IMPOSTER HIJACKS PILOT
DAILY MAIL DUPED!

The national British newspaper The Daily Mail was duped by an impostor claiming to be the singer/guitarist for Pilot. Today, a 2-page spread in the paper chronicles how Pilot's "singer/ guitarist" has struggled over the years with psoriasis that allegedly resulted from a electrocution accident on stage in the late 70s. He claims he quit Pilot because he didn't want to go outside and be seen in his condition and claims to have spent nearly a million dollars from his Pilot earnings to find a cure for psoriasis. Only problem with the story is that it isn't about singer/bassist David Paton or guitarist Ian Bairnson. This appears to be a new twist on identity theft where a deluded person creates a fictitious story to gain publicity and financial gain. We will keep you posted on any new developments. In the meantime, feel free to contact the Daily Mail.
