He's still touring in the UK, so a visit is clearly a good idea! He's done some fine recordings, as well - you just need to be a bit careful what you choose. Although he's one of those performers whose sheer charm can't really be captured on a recording.

You can always look out for him as "Partners in Crime" with Sid Kipper (the younger of the Kipper Family, and keeping up their touring work despite his father's retirement from public performing).

Also - for interest - young Kate Rusby, who was mentioned in another recent thread here - cites Dave as a significant influence and source of encouragement, so look out for her, too.
