I think Michelle meant the day he cut off the fro and facial hair, which would be spring of '78 sometime I would think.

You're right. That's what I meant. I will celebrate that date for ever more. Also, if Carol is telling the truth about subtly convincing Lindsey to go all the way and get rid of the facial hair too, after he cut the scalp hair himself, then I guess I owe her a debt as well.

But thank you Peter. I wanted to make sure I got the date for the pictures right too. You know what a mess the concert information is. I would have made a mistake.

Those insanely poor-quality pictures Carol Ann has in that book of hers of Lindsey with the cropped hair and facial hair are hot to me. He reminds me of a dark-haired (young) Don Johnson- think early Miami Vice, when he'd do the scruff and the Ray Bans and look really hard ass. Lindsey had that same look (or he could have just been stoned), and it was really sexy. The thing that brings out his beauty with the Tusk hair is the fact you can see his eyes. Honestly, no matter how old and gray he gets no one can deny the singular allure of his eyes. They're so blue and deep.

That's true. And I never got to see Lindsey in concert before his hair cut, so I can't really compare firsthand. So many of the early photos of him are in black and white, so it's hard for his eyes to redeem his look in those for me. They aren't a focal point in black and white photos, the way they surely were in person. If I'd been able to see them standing out so brightly, maybe the flea-ridden big hair wouldn't have detracted.

Love them. Kudos to Trevor for not forgetting John McVie.
