Bassists with Beards Club

I'll play:

I apologize, my bearded brothers. I have fallen off the wagon. I just could not stand the itch of my beard under my motorcycle helmet any longer! It was either the motorcycle...or the beard.

:(

Come fall when I stop riding as much, I will once again reclaim my furry face.
 
My last name is Beard. Boom.


That was a 'stage name' of sorts for me in a band I was in back in the late 80s with another guys named 'Jim'. I was known as 'Jim Beard' to cut down on the confusion :)

as for an update to the thread... I shaved my epic beard down to a short goatee a while back due to an abscessed tooth. It has since been taken care of and my beard is back...
