with it just recently and am using Spotify.
Sad not to be able to get 75 tour album to download.
Loved your Little Richard bits in your ad libbing.
Many memories flooding back.
It’s not just nostalgia it’s the music of our journey.
You have been a massive part in mine.
Thank You for that it has got me through many a day in my isolation journey.
I hope that all the family are well, guessing at your age lol not able to see you.
Take care. With hope, see you in October x
I love you Mr Essex you were cha king and sexy ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤I still hold you close
Hi David, Just heard you have a new cd for us! Happy VE Day – It’s a Glorious one!

Hi editor,
Thanks for the confirmation.
Kay
Idevastated about sunshine date being cancelled . I am on my 10th week of lock down so do understand the reasons but I’m still devastated. Oh I so hope the tour doesnt get cancelled what have i to live for but my family x
Hi, I’ve just checked and found out that the Sunshine festival has been postponed until Aug 2021. Do you know if David is still booked to play on the Sat? I know it’s a long way off and none of us know what will happen with this terrible virus. Thanks, hope everyone is well.
Hello Kay, sadly David won’t be performing with the Sunshine Festival being cancelled. They are advertising that he will be performing next year, he has not agreed to that. Hope you and yours are safe and well.
Hi, all,
In this current awful situation, are we to assume that David’s tour will be cancelled/postponed? I’d got tickets for Birmingham, have been on the venue’s website but no mention as yet.
Hello Sharon, the promoters are awaiting advice from the government as we don’t want to put the audience or David, the band and crew at any risk. We will let you know as soon as we do. Stay safe.
I love David Essex I love his 80s looks I mett him love Sarah Turnersend him my love ❤
Thank you very much for your quick response sending my sister her card she is one happy lady today ..it reduced her to tears sending special thank you to all involved stay safe

Hi David, I am an English entertainer living in Belarus + have been asked to perform at Grodno International Culture + Music Festival, July 2020.

Hello David
This is a total long shot! One of my best friends is 60 years young on the 9th August this year. I have been trying to wrack my brains on what would be a really special present for her and you came to mind. She has been an ardent fan of yours for as long as I can remember, and I’ve known her 30 years! She has travelled the length and breadth of the country following you on tour year after year. She has even dragged me to a few concerts in Northampton, Milton Keynes, Liverpool, Manchester where I have had to stand at the stage door whilst she waits for you to come out and sign all her paraphernalia and I take photos! ( don’t worry it wasn’t such a duress)!
She even won an afternoon tea with you in London,I believe! Her house is full of pictures of you and of you & her together at stage doors!
Whether you remember her as she has an unusual Scottish name, COLINA – which I’m sure you’ve had to write many times!
She is the most special, kind, good friend anyone could wish for and I’d like to do something very special and memorable for her on her special day!
Anyway, as I said a long shot but I was wondering if there is anything special you could do for her birthday? A video message, some song lines including her name? I know this would mean the world to her
Many thanks and stay safe
Liz
Hi Liz, David would be more than happy to send a signed photo. Please leave an address for us to send it to if you’d like that.
Hi David..
My name is Michelle…I have been a fan of yours since my early teens…to be honest, you were probably the first love of my life…lol…!
When I heard you were coming out to Australia in 1975, I begged my mum to buy me a ticket, but no amount of ‘chores’ or promises would sway her…her words, “he is way, way too sexy and you are way too impressionable!” I begged and borrowed and got a ticket to your concert on 14th April, 1976 at the Hordern Pavillon in Sydney, Australia…I was over the moon at the thought of seeing you in concert…unfortunately, I became very ill and was unable to go, I was devastated…then, life happened and I never got to see my idol ( yeah you, Mr Essex…☺️)….
Move on to 2019, and I found out you are doing a tour of the UK…I was so excited!! I thought…”I don’t care what it costs, I have to see him in concert”….so I finally managed to get a ticket to your concert in Cardiff in October 2020, flights booked from Australia etc and bugger me, bloody Covid19 rears it’s ugly head……like a cruel twist of fate, and depending what happens in the world, again, I may not get to see your concert
It is the number one priority on my bucket list and has been my all my life…
Hopefully the world will be back to normal come October…I’m not cancelling my flights etc till I absolutely have to…I cannot miss seeing you again…
I hope you and your loved ones remain healthy and safe in this very uncertain time and with luck the world will go back to normal and I will be at your concert in Cardiff…
Take care, stay safe…
Your devoted Aussie fan
Michelle…xx
PS If all is well and I get to Cardiff, could I please get a photo with you…it would be my ultimate wish come true…
Thank you for your message Michelle, who knows what will happen but most importantly now, stay safe.
Best wishes – David
Thank You David…stay safe x
keep safe and well
Hi David
I hope you and your family are keeping well in this awful pandemic.
I have just watched your last concert performance from Wolverhampton back in 2016, I have really missed seeing you in concert over the last 4 years. I have tickets to see you in Sheffield in October, which was a fantastic surprise that you are touring again, You really cheered me up this morning in these troubled times and I was up dancing in the living room. I hope we all stay safe and well and the virus leaves us in the next couple of months and your tour goes ahead later this year. I hope you and all your family stay safe and well.
Love Julie xx
Take care David, stay safe and well and your right together we will get through this x
No matter who we are what we have achieved were we come from right now we are all in the same boat wishing each other to be safe in these strange times ….
So david stay safe and your loved ones
Anna
Hi David
I have always been a massive fan . I have tickets booked to see you in October. I work for the NHS. Crazy times . God pray we all make it and I’m looking forward to seeing you then . Keeps me going lol

