Hairy Rockers in Amsterdam

Today in my ongoing series of photos from my travels: these hairy parody rockers who showed up in the back of a truck after one of the sessions at last year's Picnic conference in Amsterdam, all spandex and Cousin It wigs. Link

A far better way to stay anonymous than KISS's makeup. . . and really-- two lead guitarists, and a drummer with only a snare? I wish they weren't a parody, but serious. (check out the band "Nitro" for probably the closest a metal band came to self parody while still trying to be serious. Their 80's video for "Freight Train Comin" is on youtube and is hilarious-- biggest hair, most lead guitar gimmicks.)

I like that the singer's, erm, hair, has become snagged on the guitar. I looked at the pic and went "well wouldn't it get caught in the.. oh yeah, lookit that."
