Original Review:

This brash, mouthy South Londoner has the impenetrable stage presence of an ox. Nothing, you feel, will throw him nor distract him from the job in hand.

And that job, in the main, seems to be to rant. If Harry Enfield and Paul Whitehouse's ‘Oi Kylie, No’ Self-Righteous Brothers had a living embodiment, it would be him.

On  paper, some of the topics may lack inspiration - isn’t reality TV rubbish? What about those tramps, eh? – and the jokes he extracts from them are often no better. But where he excels is the sheer forceful passion of his simmering outbursts, seething and fuming at the irritations of life.

That’s not to say he doesn’t generate more than a few devastatingly cutting observations, but it’s the vein-throbbing anger, flitting from target to  ‘…and another thing’ target that you’ll remember.

Not yet firmly established on the comedy pecking order, Dynamite’s gigs currently tend to be small ones; though he certainly looks like he could handle himself in a rowdy room, which has to auger well.

Dave headlined Giggle Amp in Sale, Manchester last week and did a brilliant 30 minute set. The audience laughed at almost everything uttered, gestured, & delivered by Dave. He's a very funny comedian.

Des Sharples, June 2007


Saw him at a charity do, absolutely taken unaware, never stopped laughing all night. Very good highly recommended.

Frederick Copeman, October 2006


The man is class. Simply class. Graeme Casey 31.10.05

Ranting is all well and good but you need to have a few decent gags. Alas, Dave Dynamite seems to have everything in place - irritatingly high-pitched voice, dumbfounded appearance, geezer accent - except the gags. I really don't think there's any mileage in his act. Jason Holdcroft 24.10.05

Dave is very good, has an affable, likeable quality to him which can only help endear him to audiences. Plus, helps that he's funny too. Jim Smallman 25.09.05

Jim Smallman, September 2005