Hello,
I just want to say what an amazing career David has had and continues to have, in the entertainment industry.
He has achieved so many wonderful successes and I just wanted to ask if there has been anything produced about his life thus far?
I recently found out that ‘This is your Life’ did a show with David. I have never seen it as I live in Australia, so was hoping it was out on DVD, or you could send me a link to it as I would love to see it.
Thank you.
Sue.
Thank you Sue
I’ve seen David once (he was brilliant in St David’s Hall , Cardiff) and my wife has seen him twice (she idolises him). I’m on his site to order tickets for his show in St David’s Hall on 19th, October this year. We are both so looking forward to seeing him again. His music covers all genders and generations and he just seems to be getting better with age. Long may he continue to do so. So looking forward to seeing him.
Best wishes
Dennnis
Thank you for your kind words – David
Hi editor,
What day is David performing at the sunshine festival,
I can’t see it on the site and I don’t want to book the wrong day.
Thanks Kay
David will be performing on the Saturday at the Sunshine Festival

Cazz Nd Soo x
I remember when you lived at end of my road Longhayes Avenue Marks Gate when you played as Drummer in The China Plates at The Bell pub in Ilford on a Sunday night and worked at Plesseys and I at last have tickets to see you again in October and am so pleased to be seeing you again
Hello Sirs,
Can you tell me where the video for the single Winter’s tale was filmed as I watched it just this moment ago and it looked quite bleak and barren and was intrigued.
Mark
It was somewhere in the West Country. David can’t remember quite where exactly!
Thank You so much David , made my day today, ( cant wait to hear the final set list) love to all xx
Hi DE management, please can you give me some information on the song MOD 1960s i do believe. Is this Davids song? And is it him singing it?
Thank you
Yes, it is David’s song and it is him singing it.
Hi David and all the admin team. I was sooooo thrilled 2 years ago when I requested and received on my 65th birthday card from David. Can I be the cheekiest person in the whole world and request a Valentines hello card/message. I am a bit down at the moment as waiting for hip replacement surgery. At the moment I can’t do my live of Walking and Dancing. A cheer up card from David would be the best. ( I have followed DAVID for year, and my friends already joke and say that I should be on David personal Christmas Card list by now !!!!) I know this is a silly request but would make my day. Thank you so much , I guess if I hear from you asking for my address again I may have been lucky . I can’t wait til October when I see David at the Palladium Kind regards Jan
He can send you a signed photo Jan. Please let us know your address
Hi please could you send a birthday card to my mum Ruth?
Her birthday is on 20th February 2020
I’m not sure what the process is? She’s a huge fan!
Many thanks
All done!
Hi David,
Was great to tune in radio, today, as I got in car for some good music, to hear your interview about up and coming tour! Was on way to Brentwood for Birthday lunch, my day was made – was like going on holiday!!! Great choice of songs as always! Get home and my Grandaughter is dancing to Rock on!! Good start to weekend for me! Love Sally (Essex) X
Hello. It’s a bit weird writing this. I desperately want to get a message to David Essex, I doubt he has anything to do with this but maybe just by putting it out there, it might be received. I just want to say thanks to him. For giving my something to hold on to. So my mum died 11 years ago and was a massive lifelong fan (much to the bemusement of her teenage family… sorry, but sure it won’t come as a surprise!) Anyway, when she died we had a non religious service and we had no choice but to play ‘Hold Me Close’ of course. However, Unfamiliar with many other songs and through many tears I trailed the albums and found ‘It’s Going To Be Ok’ and it was like my mum was speaking to me. As a non religious family we don’t believe in going on, we cremate and spread the ashes at the local wind farm so that we can be free in the wind. You see the link. “I hear you calling out to me, I hear the wind whisper in the trees…” I’m rambling… anyway… 11 years on, a quick search on YouTube and she’s back with me again… reassuring me everything is going to be ok. So I just wanted to say thanks to David, don’t know what he is doing on this cold, wet Friday afternoon but I just wanted him to know that for 4 minutes his voice has given me comfort and pleasure. My mum would have been chuffed!
Thank you Jill, sorry to hear about your mother. I’m glad you found comfort in the song.
Best wishes – David
Thank you Jill, sorry to hear about your mother. Glad you found comfort in the song.
Best wishes – David

