Dave Dobbyn
David Joseph Dobbyn ONZM (born 3 January 1957) is a New Zealand musician, singer–songwriter and record producer. In his early career he was a member of the rock group Th' Dudes and was the main creative force in pop band DD Smash. Since then he has released the majority of his recordings as a solo performer.
Early life
Dave Dobbyn was born in 1957 in the working class areas of Glen Innes, Auckland the third of five children to tour-bus driver Terry Dobbyn and Molly. He was influenced by music from a young age, ranging from the Irish songs his father listened to, to the music of the church across the road, to the various radio stations he was able to pick up on the family radiogram. While his family had a piano at home, he was the only member to not receive piano lessons, something he was grateful for in retrospect as it meant he was able to come to it without memories of strict lessons. He, along with his three brothers, attended the local Catholic college Sacred Heart College, where he would meet Ian Morris and Peter Urlich. While Sacred Heart actively encouraged music, Dobbyn was too shy to be involved, and on graduating high school worked nine months as a bank teller, and applied to teachers college twice, to be accepted on the second try. As he started teacher's college he was asked by Morris and Urlich to join the band that would become Th' Dudes.

Modular connector
A modular connector is an electrical connector that was originally designed for use in telephone wiring, but has since been used for many other purposes. Many applications that originally used a bulkier, more expensive connector have converted to modular connectors. Probably the most well known applications of modular connectors are for telephone jacks and for Ethernet jacks, both of which are nearly always modular connectors.
Modular connectors were originally used in the Registration Interface system, mandated by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in 1976 in which they became known as registered jacks. The registered jack specifications define the wiring patterns of the jacks, not the physical dimensions or geometry of the connectors of either gender. Instead, these latter aspects are covered by ISO standard 8877, first used in ISDN systems. TIA/EIA-568 is a standard for data circuits wired on modular connectors.
Other systems exist for assigning signals to modular connectors; physical interchangeability of plugs and jacks does not ensure interoperation, nor protection from electrical damage to circuits. For example, modular cables and connectors have been used to supply low-voltage AC or DC power and no clear standard exists for this application.

Waiting
by: Dave DobbynIf you've been waiting- You've been waiting too long
Just when you thought you could go on forever- Yeah
You've been waiting- You've been waiting too long
Just when you thought you could hold it all together
Your mind real wild
Way south of any bordered country
In a land where the darkness is slow turning
In the twilight of a postcard island lie
Little ashtrays of industrial dreams
And you- Yeah you- Stranded on the moon
Just to keep it all in the back of your head
While you zoom- Consume- Little laughter from the gloom
Just to keep it all in the back of your head now
If you've been waiting- you've been waiting too long
Just when you thought you could go on forever- Yeah
And you've been waiting- you've been waiting too long
Just when you thought you could hold it all together
The world unwinds and your mind keeps a spinning out
In the chaos of a river thrashing
All that water and still got to stand in line
Everything you ever wanted truly
In a word carved in stone just beyond your touch
Touch- Thank you very much
Just to keep it all in the back of my head
While you zoom consume- Little bandits on the moon
Just to keep it all in the back of your head
Well the world's unkind I am here to remind you
If you've been waiting- You've been waiting too long
Just when you thought you could go on forever- Yeah
If you've been waiting- You've been waiting too long
Just when you thought you could hold it all together
The world unwinds and your mind keeps a-spinning out
A fine line's been drawn here
Your tidy world has exploded into pieces
A songline's been sung here- It's part of you
It's in blood and tattooed to your heart
If you've been waiting- You've been waiting too long
Just when you thought you could go on forever- Yeah
You've been waiting- You've been waiting too long
Just when you thought you could hold it all together-
Yeah
You've been waiting- You've been waiting too long
Just when you thought you could go on forever- now
If you've been waiting- You've been waiting too long
Just when you thought you could
Just when you thought you could go on
Hah- Oh
You've been waiting too long
Spinning out a line
Your mind keeps spinning out a line
You've been waiting too long
