Jeff's hair--or lack thereof


Recommended Posts

What's up with the bald spot on the top of Tweedy's head? Just saw the Letterman and Colbert Mavis Staples video. Surprised by the back of Jeff's head.

 

A bald spot surprises you?

I am going out on a limb here and really risking looking foolish but it could be that Jeff Tweedy is balding.

Yes, Jeff's usually impeccably styled coif was a bit off. Perhaps he needs some advice from his fans . . .

 

Post: “But right now, I’d like to get this out of the way: Jeff Tweedy’s hair looks ridiculous [on The Tonight Show]. I don’t know if it’s thinning, or if he’s teasing it, or both, but it really needs to stop. And as a person who years ago may or may not have purchased a pair of shoes because he saw Tweedy wearing them, I only bring this up because I care.” Jeff Tweedy: I agree 100 percent. I have no idea what to do with my hair. I wish I did. If this person really cared, they would have contacted me in a forum other than a national magazine to maybe suggest some product, but I don’t think that person really cares. I think they’re just being funny, and I agree. I wish I had an idea.

 

The A.V. Club: Well, you can turn to the Internet.

 

JT: It’s a sign that I’m old, I guess, that that’s not my first thought, but it should be my first thought. If there’s any problem, I should be able to solve it by going to the Internet. Well, that’s always been my M.O.: to distract people from my hair by getting them to look at my feet. So there’s a guy working at L Magazine that is wearing clown shoes.

 

 

If you haven't read the entire interview, it's one of the best ever--from 2009: http://www.avclub.co...you-thin,33935/

thanks for sharing. this jt quote is great (even better pulled out of context): "What the fuck, man? Just like it. Just shut up and like it."

 

also enjoyed this gem:

AVC: You just wait until Wilco Rock Band comes out.

JT: Yeah, that would sell tens of copies.

It sucks when we see evidence of our own advancing age in the appearances of others.

yeah, why do we care so much about his hair? sex appeal? will he no longer be sexy if he loses his hair? huh? HUH?

 

I always liked that bird's nest on his head, so I will miss it if it goes away, but I imagine I'll adjust. It'll take more than balding to rob Jeff of his extreme sexiness!:hitit

Buddy...I don't need to see my advancing age in the appearance of others. The mirror works JUST fine.

 

(I don't mind or care that Mr. Tweedy has a bald spot...Vanity usually signifies a person of little character and of little merit)

You were looking for a reason to post a smurf...and I delivered it up on a platter. Nice

A glimpse into the future.

Observant readers will note that Pat was forced out of the band. His thatch was just too persistently abundant to fit the new image. He was destined to spend the rest of his reclusive life indoors after developing a terrible aversion to lamp posts and crippling fear of missing manhole covers. This is his last known appearance in public.