Hi , do you know if anyone has 2 tickets for Southend 2/10/2020
My friend has cancer & is desperate to go , her daughter will be with her .
Any suggestions is greatly appreciated
I’ve tried calling the venue but they don’t have any
Thanks for reading
Fingers crossed x
All I can do is publish your message and someone may be able to help. Unfortunately Southend sold out very quickly.
Can I ask Why David is coming to Glasgow and not Edinburgh.? Its not fair. We love him too and some of us are disabled dont drive and cant get to Glasgow.
Hello Pam, it will have been down to the venues that were available for the promotors at the time of booking the tour and all sorts of other logistics. Nothing personal at all as David has always had a wonderful welcome in Edinburgh. I’m sorry to hear that you are unable to make the concert.
Kind regards
D E Management
Hi David, Hope you all had a lovely christmas, wishing you all a healthy, happy land prosperous New Year.
Love Carol xx
To David & Family,
Happy New Year!
Love Sally x (Essex)
Dear David
I hope you and your fans all had a lovely Christmas!
Dear Fans – I purchased 2 tickets to see David Essex at Sheffield City Hall on the 16th October 2020 for my mothers Christmas present.
I managed to get her seats in the front stalls Row A seats 51 & 52, unfortunately she is unable to make it, and having purchased them through Ticketmaster all I can do is resell them. The face value is £42.50 each (I also paid facility charge, service charge, handling fee, and for a pretty gift box) I am happy to sell them at face value or an offer near that and pay for postage to you. Please let me know if you would be interested – I would hate to see them go to waste.
Many thanks
Rachael
Happy new year to you all, I’m hoping 2020 will be better than the past years
So looking forward to October, much love from me and my Cazzie xx
Hello,
I have been a fan of David’s music since I was a teenager but as I live in Australia it has been very difficult to have that love of his music fulfilled. Back then as you were controlled by what was played on the radio and put on tv it was really difficult. I’m very sad to say I have never been able to attend any of his concerts and it breaks my heart. The last concert performance actually falls on my 59th birthday so I just want to wish David all the very best and to let him know I think he was truly ahead of his time with his music. ‘All the fun of the fair’ and ‘Out on the Street’ being a couple of my favourite albums. I have recently been able to discover some of his other albums on Spotify and find so many of his songs so relatable even now. I have been able to source his ‘Royal Albert Concert’ DVD but was wondering if you know if any of his other concerts during the 1970’s are on DVD? This is the only way I can get to feel like I am at his concerts. Thank you so much for your help.
Thank you for your message Sue. There aren’t any DVD’s of any concerts from the 70’s sadly.
David Essex representatives/agents
Please check out media on FB relating David’s name to Barbaric videos, ie dog fighting with porcupine – barbaric!
There are several posts linking David’s (David will always be our number one fan) name to advertisements I’m sure he would like having his name linked to.
Thank you.
Mrs Christine Bedford
Thank you for letting us know. Of course there is no way David would ever be connected with anything like that.
Hi in answer to your reply to me I have not received the card for my wife Amanda as of yet
I put her full address on the prepaid envelope I’m not sure what could have happened to it
It was for her 60th birthday so a very special occasion I’m still hopeful that it will turn up in the post
Many thanks kind regards
Trevor
Please leave your an address and we will get another one sent to you ASAP.
Happy Christmas David,and a Good new year,to you and your family.Mary Mullett
Merry Christmas David and All the best for 2020 x
Merry Christmas David, Sue, Sonny Levi and Pickle and all the family, hope you have a wonderful Christmas and amazing 2020….love always, and (thanks so much you never fail) xx…..
Happy Christmas David with lots of love always from Jenny (from Dorset ) xxx
Hi David, Just seen the sad news about Martin Peters – He was my favourite, back in the day, when I swapped football cards with my Brother. Bobby Moore, Geoff Hurst & Martin Peters. Love Sallyx (Essex) COYI!
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year David
DEAR David
We have a patient in the Hospice who is a true fan of yours. In fact her sister and daughters are massive fans of you.
