Lindsey and Cosmo Kramer?
My dear iamnotafraid, I am telling you the truth! By hair alone, certainly there is a resemblance. But that does not qualify enough to be called a "twin." I just see nothing else physically about Michael Richards and Lindsey or Art Garfunkel and Lindsey that really stands out for me. I think MR is the same age as LB, but that's about all they have in common for me.

Here you go (all recent pics):

MR, AG, and LB

Good gracious this just shows how stunning Lindsey is in comparison to the other two. I appreciate him all the more now.

thanks for taking the time to put these together - i think i'll use this from now on every time a read a hair-related tweet after some LB tv performance...

EDIT: here's my tweet with a link to twitpic (had to make a composite of the 3):
@ellellew Lindsey Buckingham, Art Garfunkel, Michael Richards - do they look alike to you?! http://twitpic.com/7i0rgf

No contest, Lindsey's face has always had beautiful features (those eyes, those lips) even though his forehead is very prominent he still looks way better than most men his age.

Nico,
First let me thank you for taking the time to post
those pictures. And you don't get mad, another
thing to thank you for. If someone looks
at pictures of Cosmo and Lindsey side by side,
especially when their hair is of same height the
resemblance is uncanny. More so back in the
90's when Richards was playing Cosmo, and Lindsey
was rocking that hairdo.

Elle,
The similarites are more than just physical. Richards
is probably the best physical comedy actor since
Don Knotts. Almost that same spastic energy that
makes Lindsey such a good concert artist. Watch
Seinfeld, and then watch Lindsey running around the
stage. Twins seperated at birth I'd say.

How funny would it have been if Lindsey had got to
play Cosmo's brother on one episode of Seinfeld?

i like that - spastic energy. don't think that's what people refer to when they compare them (it is really just the hair everybody seems to see ), but you may be onto something there...

Freaking LOVE IT!!! Elle is the LB Twitter Queen. I can't even imagine what my LB world would be like without your updates and spontaneous bursts of creative tweets. Thank you.

the references to his looking like Art Garfunkel refer to the younger Art, when he was still performing with Paul Simon-- and the similarity is in the hair (and nowadays, the forehead)-- he was never as good looking as LB.

See, I am of the ilk that considers LB on the realm of gorgeous that I also consider Matt Bomer, so some two-bit big-haired guy (no matter what the credentials because I LOVE Seinfeld and Simon & Garfunkel's music is the stuff dreams are made of) is an easy comparison. BUT I did like your very savvy comparison to MR's movement/physical comedy explanation to elle. I can roll with that one much better. See, those two dudes are just not even in the same vicinity in looks as Lindsey's...shoe to me. So I just have to get it out there. MR isn't an unattractive man, but no. And Art Garfunkel? Let me be nice.

But Bombay, in all fairness you'd have to compare the younger LB's hair to the younger Garfunkel's. I mean, this is what I'm getting at. People are actually saying, "they could be brothers" and "they're twins." So my mind isn't going back 4 decades and thinking about young Garfunkel. I'm thinking, "Oh they mean now. Um...HELL NO."

Now when they were younger, yes, both dudes had the fro look going. But even in his youth, Garfunkel's fro just didn't have the bouncy allure and texture of LB's. But the youth comparison makes more sense to me. I won't sneer at it.

Nico,
I get what you are saying but I think you are being too literal : )

People (perhaps only people of a certain age) look at Lindsey's hair, and the forehead, and it triggers a kind of "where have I seen that look before?" thing.. and then you remember... "oh yeah, Art Garfunkel's hair was kinda like that once".

No one thinks they look alike now (!!) and clearly they didn't when they were the same age in the past... but it's almost like Lindsey-now could be the older version of Art-then....

(waiting for all the NO WAYs!) LOL
