Ex KXDG frontman DarceysDad is to release a self-funded solo album under the moniker Daniel Parker. The album, entitled Three Or More Is A Congress, is a mix of cover versions and original compositions which DsD told CR were inspired by "some back-stabbing ingrates who shall remain nameless: I hope their tourbus drives off a levee!"Classy Rawk intended to bring you a full interview with the artist, but at a strangely low-key launch party, our man's dictaphone was broken when a member of the venue staff spilt McThickShake onto it. This occurred when the spotty herbert concerned voiced the opinion that Nick Cave had beaten DsD to the name idea with his Bad Seeds, and the Manics had done that sleeve first too.
After agreeing to leave the venue, DsD gave this statement:
"I must apologise for the enthusiasm of my fans. I could see that the young man was about to blurt out his excitement at recognising me, and in such a public place I feared for the safety of the kids if a crush ensued when my presence became known. Unfortunately as I reached out to cover his mouth, the fan lurched forward, putting his face into my closed hand at quite high speed. Now where do you want me to sign? Bottom of each page?? Got a lot of family, huh? OK. To - what's your name again? 'To PC Knuckledragger, best wishes and rock on. DarceysDad' "
As Classy Rawk went to print, no copy of the album was available due to what DsD called "a slight cashflow misunderstanding at my pressing plant."
Rock 'n' [yawn] roll, huh!