We would love to provide them with a moment of joy during this time. On hearing about them speaking about going to your concerts, the last time being at The Albert Hall we thought if we could get a message from you to them that would be utterly brilliant during this difficult time.
Obviously if you want to come to the Hospice, you will be most welcome at any time. However a simple video message, card would also be a lovely moment for them. Please let me know if you can help.
Hello Nicola, David would be more than happy to send a signed photo if you can give us her name and an address. It won’t be published on here.
Hi I posted a sixty birthday card with a prepaid envelope to
David Essex management address for my wife who has been
A fan for over 45 years I was just wondering whether you
Received it as we have not had it sent back to us as of yet
I did write a covering letter also with it
Thank you
Trevor freund
Hello Trevor, yes it was sent. Please let us know if you still haven’t received it.
To David & Family,
Have a Great Christmas! 2019 feels like ATFOTF in real life!
Christmas in Plaistow, at my Nanna & Grandads were the Best,
Warm memories of Christmasses Long, Long ago!!! “ I hope that Love & Strength”…
Here’s to 2020!!!
Love Sally x (Ireland)!
To David Merry Christmas & Happy New Year From Susan & Lance x
Thanks for that. Any idea when I would get a reply as tickets selling fast. Great to know he is still so popular.
I’m sure David would make time for you at the stage door, but he can’t promise anything definite right now, sorry.
Message for David.
We spent quite a bit of time together when I was yours and Ringo’s stand in on That’ll Be The Day when you were on the Island and would be great to meet again. If I come to the Mayflower next year any chance of that.
Hello David, Thank you for your message, I will pass it on to David.
Kind regards
D E Management
Dear David Essex admin
Thank you for replying …
Could I please ask in advance for a signed card from David Essex for my birthday on 2/10/20 would much appreciate it
Many thanks
Anna
Hello Anna, thanks for your messages. You can send a card nearer the time to
D E Management, PO Box 1018, HORSHAM, RH12 9TQ
Good luck with finding another ticket.
Hi,
Please could you tell me where the video for A Winter’s Tale was filmed.
Thank you and Merry Christmas xx
It was in the West Country Ruth, he has no idea where!
Hello all at admin Essex … I hope you can help I am unable to source tickets for cliff pavilion southend on sea …. I just called and was told there’s no more tickets …wow it’s not until October 2 2020 (my birthday ) what’s happening it’s a year away cannot believe this is crazy …..seriously no tickets …… I so wanted to treat myself I wanted 2 tickets myself and sister but even just one be nice ha ha
Where can I buy these tickets I was told other agencies may have some ….would you have this information if so could you forward on details. I’d really appreciate it.
Perhaps miracles of miracles and since it’s my birthday David might give me a back stage pass and allow me to sit at the side to watch ha ha ha And perhaps not …… worth asking though ,,,,, and I promise I’m quiet , not demanding or pushy
All joking aside if you or anyone here knows where I can get tickets please let me know
And David if you’ve got couple of tickets in your pack pocket …how much mate .
.wishing you well gentle man
Anna
Hello Anna, so sorry Southend sold out very quickly. Hopefully you can make it to another venue although it won’t be on your actual birthday.
Kind regards
D E Management
Hi Anna, sorry to hear you couldn’t get tickets for Southend. You have to be really quick to get tickets for that venue, they always sell out within the first week of going on sale, it’s always a popular concert. As soon as tickets are available you really do have to get them there & then! Best think you can do is either book another venue, or wait until nearer the time & hope someone has a couple for sale, but that’s like a lotto, if some do become available from someone you have to act quickly. Good luck
Is there an actual book “All The Fun of the Fair” by Jon Conway please? Waterstones couldn’t help me when I enquired. They need the book number or something. Many thanks.
Hello Denise, no there isn’t a book, sorry, just the DVD of All The Fun Of The Fair.
Hi Mate ,how are u all , well I hope , are u ready 4 Christmas , I am nearly ,anyway wrote your card so look out 4 it hun , Have a Great Family Christmas and what a successful New Year we will all have , love too Sue,Sonny and Levi x Cazz and Soo x

