lurksalot Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 There is an email address on the page , I reckon he will find 20 emails pointing him to the thread Quote

(two photos on right are the same guy) [/quote] I'd go for this one. I'd put money on it and I don't do that lightly. I have a thing for recognising and remembering faces, which I seem to have developed to make up for my inability to remember names. Quote
mep Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 Maybe a Google Alert that will let him know. Quote

tedmanzie Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 Looks like the suspect may be called [i]Fran Pettifer[/i]. Age 55 - would make him around 39 in the photo - does this fit the facts?? I had him down as a bit younger in the original. Quote
mep Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) I thought we was younger too, but he said he was pro in the late 70's. Aged mid 50's now is a must. Edit. We have an email address on his webs site. How long do we leave it before someone contacts him? If anyone is up for it. If I was him and found out about us I would anonymously view the site and thread before making my mind up on joining and fessing to the article. We should seek to encorage him to put us out of our misery. Edited February 26, 2013 by mep Quote
LukeFRC Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 It's been really touching seeing WoT using the Basschat community to put him back in touch with an old flame... Quote

Musky Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 IMHO, the bassist in question has already solved this mystery himself in a reply much earlier in this thread. Quote

wateroftyne Posted February 27, 2013 Author Posted February 27, 2013 The prime candidate hasn't replied to my email yet..... Quote
TimR Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 If it was me I would just gently prod this thread for another day or so before revealing my identity. Got to be plenty of mileage in it yet. Quote

tedmanzie Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 [attachment=128598:waistcoat.jpg] hmmm... colour discrepancy when viewed in greyscale... maybe not! Quote
Donnyboy Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 It may not be The waistcoat, but surely he would have a vast collection? Quote
