THIS IS DAVE ROWNTREE.

He's quite beautiful, isn't he? A lovely head of ginger hair, striking blue eyes and simple sense of style. He's smart, intellectual, technologically and politically inclined, and he plays the drums. He sounds like the perfect man. Perfect to be a husband, or best friend. You wouldn't even suspect that he was in danger at all. But he is.

WHAT IS HAPPENING TO DAVE ROWNTREE?

No one seems to remember his name. No one seems to remember his face. No one even seems to remember that he exists at all. This is called Dave erasure. There are many photo sets of Blur and their members, where Dave seems to be missing. There are group images of Blur where Dave is missing. There are interviews of Blur where Dave is missing. Hell, there's a Blur interview where Dave is there, but he goes completely unacknowledged.

WHAT IS THE #STOPDAVEIGMORANCE CAMPAIGN?

happydave

I have started the #StopDaveIgnorance campaign to prevent Dave from ever being neglected again. Ways you can help support the #StopDaveIgnorance is by spreading the hashtag around social media, streaming Dave's new album "Radio Songs" on Spotify and buying the album to help support him and spreading around your favourite photos of Dave with the hashtag #StopDaveIgnorance. To become a part of the #StopDaveIgnorance team, leave a message in the guestbook. The #StopDaveIgnorance team works hard to find obscure photos, videos and general content of Dave's in order to prevent the future spread of Dave ignorance.