Hi guys I was wondering if you are filming this tour so us mere mortals??missed the last one I really don’t want to miss out on this one
There is no plan to film the 2020 tour
Hi David. So excited to hear on your Lorraine interview about your tour next year. I’ll be seeing you at Southend with one set of friends but super looking forward to going with old schoolfriends to see you at The Palladium. We are going to re enact the day to when we will all be together 1977/78 like we did back then. It will be the 1st time all 4 will be together.
Might have to dig my original scarf and denim waistcoat i wore. SUPER exited for the new music too. Thank-you so much xxxx
Lovely to see you on Lorraine, David. Good news about the forthcoming album as I am not mobile enough to see you on tour anymore but will be with you in spirit.
David,Great to see you on Lorraine.Good news about an album. Can’t wait for the tour.Booked five shows.Hope to hear more of a Faded Glory short film.
Hi, was the dog in the video for ‘Winters Tale’ David’s?
No it wasn’t Tony.
Great news. Looking forward to your concert. Hopefully a new album as well? Enjoy Christmas & New Year with your family & friends.
Catherine & Barbara
David very happy you touring again

So Happy 8 concerts booked 2 pending lol …..Thank You x
I have just purchased my tickets for the London Palliadium for next year 2020 this will mark the 60th time i have seen David live ….. i have loved him since i was 13 and i am now 56 … i once gave him a teddy bear at a concert and i even had a West ham kit knitted for it and after the concert i seen him drive away with my teddy in the car … wonder if he still as it now ..?? love you david carry on doing wot you do xxxxx
Firstly, I’d like thank David for the signed photo for my mum. Her op went amazingly! One more next week so best of luck to her. Secondly, we got tickets today for 2 of the tour shows so we are super excited!!!!! See you at the first one in Southend! Come down and say hi, we won’t bite Would love to meet you David. Stay well. Xx ❤️
I booked for the Lowry this morning on your pre booking system. Along long long away from the front. The old days are gone when you could pick your own seat. The Lowry is at pier 8, Salford Quays. See you next year if my life and health allow me.
What a stressful morning, with the help of my Daughter I’ve managed to get VIP front row for Brum, didn’t think this day would come when you would give us another tour. THANK YOU xxx Rock on Oct 2020 xxx
Phew – what a stressful morning but delighted to say 10 tickets in the bag 1 to go.
I messed up the london one I agree with other comments that some of us do find online booking so stressful I thought I had a good seat and then ended up with one at the back! – But still I”ll be there that’s the main thing.
Whilst I love that you are doing this tour I really do hope this is the last time I have to do this!! I think I much prefer one off events nowadays (although I won’t be saying that this time next year – Rock on….)
Looking forward to seeing you and the band and all your great fans all round the country next October and especially the last 3 in the South West – THANK YOU X
Sally from Somerset
xx
I am soooooo excited just booked front row seats for BIC 🙂
Oh what a circus, Oh what a rip off !! I know it’s not you David but I’m very upset how much your promoters have set the ticket prices at. I purchased VIP tickets for missing you tour, that was disappointing (not the show) you couldn’t pick your ticket, it’s like booking blind. What ever happened to the days of been able to que up at the box office, or book directly at the venue so you could choose your seat. Let’s hope tomorrow’s not to disappointing .!!!!
Sorry you feel that way.
I’m afraid most of us feel that way, it’s a complete lottery, and the fact that they all go on sale on the same day is a nightmare for those of us doing several!
Hello I am so happy you have decided to do the tour next year . I am hoping to go to Sheffield and Salford . I have been thinking a lot about the song Shoulder to cry on and I just want to ask if you’d consider doing it on this tour? I have musically cried on your shoulder so many times throughout my life and this is one of my favourite songs. I know it’s very popular along your fans and I would just love to see and hear you sing it one more time . I am so hopeful you might do . Lots of love from me Xx
Will the pre-sale of tickets tomorrow include the best seats (i.e. front row) or will these seats only be available when the tickets are released to the general public?
Sorry I can’t answer that question as it’s down to the venues.
Hi David
Fantastic news about the tour! Saw you for the first time in Godspell – on a school trip to London and we were invited onto the stage and got your signature. Seen you lots of time since and looking forward to seeing you again at Ipswich. Pity you’re not coming to some more local haunts – perhaps you can add Norwich/Cambridge/Lowestoft/Felixstowe to your dates? Ha, ha!! Until then continue to Rock On. Love and best wishes Jenny x
HI just to say why does David never come back to Northampton .we miss him?
It’s down to availability at the venues and the promoter.
Oh what a circus, Oh what a show it’s gonna be, I’ve got a tear in my eye remembering all the happy times you’ve given me and all your fans over the years. Oct 2020 can not come quick enough. Let’s hope tomorrow’s not to stressful trying to get tickets for those of us who are not very good online !!! Love Kay xx
Hi there seems to be confusion over ticket sale dates..poster says 1st November but also hearing friday 25th October..can you clarify pls thanks!
Hello Gail, sorry for the confusion, general sale is on Friday 25th October
I am beyond excited!! I was so devastated saying goodbye to him at his last tour it broke my heart! I remember him saying ” I havent died” loool.
I saw him again at the festival in Southend and just cannot believe he is going to do a solo tour for us all! It is the best news!
Please tell us when the presale link will be up please as I am not with 02 and want to see the Glasgow one.
Many thanks

