 !daft! are GODS... worship them! Rising Sun, Slough on Sat 8th Mar 08 | |
  !daft! are AWESOME - I don't say that merely 'cos I think of Graeme as a mate...if I walked into a pub where they were performing and I saw !daft!, I'd think the same...they are absolutely utterly completely and totally FAB
Musically the band are excellent - far better than the picture mere words can paint. Real quality musicians.
Graeme himself is amazing... the boy can sing... not just sing a bit, I mean he can sing... really SING. He's got an impressive vocal range and more than that he is everything a frontman should be - he has charisma, energy, style, wit, humour and an instinctive understanding of his audience... he takes the band a stage further from being just a group of quality musicians to a group of quality musicians who comprise a band with the "wow factor"
Their repetoire has grown more diverse over the years - everything from Brian Adams to Oasis stopping off at The Fratelli's, The Automatic, Green Day, Mika, The Manic Street Preachers, The Strokes, Guns'n'Roses, Led Zeppelin, Lynryrd Skynryd, The Kaiser Chiefs, The Undertones, Blur, Queen, Michael Jackson and The Monkees on the way (and if I'm really lucky they even do Metallica )
I went to the Rising Sun gig on Saturday and had a really good time. I'm a miserable, overweight, 40 something dyed-in-the-wool metalheaded, sad git with a bad back, but !daft! managed to get me on my feet, jumping up and down and singing (I know, it's a terrifying thought) along with loads of other people both young and old, of all creeds and colours...we were all having that rare thing - A genuinely good time.
!daft! really know how to give their audience that "feel good" factor... I was watching people leaving after the gig and without exception everyone had bloody big smiles on their faces.
So, "covers band" they may be... but they're so much more too... | |

| .....this band is something else! O'Neill's, Woking on Fri 22nd Feb 08 | |
 I'm sixty, and don't know many of the songs they perform, but......
.....this band is something else!
I played a bit in the 60's and 70's, fancied myself and the bands I played in then...still do, I 'spose, but !daft! are an outstanding covers band. I've booked them twice and both times now they have simply 'blown the audience away"!
Believe their "biography" above because every word is true, but don't just read these reviews, go to a gig, and if you can't get to one, be selfish and book them to play for you, as I have done. You'll not be disappointed. | |

| Awesome! White Horse, Maidenhead on Fri 18th Jan 08 | |
| These guys are awesome. Since I've been going to there gigs last year they've let me sing with them!! Not many cover bands have the confidence to do that! Graeme is an amazing singer with a huge range (you need it to do that queen medley). Gary and Phil are spot on with the guitars but only when Gary is playing his SG!! Nick is really strong on bass and as for Darren, I saw them the other week and Darren played even though he had a slipped disc in his back. Now thats dedication. Altogether this band play some brilliant and not obvious cover songs which makes them different to everyone else!! Keep up the great work. | |
