97flatcars Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Surprised by the back of Jeff's head.I am going out on a limb here and really risking looking foolish but it could be that Jeff Tweedy is balding. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Magnetized Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 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.

u2roolz Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 How would you guys know how much hair Jeff has d........oh....ok...you meant his forehead..... So I guess after 16 months of no album we discuss hair. Next month let's discuss his toenails. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

embiggen Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 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? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

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!

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

Albert Tatlock Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Chinese Apple Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 No! Say it isn't so. Jeff Tweedy's hair was THE main reason I got into Wilco. I didn't see this Letterman clip. Are we absolutely sure it wasn't just bad lighting? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