Dear David and Team
Am I right in thinking there will be a tour and not a one off in a single venue say like the o2?
Obvs we are a crazy lot of hormonal women and there seems to be rumours over a concert at the o2.
Thanks for reading.
Lorna x
Yes there will be a tour next year. Dates released very soon

Great to see that. That’ll be the day and Stardust will be released on blu ray DVD on Monday 21st October 2019. Have ordered mine on Amazon.Lets see if the films soundtracks follow.
Hi David,
I have been a fan ever since Rock On came out in the US. I literally wore out my All the Fun of the Fair LP! I have followed your career as best as I can, and keep my fingers crossed that I will be able to meet you one day. I will be in Scotland next September, so perhaps something will work out 🙂 You are gorgeous and so talented. I would love your autograph if at all possible 🙂
Tammi
Hello Tammi, thank you for your kind words about David. He’d be happy to send you a signed photo.
Please leave your details on here, they won’t be published.
Is it true that 02 users will be able to purchase concert tickets first??
Hello Sophi, There will be an O2 pre sale for the O2 venues.
David will also have his own pre sale.
Hi David
Thanks for taking the time to answer my question – I am sooo looking forward to seeing you as many times as I can

Hi David
Hope you are well. Our theatre company, (The Cradley Heath Amateur Operatic Society), aka, “CHAOS” , are performing the wonderful show “EVITA” next month. As you played the character ‘Che’ so brilliantly, (and the best ‘Che’ in my opinion) in the original cast, I was wondering if you would be able to grant us a huge favour, please? I am helping with publicity and it would be absolutely wonderful if you were able to send us a signed photograph wishing us “break A Leg” . I would send a stamped addressed envelope for this purpose if required. I have always been a huge fan David, and have followed your career along with my sister who has seen you many times in concert. Many thanks David. I will provide my address if this request is possible. Thank you in anticipation.
Kind regards
Gail xx
Hi Gail, David would be more than happy to. Please leave details of an address and we can do that for you.
Thanks David all over the moon xx
Been a fan since the 70’s, seen David many times, but the best time was Hippodrome circus, Gt Yarmouth, Oh What a Circus, Oh What a Show !!!

