 Dave
Davies to Harp magazine about a The Kinks reunion:
Part of me thinks it would be really cool
"To the never-ending barrage of questions about a
Kinks reunion, he replies, almost matter-of-factly, “Part of
me thinks it would be really cool if it was done for the right
reasons. But I feel I want to keep moving in the direction
I’m going. If it means the Kinks can do something as well,
that’s fine.” |

Dave Davies on Dave
Davies Message Board:
There are no immediate plans for me and Ray
to play together as the Kinks just yet.
We have discussed this at length. There are several
business and personal issues to take into consideration
before this would be at all possible. I have not played on
any of Rays new stuff. Neither has he performed on my latest
CD 'Fractured Mindz' or any of my solo work. I am busy
promoting and working on my own projects at the moment and
If there are any plans to do Kinks shows in the future be
assured that Me and Ray would be the first to know before
any speculative or misinformed well wisher or self-promoting
drunk for that matter.
Sometimes some of the references and crap posted on this
board lately fill me with 'dismay'. Fortunately I don't have
the time to read it all. I am sure the majority of
contributors are sincere and well meaning. But if you have
nothing intelligent or caring or interesting to say except
rant about meaningless garble, gossip or hear say then stay
away. If the Kinks and our legacy means anything to you then
show some respect for the artists and people who created it.
If intellectual choas and emotional disorder and dysfunction
fills your minds then you are all well suited for the funny
farm but I won't be joining you. I have far more important
things to do with my Life as indeed you should ALL have. A
few of you out there and you know who you are really should
now grow up. Have fun but also please have some common sense
and common decency.
Let Peace, Love and health be with you all.
Love
Dave Davies

Earlier this year Ray told us that he had been discussing working with Dave
again, if they both felt it was right: "I think what we'll do, we'll sit down and see if there's any music we feel is relevant, relevant to do, and if so we'll go into the studio and record it and maybe play
dates. I never say never." |
