magisme Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Poor guy. I don't think that's just a bald spot though. I think he has a serious case of male pattern baldness that he can disguise with the long curly hair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trqster Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Balding's a bitch! Now that would make for a nice chit chat between Slash and Axl... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moreblack Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Hasn't played without it since the Contraband tour I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom-Ass Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 I just think it looks totally cliche and cheesy at this point. I get that it is his signature hat but to wear it every song of every show is just overkill. It looks especially silly when he is headbanging and it is just stuck to his head. He should just bust it out during Paradise City or something..I get he is 50 and is most likely balding or whatever. Why not just wear a ballcap or one of those aither hats he wears when you see him joining some band onstage at a club? They look a hell of alot cooler..

moreblack Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Or a bandana, I'd say it's probably because that's what every other balding musician would do and has done, from SRV to Satriani and Santana. Although Satch finally gave up and shaved it all off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nosaj Thing Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 I agree. I don't see the point in wearing it all the time for live shows. We all know that's Slash playing up there.If hiding the baldness is the issue, then wear a baseball cap like all the going-bald people do, or a bandana - as suggested above.

tomfriend Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 (edited) Poor guy. I don't think that's just a bald spot though. I think he has a serious case of male pattern baldness that he can disguise with the long curly hair.Probably. With his hair I doubt many would notice if he shaved that shit off and wore a wig like every other 45+ none hat-wearing rocker besides Jimmy Page. But then Weiland might call HIM a wig-wearing son of a bitch at some point and the boo hoos will start.

Laparka Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 He's probably going to look like a african-american version of Shane Embury without his hat.But I agree, it's time to drop it and keep it for the encore...But Slash is still extremely popular to the public eye and media, so Slash = top hat = cool ...

JoGer99 Posted October 14, 2014 Author Share Posted October 14, 2014 He should perform more often with that kind of hat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan Rose Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Robert Plant is winning on the hair front but losing on the craggy face front. Bowie's hair is amazing. Totally real according to everything i've read.I really liked the part-braided weave Axl wore for the New Year's 01/02 shows ans even the Rio 3 weave looked good. I imagine he just couldn't be arsed with all the faff of having it put on and taken off all the time and getting sweaty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
