Worst wigs in rock and roll ?

Sambostar

Always think of Jay Jay French, Kevin Dubrow was cool as fuck, he seemingly didn't seem to outwardly give a shit, what a voice.  Phil Lewis, LA Guns, can't be real either surely.  Thing is, unless you're ancestors were raped by the Arabs that use to take Celtic slaves off the coast of Ireland, or you've had a lot of German ort Mexican in you, it doesn't make genealogical sense.  It's like a woman getting a nose job.

Jesus Christ, a thread about musicians with bad wigs that is bloody old enough to be finishing college, and not one mention or photo of Elton John, and one of a number of his terrible transgressions.  If weaing a bad wig was a crimminal offense, Elton John would be seving a life sentance, you could easily have an entire thread dedicated to all the bad wigs he's worn over the years, hell you could even have threads for each decade he's worn wigs, he's worn that many bad ones.

Ross the Boss never looked comfortable in Manowar, did he?  Even his name didn't fit.

I think the name predates the band by about 7 years. No Ross, no Manowar is the general rule.

I'll take a guess at Gene Simmons?

Joe Lynn Turner has just ditched the wig after many years of wearing one due to alopecia from a young age. His latest album pics shows him without it and so sometimes, there are reasons for this

I think the irony over JLT, is he wasn't the one in Rainbow, that most people thought wore a wig!

Ross had a fairly successful punk career in The Dictators and Shakin Street; you have to wonder what the young Ross would have made of Manowar.

Yeah, think you’re right. His real hair was bad enough but that ^ looks like something he’s salvaged from a Hoover dust bag. 

Philly_Q

Yeah, it is Gene, although his face looks so weird I wasn't sure!  I did a Google search for the image, that picture was taken in 2012!! 
Ten years on, the hair's no better but to be fair he doesn't look any worse (or older) than he did then.

And yet he's been an MP for 25 years, increasing his majority each time.  He may be an utter twat in many, many ways, but perhaps he's not a bad constituency MP.

Or alternatively, perhaps the constituency has been successfully Torified and riff-raff can't afford to live there any more...

I've never been to Lichfield, but is it really that easy to "Torify" an area and force out "riff-raff"?  I don't claim to know.  Fabricant's certainly an eccentric, maybe he's a complete and utter arsehole too, but not many MPs last 25 years.

His hair has definitely been fabricanted.

Exciting news.... Manowar have entered into a joint venture with one of our favourites from the world of wigs...

Arguably the only guitar player I wouldn’t want to play like. Apart from Steven Seagal.
