Guys and Gals ,

I heard - way back when - about 1987/88 - that Von was involved - some time in 86/87 with Miss Danielle Dax (dodgy "G***" singer artist )

I also remember "Mexico" being mentioned - can anyone on this marvelous forum cast any light on this "rumour"!


Thanks in Advance

They toured together for part of Tour Thing in '91 is all I know about...

Thats Great - Thanks very much - I now remember reading about that gig at the time. I guess that Von and Dax may have even be "Friends" - or so it would seem

Ms. Dax opened the first TSOM show I ever attended - Boston, March '91. I can't remember a single song she sang, what she looked like, or anything else about her performance. Oh, well...

Sinny - thats a real shame to hear - I have been collecting "Dax" since 87 - its a shame she has not recorded since 95 - shes now a award winning "Garden Desinger" on British TV! - which is nice !

How very bizarre! Which program(s) is she on? Not that I'll be able to watch til I get back to blighty in another 8 months.

are you sure you aren't thinking of kim wilde?

I dug a little further from the link that "Dom" posted and found the following :-

"Danielle Dax: The Timber Tongue EP from 1995 was the last title to be released under Danielle's own name. Despite rumors of recorded material waiting to be released, Dax has reportedly been working as a garden designer. Despite the lack of material released under her own name, Dax has appeared on a track from Arkkon's self-titled first album"

I also found this - "Last seen (Jan'97) on a BBC-2 home - improvement programme (Amateur Decorator of the Year 1997!) showing how she decorated her home with baco-foil and with a new Record Label: Danielle is back."

I guess the BBc has yet to catch up with Ms. Dax's "home improvement presenter" potential

I saw Danielle Dax a couple of times when she played with Salvation & a couple more times too . I thought she was excellent . With her strange voice and wierd instruments she was something different .
I still have a really good video of a gig she did in London (I think) .
I have heard from a few people that she (as well as Kim Wilde ) is indeed a garden designer .

See I told you so ! - as I live on the First Floor - (but not "Above The Chemist") - All I got is a potential "window box"

MMmmmmm, Mizz Dax. Ya....read about that successful interior designing stint a few years back along with the unfortunate fact that she allegedly retired from music entirely after releasing the very uncompromising Timber Tongue EP(sounds more like the work she'd done with the Lemon Kittens back in the early 80's). Although recently I've heard a few rumours that she's been renting out studio time and working again. [shrugs].
