BigStewMan Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Okay this might be a weird topic; but, not everyone has Michael Colter hair. I was watching an interview with Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull fame, and he is basically bald. That got me to thinking, traditionally rock musicans are known for having long hair; but, some lose that hair as they age. Thought it would be fun to list some bald or balding musicians. I'll start the list with: Ian Anderson--Jethro Tull Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Islander Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Peter Gabriel. He looks like some kind of elf with that curly little white beard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Islander Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 The Edge? He hasn't been seen without a cap for years. Could he be hiding a shiny dome? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colterphoto1 Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Does Bret Michaels count? NO- not a musician, barely a vocalist, can't even dodge set scenery Rechecking the thread, I see A.N. beat me to it. How about bassist extraordinaire Tony Levin? He's had a clean pate for some time now and his work with King Crimson, Peter Gabriel, and a host of others speaks for itself.

kelA Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Joe Satriani. Has anybody heard the new Chickenfoot album? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garymd Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Sinead O'Connor kidding... Can only think of Bill Kreutzman, The Grateful Dead's drummer and maybe Seal although I don't think I've ever heard him. I've seen his picture on the side of DC's buses though. David Crosby's getting there as is Stephen Stills. Many of our great 60's and 70's long haired musicians are now bald. How about Peter Frampton? Oh, I said great, didn't I? Nevermind.

I'll start the list with:Ian Anderson--Jethro Tull Saw JethroTull for the fourth time a few years ago. The same impact as the 70's. God bless flying Altec's . Ian Anderson sported a cap to cover his head, but still did that thing with his right foot on his left knee. Tull fans will know what I mean. tc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigStewMan Posted June 9, 2009 Author Share Posted June 9, 2009 Oh yes, I saw tull back in either 1979 or 80. I remember Ian's pose very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
