Hi,
What do you think, - is DK musically overlooked because of his older brother ?
I was listening to DK

I agreed with you overall. I quite enjoy listening to his music. He's talented as well. He's a good piano player too. The one thing that lacks in him is probably the charisma. ::) That's too bad, because Mark seems to have it all. :lol ( To us ladies anyway!) His song writing skills is not quite in the same league as Mark, but he's pretty good. So, absolutely yes to your question. If he's ever on tour near where I live, I will definitely go see him. :)

Yeah, you can't beat that old-school alpha male masculinity!

So we might ask ourselves: what would his sales have been after releasing his first albums if he HAD NOT been Mark's brother and a member of DS? ??? :think
I really like some of his stuff but the music industry is surely cruel, many newcomers get no chance at all. I think in case of David, his past is both his curse as it opened doors

another question could be : what would DS ' sales have been if David had not left the band, and his songs had been released on DS albums ?.....
