Beard started at?
Any dates for when he started growing that immaculate beard? - 72.140.85.251 (talk) 20:00, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

This guy looks more like a wizard than anybody I have ever seen in my entire life. Golden Hound (talk) 08:31, 18 July 2009 (UTC)


 * I'll address this here. According to the following website, in a 2010 interview, Sklar claims to have stopped shaving upon high school graduation in 1965: Sklar Interview. At any rate, someone's attempt to be cute, writing: "He was soon asked to record with others, and his long beard began" is not only inaccurate and poorly cited, but irrelevant. If someone wants to write about the guy's beard, please do it properly.  This is supposed to be an encyclopedic article, not an open mic. o0drogue0o 09:42, 3 April 2013 (UTC)  — Preceding unsigned comment added by O0drogue0o (talk • contribs)

Toured with Toto in 2007 any more significant than all the other tours?
"He toured with Toto beginning in 2007 until the band broke up in 2008. He was filling in for Mike Porcaro, who was injured." So not officially a member of the band. If this is supposed to be recent then how about the current Troubadour Reunion with James Taylor and Carole King? —Preceding unsigned comment added by BoboLink81 (talk • contribs) 17:43, 2 February 2010 (UTC)

More info on touring prefered
In this article it says: "He is remembered for appearing in Phil Collins' "Something Happened on the Way to Heaven" video when the dog in the video peed on his shoes." Honestly, that doesn't seem much to be remembered for. But talking of music videos, he also appears as an actor (not only as a musician) in Collins' video for "Don't Lose My Number". However, as a fan of Phil Collins I know and appreciate Leland Sklar for being a member of Collins' band during the No Jacket Required tour (1985), But Seriously tour (1990) and First Final Farewell tour (2004-2005). I am sure he has done tours with various other artists during the years, and information about that would be interesting! 92.32.219.4 (talk) 17:35, 30 August 2013 (UTC)
