The DAF frontman has passed away.

I saw DAF at The Forum a couple of years ago. They put on a brilliant show with G D-L hugely charismatic and energetic, more than thirty five years after their first run of albums. A very sad loss.

DAF music manages to be slinky and aggro at the same time.

[Benjm]

That's an excellent way of putting it, dm.

He was a brilliant performer, made pouring a bottle of water over his own head look like the coolest thing ever.

[delicatemoth]

Hah, that's exactly what brilliant performers do, make whatever they happen to be doing (or not doing) look great.

Fuck...that's sad...I remember wingco telling me about me about an interview with him for Melody Maker (I think). He certainly sounded like a character...
