Untitled[edit]

Can someone please confirm which is the correct date of birth as two are shown. PMBO 18:40, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

And on the IMDb it says 1964 [1]. It says 1964 at his AOL music page as well[2]. - Zepheus <ゼィフィアス> 20:17, 12 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, 1962 appears to be the birth year of concensus. Article amended accordingly, including relevant citation.

"born 22 June 1961" May be he is born ob June 22th 1962. Velirand (talk) 11:49, 6 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Primal Scream-specific content[edit]

A lot of the content here is about Primal Scream rather than Gillespie himself - I would suggest merging/moving that to the Primal Scream article and leaving the Gillespie-specific stuff here.--Michig 09:56, 28 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

How is it vandalism to mention that Bobby's socialist ideals do not gel with his lifestyle and social views?

Can we have a citation for the reference to the fact that Bobby Gillespie has shown interest in Scientology?

I've a feeling that it's a load of rubbish, unless he went to dinner with Beck and Juliette Lewis and they brainwashed him. I think it should be removed, 'cos Gillespie is not that stupid.

Gillespie is the dumbest man alive, it wouldn't surprise me at all.

How do you know? Have you met him? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.75.75.166 (talk) 21:20, 5 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"He then accused festival headliners Coldplay of being boring " That's a bit like accusing Mick Jagger of being ugly! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.168.11.8 (talk) 18:15, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
