  • When Maurice was four, the Gibbs moved to Manchester, and when he was nine, they moved to Brisbane, Australia and settled in a poor suburb, Cribb Island. As a child, Maurice's favorite group was the Everly Brothers, and loved to listen to "Wake up Little Susie." When the three Gibb brothers started out singing in three-part harmonies, Maurice would take play drums and bass, which in this case were a box with cooking utensils and a string tied to a broom.

  • Maurice Gibb is a Bee Gee.
  • When Maurice was four, the Gibbs moved to Manchester, and when he was nine, they moved to Brisbane, Australia and settled in a poor suburb, Cribb Island. As a child, Maurice's favorite group was the Everly Brothers, and loved to listen to "Wake up Little Susie." When the three Gibb brothers started out singing in three-part harmonies, Maurice would take play drums and bass, which in this case were a box with cooking utensils and a string tied to a broom. It could be suggested that the brothers were publicly discovered thanks to Maurice, who dropped the record they were going to lip-sync to at the town theatre, the result singing with their own voices. As a child Maurice developed a cunning sense of humor, and became known as the group's comedian, doing things like making his tie flip up or telling jokes in between songs at their shows. He saw himself as the "peacemaker" of the group and often settled Barry and Robin's arguments by lightening the mood. Maurice was also fascinated with cameras, and always tried to buy new gadgets as soon as they were available. He would often film home movies with Barry and Robin as the stars.
