giblet Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Saw he is standing for election down in the Borders as an independent. Not really heard of this character before to my shame, seems a bit of an oddball? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orraloon Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Went to see him a few times back in the 90s (might have been the 80s?). Fantastic showman and pretty decent music. He fair got the crowd going that's for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aaid Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Saw Jesse Rae live a couple of times in the 80s. I think the female drummer - absolute babe - was his girlfriend at the time. I remember reading that he wouldn't take the helmet off until Scotland got her Independence. Didn't hear much about him for years but he popped up ion TV during the referendum, in a tractor, in the borders, with all the gear on.

Mindimoo Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Does he dress like that as well? Of course, that's why I said he looks like Flora. He alternates between Jesse and Brandon Flowers (hence the name Flora). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
