Lindsey Buckingham with Limited* Autographed Booklet

[wondergirl9847]

Thanks for posting this, Mac Man! I like the pic...it looks a little like a painting to me. Also, the blurriness is the theme for this album, isn't it? LOL

As for the pose..."I never change....I never will." In both of those pics...his sleeves are rolled up to the elbow. Heh.

I like the pic too! His clothes are perfect and he is just being himself.

Cool Hand Luke looked happy. Arrogant. THIS Lindsey pic looks defeated. Washed up. Done.

If he was going for the Cool Hand Luke look, he should have used this:

(Gift of Screws)



(I tried to superimpose Lindsey's head on Luke's body, but it just wasn't giving the right effect...)

I think that is a pose. Or at least I hope it is. I really don't think that's him being natural.

Well, he certainly isn't being fake...that is what Lindsey looks like!

I think the album cover shot and this one are designed -- even the way the camera is angled and focused -- is designed to make him look -- not good. They went out of their way to create a certain effect. I could take an unposed picture of Lindsey with a cheap polaroid camera and no special lighting and his eyes would be alive -- they wouldn't be dull and rheumy. I think they were aiming for that look deliberately. That's why I feel it is fake, just a different kind of fake than the "glamour" shots try to attain.

I am the Gary Busey of Rock and Roll.

That just made my day.

On the bright side: at least he's wearing a new shirt!

It's got buttons and everything. I hope he wears that one to the parole hearing.

That's what I thought! I was like, "yay, he's wearing BLUE!" I'm easy to please, I guess. And no matter what, his eyes are always that wonderful color.

I agree with Michele.
It has nothing to do with aging. I didn't see the lines or any drooping and--frankly--don't give a rat's fanny over them. He's nearing 60, he's supposed to have lines. I like that he looks like a REAL guy, as opposed to the plastic Hollywood ones.

But, he's hawking an album. Yeah, I get that he's a tortured, serious artist. But, we get all that in his songs. And all his songs, nowadays, are not even like that. Occasionally, he drops hints that he is (gasp!) happy! So, why sell an album using a picture that looks like he escaped from Riker's Island?

So, yeah. Put out a picture like that, and we have free license, IMO, to pick it apart, on the basis of what's presented in the picture. I don't necessarily think we need to berate his gray hair or whatnot. That is what it is. But the dour expression is a choice.

I ordered it. \o/ I hope it isn't pre-autographed or whatever fancy thing they do.
