Never got to see

My missus and I were lucky enough to see Chas n Dave on their last tour before he got ill....they rocked the Crewe it was not only the last time we would get to see Chas n Dave but my missus passed away at the beginning of 2018 and so It was also the last concert we went to together.

Ain't no pleasing you had me to tears as you can imagine....So many memories. 💔

I cried on the night at the bit where Dave tears up in Ain't No Pleasing You and I'm tearing up I'm a grown 60 year old bloke.

RIP 😇😇😇 Chas Hodges . I really miss their music. It really made me laugh when ever I heard them sing, their type of music really cheered me up whenever I was feeling down.

[martinconnor]

I love Chas & Dave. Have done since I was about 10 (53 now) just proper music. So good. Love it. RIP Chas and Mick

[lynne]

so glad I found this, so much talent all together on one stage, brilliant tribute to a great musician R I P Chas, you were unique, love all your songs, I was brought up singing all the old tunes sitting outside the pub waiting for mum and dad with my bottle of pop and packet of this is real music, I'm so proud to be a child of the 60's, keep on rocking up there Chas.

I served pie mash in their boozer back in the day... absolute legends and true gentlemen.

Great Band - great memories. I played in a Group in the early sixties at fabulous long since gone venues such as The Bridge House E16, Dukes Head E6, Greyhound-Seven Kings, Royal Oak-Goodmayes, Roundhouse-Barking, Church Elm-Dagenham (where I seem to recall, Jimmy Page had a valued Gibson stolen), Double Six-Basildon etc etc . Thanks, Chas, Dave, Albert, Joe etc for keeping us all going.

In Newcastle's promotion season 1983/84 we played Chelsea at StJames Park, there was quite a bit of bad feelings between the rival fans, Chelsea had brought a fair few fans up. Then at half time the loudspeaker started blasting out a Chas and Dave song, I can't quite remember which one, the atmosphere completely changed, I think whoever was playing the record thought it was a bit of a pizz take but in reality they probably stopped a lot of people getting filled in.

I grew up listening to Chas n Dave, whenever I listen too em it reminds me of the good times when grandparents where still about 😢Proppa music for Proppa Sir Chas 🙏🏻

[robertfish]

A Joanna. Sax, big bass. And a good Banter.
I loved his piano skills. Still do. There should be a statue of them.

[tomhorn]

Ain´t no pleasing you: The first song, here I danced with my wife in 1982. Sometimes we still dance after that today... Thanks Chas, thanks Dave!

We had a verse in our Wedding vows
With the Blessing from Chas August 2015 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I saw Chas and Dave at the Starlight Rooms in Enfield must have been the eighties loved them ever since. What a fabulous line up of talent to send the great man off. BRILLIANT.

[philjoneshammersley]

This was a fabulous night in Shepherds Bush....I had the pleasure of interviewing Chas a number of times & was a real pleasure to know him...will miss getting his texts in the middle of the night asking if i was awake, as he was often on his way home from a gig :-) Cheers for the memories Chas & hope Dave continues the musical magic!! x

[eddiehumphrys]
