David Cawthorne - Drums

Dave played one gig for Retrofin, then broke his arm snowboarding...
Barking born, now living in Chadwell Heath, (murder capital of the notorious London Road), Dave has an addiction to tattoos, babestation and rock music which he blames on Pantera and Alice in Chains.
Dave started out as a bassist (and most bassists start out as bad guitarists) before ditching four strings and a four skin for the skins. His first band was the brilliantly named Tokyo Psychos which was formed at school and kept him out of the young offender's prison south of the river, before other local outfits; Lydia (rock) and Grinding Crisis (heavy rock/metal) with Retrofin guitarist Wez.

Dave's favourite album of all time is Cowboys From Hell (Pantera) - actually it's Appetite for Destruction, but Wez already claimed that. Dave joined Retrofin after a 12 month smear campaign by Wez against the other Fin drummer(s) and the boys eventually gave in and went for the bald guy. Last year, Dave was chosen by EA Sports and TV presenter Dave Berry to endorse their new Xbox
360 game 'Rock Band' and had to showcase the game at the London Gaming Festival, held in Trafalgar Square.

Fact; It was Dave's idea to cover a BBC outdoor recording van in Retrofin stickers and logos after a drink fuelled gig at Camden's Purple Turtle. The BBC were not happy with Retrofin and we
await our court date...
