this is basically a part 2 to that older thread i made about everyone's old bass pics. basically… i just want to see more of it!!! send in those old pictures of you gigging!! i got the idea for the name off of a suggestion someone made in that thread, so thanks for that lol. now, i have zero action shots, but i do still currently have hair (give me 15 more years and it'll start to go), so maybe someday when i get a gig i'll have a picture of it… somehow. i just want to see those pictures!
 
Don't care what color it comes in as long as it don't come loose.

Any hair day is a good hair day. Though I'm skipping grey and going straight to white...

This pic is 3 years old now, gone even whiter since...

used to be an "almost ginger" auburn reddish brown, especially in the beard, but it's all gone now...
 
I still have hair, it's just been in a crewcut for most of these last >35 years.
But here's one of my favorite pics of teenaged me, from when I had lots more hair:

Original B&W photo is from 1978, when I was ~17 years old. The colorization was done a year or two later by a friend who had access to MIT's Architectural Machinery Group, which was a loosely disguised Defense Department think-tank for nascent computer technology.
