DAVIES DENIES QUAIFE MEMORIAL SNUB
THE KINKS star DAVE DAVIES has denied snubbing a planned memorial for his former bandmate PETE QUAIFE - insisting he doesn’t want to "make a spectacle" of the tragedy.
Quaife died in June (10) from kidney failure, and the band’s frontman Ray Davies has accused his estranged brother Dave of refusing to reform the band for a tribute concert.
But Davies has now hit back, insisting he has already attended a private memorial for Quaife and fears a concert will turn his death into "a PR exercise".
Dave Davies tells Uncut magazine, "I run spiritual healing groups, and when Pete passed away I spoke to his brother and girlfriend and we had a memorial service. It was very private, very peaceful. I don’t want to make a spectacle of Pete’s death. It’s not a PR exercise. I have concerns about what Ray is planning."
