A Big So WATT!?

Note the following from my recent January 20th post, A BIG So WAT?!:

One of the cast in particular stands out:  Brett Watson as Chief Arbiter Lothar Schmid. It's the "wat" in "Watson" that connects to Rob MacGregor re my November 6, 2016 post,  Rob's Big So W-Hatt (Wellington Part 73)

The key is "Wat/Watt", and now note this addition to the Deaths in 2017 site under January 22:

• Pete Overend Watts, 69, English bass guitarist (Mott the Hoople), throat cancer

We have another Addition to the "Wat/Watt Theme" pattern-cluster.  Note from his wiki page:

• Peter Overend Watts (13 May 1947 – 22 January 2017) 

That he was born on May 13 is meaningful.  First because my birthday is June 13 and so we have a "__, May 13, June 13, __/ 13th Day, Month Sequence" pattern-cluster.  And to top it off, note the following again from my January 20th post, A Big So WAT?!:

• Lothar Maximilian Lorenz Schmid (10 May 1928 – 18 May 2013)

So we now have a "May 5, .... 10, ..... 16, 17, 18(x3), _, 20, _, _, 23... 28/ Date Sequence" pattern-cluster . 

And we can add one more to the cluster:

•  "May 5, .... 10, _, _, 13, _, _, 16, 17, 18(x3), _, 20, _, _, 23... 28/ Date Sequence" pattern-cluster . 

This investigation turns now to Mott the Hoople, and info on the other band members:

• Dale "Buffin" Griffin  (24 October 1948 – 17 January 2016) 
• Ian Hunter  (born 3 June 1939)
• Mick Ralphs  (born 31 March 1944)
• Verden Allen  (26 May 1944)
• Morgan Fisher  (born 1 January 1950, Mayfair, London)
• Ariel Bender  (born 23 December 1946)
• Mick Ronson  (26 May 1946 – 29 April 1993)
• Ray Major
• Nigel Benjamin
• Steve Hyams
• John Fiddler

Two were born on May 26, expanding the cluster:

•  "May 5, .... 10, _, _, 13, _, _, 16, 17, 18(x3), _, 20, _, _, 23, _, _, 26(x2), _, 28/ Date Sequence" pattern-cluster . 

The prominent gap to investigate is May 19, so using the formula... we arrive at: 

• Alexey Petrovich Maresyev (May 20, 1916 – May 19, 2001)

Expanding the cluster twice:

• "May 5, .... 10, _, _, 13, _, _, 16, 17, 18(x3), 19, 20,(x2) _, _, 23, _, _, 26(x2), _, 28/ Date Sequence" pattern-cluster . 

Other notable persons mentioned on the bands wiki page:

• Guy Stevens (13 April 1943 – 28 August 1981) 
• Willard Manus (born September 28, 1930)
• "Sonny" Bono (Feb16, 1935 – January 5, 1998)  Mary Bono (October 24, 1961) 
• Bridget St John (4 October 1946
• David Robert Jones (8 January 1947 – 10 January 2016)
• "Andy" Mackay (born 23 July 1946)
•  "Blue" Weaver (born 11 March 1947
• Luther James Grosvenor (born 23 December 1946
• Lynsey de Paul (11 June 1948^{[nb 1]}– 1 October 2014)
• Freddie Mercury (5 September 1946 – 24 November 1991)
• Brian Harold May (born 19 July 1947) 
• Roger Meddows Taylor (born 26 July 1949)
• Martin Dale Chambers (born 4 September 1951)

Stevens birthday expands one of the clusters above:

• "April 13,  May 13, June 13, _/ 13th Day, Month Sequence" pattern-cluster.  

And so to bridge the July 13 gap we use the formula as per usual and take into consideration the "curve ball", we arrive at:

• 1997 – Miguel Ángel Blanco, Spanish politician (b. 1968)

• Miguel Ángel Blanco Garrido (13 May 1968 – 13 July 1997)  

And so the clusters expand:

• "April 13,  May 13(x2), June 13, July 13/ 13th Day, Month Sequence" pattern-cluster 
•  "May 5, .... 10, _, _, 13(x2), _, _, 16, 17, 18(x3), 19, 20(x2), _, _, 23, _, _, 26(x2), _, 28/ Date Sequence" pattern-cluster .  

And now in search of a third May 13... we arrive at:

• Hao Wang (20 May 1921 – 13 May 1995)  

Expanding one of the clusters:

• "May 5, .... 10, _, _, 13(x2), _, _, 16, 17, 18(x3), 19, 20(x3), _, _, 23, _, _, 26(x2), _, 28/ Date Sequence" pattern-cluster   

An amazing cluster!!
