![]() She interviews, reviews albums and gigs and takes photographs for Fireworks Magazine/Rocktopia. She runs the UK branch of the Autograph European fan Club. More recent favourites include Biters and Buckcherry. Her favourite song of all time is 'Remember my name' by Stevie Lange. Dawn's favourite bands include Autograph, Whitesnake, Cinderella, Kix, Smashed Gladys, Vixen, Quireboyz and Forty Deuce, but really there are too many to mention. She once won a signed Bon Jovi album by being the first person to turn up to a radio show in a bikini and wellies. Her first gig was Kiss supported by Bon Jovi on their Runaway tour. Meeting boys on the beach when she was ten with a ghetto blaster gave her a love of Whitesnake and AC/DC, but when hair metal came along her obsession with metal and hard rock was in full swing and never stopped. Her father reignited that love when he gave her 7 inch vinyls of 'You Really Got Me' by The Kinks and a number of early Stones singles. Interview show with classic rock artists, featured tracks from that artist and other classic rock tracks with an emphasis on glam.ĭawn has been in love with rock n roll since she saw Sweet, Slade, T Rex and the Glitter band on Top of The Pops in the early seventies. ![]() The result was a refreshing change for both band, who attacked their roster with the fire of their youth, and for the audience who had the charm of surprise and delight at the sheer quality of the band’s performance. There were two or three favourites, but even those were not the most obvious tracks like ‘The Number Of The Beast’. They gave us what it said on the tin with five Senjutsu tracks (the Japanese theme of which extended visually into tracks not from that album), five from ‘Somewhere in Time’ and some unusual choices from other favourite albums. Clearly, they felt that following a greatest hits tour, the time was here to let the material from the new album shine and change up the set list. However, this was with a twist, as they would also be looking at tracks they had not played frequently from older albums and taking a look, in particular, at 1986’s ‘Somewhere in Time’.
