I was actually super stressed about this - I was just watching some videos from last nights show. Nothing was up close, but I could make out a fro-less guy behind a t-bird and my first thought was that something happened and Justin was off the tour...

Thank God for this picture update and clarifying.

Aaaaw. I was showing a friend the NIN practice vids the other day and he said "Man, the bassist has an awesome fro." This is a kid who always talks about how guitar solos are awesome and he didn't once mention the guitars. Just the fro.

I agree with Skulletwhip - do you notice any effect on your tone?? Must've been too hot in NZ...

Heheh.

You guys haven't known me long enough.

I do this every 2-3 years like clockwork. It ain't no thing. Grows back, and I need some relief from the heat under these lights in NIN shows. No other reason. Believe me, my band was just as shocked yesterday when they saw me.

You look a bit like a young Adam Sandler.

The short hair works for you, bro. The fro's cool but the short hair makes you look more...I don't know...Nine Inch Nails-y, I guess...I know the fro's your trademark, but the short hair's a good look for you, too. Not that I'm into how guys look, mind you

No one's accusing you of anything, what's up with the defensive stand?

The short hair looks good. Besides you can be ready in a split second. I can't believe this tour keeps going and going, and going. The memories you will behold! Peace out.
