I think it was,Reg...when people tried to spell it ****,as in the famous horse(and poet)was when it got asterisked out...I think

Ah!....see what I mean....hes still a pure clown though...oddest looking newsboy I've ever seen

Exactly lead on, if you didn't know him, he looked like he was creeping up behind the interviewee to mug him

Gives cravats a bad name

Looks like a smelly old tramp...maybe hes in some sort of chronic pain but he always looks miserable...I'd feel uncomfortable with him standing right behind me..

Indeed, I was lucky enough to see David Gates (I assume Bread) in concert in early 70's in Bournemouth, support by the Hollies. Some superb songs and the Hollies "Air that I Breath" was pretty good.

Glad this was not another RIP thread.

Onlooker, storm alert and others
My apologies, you did not used to be able to put up the cravat wearing t0ssers name up on here
When I saw him in stalker mode on ITV, I quickly tried to start a thread with something that rhymed with his surname
I didn't know there was a famous Dave Gates, although from my era I should have done

For a moment I thought OP meant David Gates lead singer of Bread.

Even worse here , thought he was toast