Hi guys, I was just wondering yet again if you have any other way of getting David’s I’ll be missing you final tour CD dvd, I keep on trying to get and Nyquest have no intention of doing anymore, it’s down to amazon, they said no, Nyquest said they printed 2000 and no more, im more than sure David has more than 2000 fans and I know a few people have asked, pleeeeeaaassseee can you try for me it’s the only one I haven’t got??
Sorry your having difficulty. Unfortunately Nyquest are the only ones who can help you, if they are still trading. We have no available copies I’m afraid.
Hi David, Thank you so much for your birthday card I received on the 26th September I was thrilled to receive this. I cant wait to see you in concert and will be checking the venue near me. Next year is my 60th gonna be doing lots, to see you in concert will be a special moment to treasure after my 60th. XX
Dear David
I am so looking forward to seeing the tour dates on here, I am keeping everything crossed that you will be coming to London, so happy you decided to tour again. Loved seeing you at Potters this year it was just the tonic I needed as I had undergone a knee replacement operation on the 11 March. Much love to you and your family. Janice xx
Hi David hope you are well and looking forward to your tour next year as much as we all are. I’m so so excited to come and see you again. I’ve been a fan since the 70s and seen you many times in concerts, shows and even in Peter Pan! I can’t wait for the tickets to come on sale.

David Essex will you be coming to Stockport on your next tour? Sadly I don’t live in Manchester anymore. There is a theatre in Stockport called The Plaza. Remember going to see you once at the Davenport Theatre, Stockport, (1981) and having to leave early when you we’re singing ‘On My Bike’….to catch the last bus into Manchester. I will try to get to see you again….tickets will be a Christmas gift.
Hi now we know when the dates are in October do we know when tickets will go on sale,will this before Christmas ?
Hello Jennifer, the dates should be released in November.
Hi David hope your enjoying being a man of leisure.
Please can you send me a birthday card it is my birthday 26th September 2019 I will be 59 my big 60 next year. I have been to many of your concerts and lived every minute of you and your music. I went to a book signing you were there at Fosse Park. Thank you ❤
It’s on its way!
Hello
My Sister Chris is a massive David Essex fan and has seen him live many times.
She is 60 in January and I just wondered how to go about trying to get a signed photo or message from David for her for her birthday.
I know it would make her day (well probably her life!)
With grateful anticipation!
Heather
Hello Heather, yes of course. Just let us know your address and we can send you a signed photo. Your address won’t be published on here.

Hello Kevin, David will be doing an extensive UK tour throughout October 2020. Dates will be released in November.
David, you are amazing! Thank you 4 the signed photo and 4 making it personal with the message 4 my mum Shirley. She is going to love it! I will send it over to her and she will probably want to write her own thank you. Much love to you. Ps, sorry 4 4s, my phone is busted See you soon!!! ❤️
Can you please let me know as soon as the dates are released when David is solo touring next year please – I so want to see him, thanking you x
Yes of course
Sept 15th , means alot to me makes me think of you ,1st time I saw you, last day of Godspell , beginning of FAIR,and a beautiful little song,have a nice day hun ,Cazz x
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! Is it possible to get a signed photo or my mum please? Her name is Shirley. She’s always wanted to meet you David but has never had the opportunity (hopefully on next years tour?) The first time she wanted to go to a show was back in 1971 but she fell pregnant with me; sorry and only managed to get to the live legends show in Wembley this year with me and my daughter which made her so happy (and me although you made me cry) . She has to have an operation on her cataracts soon (risky op but they’re doing it) so I would like her to have something she can look at afterwards and what better than a signed photo? So, as she lives in Mallorca and I wouldn’t ask for you to send one there, would you please send it to me and I will forward it on? Would be nice if she can get a little good luck message on the back please if possible? Thank you so much! Much love. See you next year!!! Can’t wait!!!
All done!
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
There seem to be lots of David Essex Facebook Pages,but none of them are to do with us directly. Please see my reply below.
The dates will be released on here and venues when the dates are finalised. No one else has or will be given these details.
Sorry to hear it’s causing upset.
