1. Dude from Flock of Seagulls?

He had weird eyeballs and shit back then.

[Tektonik]

2. I know who it is

but I'll let people try to answer without spoiling it. :P

[BurtWorm]

3. He looks like a very fat, old and bald Joe Jackson in the first pic

but not in the others...

:shrug:

4. That is one George O'Dowd

I will not relate his stage name, though, because I want to see if anyone else gets it.

[Tektonik]

5. Hopefully he remains cleaned up

10. Yup--and I too will refrain from saying it.nt

[Bunny]

6. He is completely anonymous without his usual get-up, isn't he?

8. Reminds me of when David Crosby did that term in jail in the 1980s

He came out, short-haired and clean-shaven, and looked a lot like a sheriff from a small southern town, especially with the sunglasses on.



He was only 45 in this picture. Scary how drugs and jail can age you.

[Richardo]

9. He does have the scalp tattoo now...

So there's that. :shrug:

19. Except when he sings

Say what you will but the man can sing.

[Pacifist Patriot]

7. Boy George?

[RebelOne]

11. No longer a boy. n/t

[BurtWorm]

18. A lot more of a George, too.

[Shell Beau]

12. That blows my mind. He looks completely different.

[Arugula Latte]

13. Holeee Guacamole. I can't believe that's him!

:wow:

[bikebloke]

14. The head tattoo gave him away.

[Dogtown]

15. The years have not been kind

I had no idea till i read upstream.

Damn.

I'll say it: I liked the Boy's bubblegum tunes.

But then, I like ABBA, too...

16. The years, and the nose candy

Cocaine addiction can take a big physical toll on the body as well as the brain.

[Dogtown]

17. I thought his thing was heroine?

If he was tooting AND shooting, i'm surprised he's alive.

We can't all be Keith Richards.

[no name no slogan]

20. I think heroine was his main drug (the one his bro tried to get him off of)

but he also did cocaine, too.

And you're right about tooting and shooting. Not many people survive that.

And Keith Richards is one of the undead. There's no other plausible explanation. :P
