After a little chat with a few of you on another thread, I think we summised that Satch didn't look to cool, not so very long ago!
Which other heros have you seen lately and thought ?????
This should be a fun one! 8) :lol:
P.S no photos of Tim allowed :D
-
AAAAAAAAGES ago, someone on this forum posted a picture of Slayer in the early 80's kitted out in their finest Spandex. That made me laugh. Anyone remember this?
-
Steve Vai has my vote. Despite his talent it seems that guy is forver chasing bad fashion ideas. DLR and Whitesnake saw him in some of his finest threads. A Guitar World mag from last year had a pic of him in a fur coat and platforms :roll:
-
I remember a picture of John Frusciante, circa 1998/9, wearing an all-in-one skin tight, studded, bright red bodysuit. It was, er...interesting.
Plus, anything Dave Navarro has done after 2001.
And Vai...
and, it might just be me, but did anyone else feel a little bit embarassed seeing Slash rocking out and throwing all his rock god-shapes to a bunch of over-excited 14 year olds at Live 8?
-
didnt see that slash moment willo but sounds a bit strange....
-
Willow...I never would have admited that to myself but now you come to mention it!!!
-
Yngwie. Does it get any more embarrassing?
-
oh yer forgot malmsteen! hahaha
-
Metallica in the Load and Reload era. Short hair, black mascara and Kirk's lip piercing. They looked rediculous. Anton Corbijn's photos were great though.
-
Zakk Wylde when he wore silly bell bottoms and a bowlers hat :lol:
Marty Friedman in a pink PVC jacket and platform boots
-
Modern day Ozzy.
What has Sharon turned him into... :(
Muttley
-
Zakk Wylde was cool when he first joined Ozzy and looked like a guitar god in waiting.
Lately with the long Viking Beard andd Biker gear he looks like a tramp.
I still think his playing is great but he could do with a shave!

But would you say this to Zakk's face? :lol:

Ozzy doing f***king butter ads!! WTF!!! :shock: :shock:

Yes i would. I'd go up to him and say "OI! rock star! NO!!!"
-
I would too, walked past him at Ozzfest last year. He is not as scary as the pics make out. Does look as drunk though lol.
Ozzy the puppet, bless him. Well he has been in USA Hollyweird too long and with all those mutts Sharon is dressing him like a Hollyweird doggy now "sit Ozzy, now roll over" lol.
I must say when I saw VR that Weiland is a little odd. Maybe he is another Halford and I don't know it, hmmm, who knows.

I probably wouldnt mess with either especially if he'd had a few beers
I'm just stuck in the 80s where guitarists were interested in attracting girls...
I dont know a single girl who doesn't prefer the old clean shaven Zakk

Heh, my sister used to be quite taken with Zakk back when he was the new guitarist for the Ozzy band -- I'm not sure she'd admit to it any more ;)
Spandex was not, in general, a good look for anyone. Some of those old Iron Maiden vids ... sheesh! :o But I've got to put in a mention for the freaky duds that Sabbath often sported in the 70s -- that weird fringed thing Ozzy used to stagger about in, f'r inst'nce. There are transvestite pimps that dress who would that stuff was a bit over the top! Oh, and the cover of Sabotage is just ugly. Damn.
My two pesos, anyway ....
-
Spandex is deffinately UNCOOL. Might as well go buck necked like the Cilli Peppers.
Zakk, get a shave!
It's very unappetising when seeing Zakk doing a solo with all that drool running down that beard.

I always assumed that was beer! Otherwise, he needs a rabies shot. (Possibly a good idea anyway .... :))
-
hahahah when my mum first saw a pic of the younger Zakk she said "Does he still look like that then?!" so I searched google and found one of the newer ones...she wasnt impressed :lol: :lol:
-
I must be the only person who thinks Zakk looks better as he has aged, but then I also remember the fashion disasters in the 80's - CC Deville anybody?. Zakks beard rocks, and metal isn't supposed to be cool. At least those stupid nu-metal beards seem to be disappearing as well - sideburns Mastodan style are in!
I've heard an interesting story (think it was from Tom Morello) where a hells angel mate of Zakk's actually apologised for Zakk being drunk and interrupting Tom on stage.

Well, for my part, I think Zakk's beard looks fine (though occasionally a bit grungy), but then I'm a (straight) guy and I always liked ZZ Top anyway. 8)

Yeah, forget his hair style -- what I have a problem with is Zakk being drunk off his ass. It makes him play bad and act like a jerk, as far as I can tell! And that segment on the Boozed, Broozed & Broken-Boned DVD where the whole band is just goofing around being wasted is so incredibly boring. Who the hell though putting that there was better than more of that Japanese footage?! Ah well, I heard a rumour that the ol' Zakkster was acting a bit more sobered up recently, so hopefully this is true!

When anything nu-metal (so lame is doesn't deserve an umlaut!) disappears, it's a good thing, IMO! Though when I eventually lose enough hair (any day now ;)), I'll cut it short, buy a white tropical suit and some shades, and grow a little Emilio Estefan beard. Then I'll just need the swimming pool to line up my guitars by and some drinks with umbrellas in them 8)

hahah fat ass sideburns are even WORSE than beards!

When I was in university, I for some reason thought growing huge Mike-Nesmith-style sideburns was a good idea. :o Eventually, for the best really, I went off this idea .... :)
These days, the missus an' meself occasionally play "Beard Chicken": she says "Hey, let the beard grow" and I say "Yeah, all right" ('cause I hate shaving) and then we'll see which one of us breaks first. (Usually, things run for about a month and then she breaks down and tells me to shave again ;)).
More usually I do that Don-Johnson stubble thing (though in a less 80s kinda way :)).
But at least I've never been tempted to wear spandex! :P
-
Indeed, shaving is the worst! I feel like such a tramp if I dont shave though, and I look stupid with stubble/beardy thing :lol: ANYWAY back to rock gods... I cant think of any that are "embarrasing"
-
i say "hooray" for all the loony rockers that wear mad clothes! it's always good to have a couple of bands that are, ahem, "keepin' it real for the kids" like Metallica in their jeans and trainers back in the 80's, but these guys are up on stage putting on a show, which is not reality, and it's great when they look like they're from another planet.
i still think the funniest picture i've ever seen was an off duty Brett Michaels of Poison in a pair of pink shorts and a wool tank top! really, he looked a lot better in skin tight lycra and half an inch of make-up... er, in an entirely manly way of course...
-
oh, and if you look to the left you'll see just how absurd i look :oops:
-
So why didn't you get that role in 'The Passion'? :twisted: :wink:

As in "The Passion of the Christ" movie?! HAHAHAHA!

Embarrisment factor I wasn't going to contribute but then I was reading the about the Thin Lizzy 20/20 tour
How about Brian Robertson when he was in Motorhead he appeared wearing Turquoise silk shorts and headband.
To be honest this image is once again haunting me, I will try to hunt out some pics to scare the youngsters.
Ih yeah any dave Hill photo is embarrising too.
Rob...

That's not a good look anywhere, let alone in Motörhead :)
Still, head bands aside, I think the Another Perfect Day album Robbo played on has some tracks, much overlooked!
