Lets Give Up Everything and Go live in A Van

by Doozer McDooze

supported by

andreawright63 Love this Doozer.

Esther Wheatley Doozer is one of those rare people who CAN please all the people all the time. He's bloody great. He's a regular hero of the (muddy) field. When you can't be catching him on stage, you should be listening to his words of wisdom. Here they are, on this here album. Warning: you can take the boy out of Essex and make him go and live in a van and play at lots of amazing festies and pubs and stuff, but you can never, never take the Essex out of the boy. Just so you know. Favorite track: Self Unemployed (skint on our own terms).

"sounds really good mate" Les Carter

"what you doing in my House, get out" Funke and the Two Tone Baby

you should put this out" Gail Something Else

"Add a bit of Doozer to your night, and check out his new album here for it oozes with real-ness, brilliant lyrics and well... it oozes with Dooziness" - Ned The kids Dylan

"more than worth a listen " Wineglass

John Shuttleworth "BUY THIS ALBUM!!! It's awesome!!!
Doozer has done a splendid job, as always."

Kev Daintree "That professional loafer Doozer McDooze has gone and made a new CD, why don't you treat yerself to a copy, he's quite good ya know……………"

Pete Williams "The latest bunch of earworms from the man that lives in a van. Enjoy and wonder why, like me, at the weirdest moments his catchy choruses fit!!!"

Mark Goodman "New album from the rather wonderful Doozer McDooze Go on, you know you want to.... I have "

Busdweller "Dooze pulls off more magic"

Les Carter "You should all buy this it is great x 10"

Caroline Wineglass Daniel "Take a listen party people, best wasted few minutes of your life for sure go on do it now!!! Xxx"

Jameson Barnes "With titles like "I think politicians should be put on minimum wage", with lyrics that are often amusing and show a fair bit of consciousness, should strike a chord with the right people!"

Southend Who? "Breezy, bouncy, summery and unpretentiously real. Well done Doozer McDooze! Best enjoyed with sunshine and a cider!"

Michael Shepherd "A thought that regularly crosses my mind. Here's the new album from the prince of the small festivals,"

Alex I AM - "Doozer done an album. If you buy it then he can eat. If you don't he will starve to death.Yeah, how'd you like that? Dead folk gnome on your conscience. He's got a girlfriend called birdy, she'll die, and she's well nice. He also has a van whose name I can't remember, that will probably be the first one to die, Doozer and Birdy'll probably eat it in a desperate attempt to extend the meandering path of misery and starvation leading to their inevitable demise at your idle, non-album-buying hands. So yeah, like, buy it and that, alright?"

Sean Gleeson-Mcilhatton - "Its a good listen make no mistake"

The more recent albums have been good (though I'm still to be convinced by Lost Folk), but this is still Gaz's best album. Cornish Fishing Town is superb (loved the duet with Nick at South Petherton a few years ago), but Knights of the Round Table is another level again - my absolute favourite Gaz song, though not one for live shows, sadly. zummerzet66
