    Didn't one of the Drummers get done for under age years before Paul Gadd was found out?

    Never heard so...they were still touring long after Glitter was found out....had a quick look, they were Pete Phipps and Tony Leonard..I can't see anything untoward.

    This reminds me of a gig-related disaster I had a few years ago, but I think it deserves its own thread rather than being buried away in one on Gary Glitter.

    I don't know if anyone saw, but apparently Mr Gadd was interviewed on GB News yesterday complaining about woke "cancel culture". A bit rich for a nonce with multiple convictions in several countries.

    Edit: I forgot to add earlier, but the wife saw him at a festival in the 80s and he had visible trackmarks down his arms, so he was likely a heroin addict for a few years.

    Pete Gill, later of Son of a Bitch/Saxon and Motorhead, also drummed with the Glitter Band in the 70s.
