Post The Worst, Most Awkward Photos Of Your Favorite Bands

[EagleMoon]

Okay, so who here can look back on their own hairstyles from years past and not cringe a little?

 

Hair is one thing - but some of the clothes - and the fact that people were employed to put these looks together

 

The 80s !!!

 

I get you. The thing was to stand out and wear what would make them look different and exotic....and worth people buying their records.

Is that Robert Smith?

 

It looks like some ungodly hybrid of Tiny Tim and Brian May.

me....always had the same short hair...just less and less of it as years went by.

 

The only change in my style through the years was the color of Chuck Taylor hightops I was wearing.

Seriously, what was he thinking?

 

He was thinking. This shirt is worth more money in cocaine than your entire house.

 

I don't even know who this IS...

 

Any help, anybody? Do I want to know?

 

Sir Chris Squire

 

:o

 

Holy crap. Wowza.

 

His shirt says "Oui"...but I say "Non!"

That shirt screams Christmas/Birthday present from a close female acquiantence.

 

They're always trying to make us 'fashionable'.

At this point in his life he just needs to shave his head, drop the lipstick and then at the least he'll look as dignified as Black Francis

I definitely think the overall theme of this thread is to not do drugs.

This just SCREAMS sentai/Power Rangers shit!

 

 

About a decade back, I was at this club in Tokyo which had multiple floors and stages to view various bands/performers (different genres too). The building itself looked like a mini tower. This one metal band I saw playing had a pair of lightning fast guitarists. Two of the fastest I've ever seen perform live actually. The songs were pretty cliche but that speed was undeniable. Still, the thing that struck me the most was the members' stupid posing before songs, during songs, and after songs. It was so absurd that I was laughing through half of the songs I tolerated listening to. It was fun not because of the music but because of the ridiculousness of it all. This picture reminded of that night. Thanks. :)

Can't recognize them. They could be anybody, including some run of the mill neighborhood dudes back in the 80s.

Scorpions got it going in this thread in two different decades
