since someone has broken the boy band seal: really, this thread could be renamed "photos of the spice girls"

Eyeball Kicks, Wednesday, 13 November 2013 09:42 (twelve years ago)

LOL, either throwing a massive strop or Syd Barrett's given her some of his stash

from http://dangerousminds.net/comments/the_cake_a_real_life_beyond_the_valley_of_the_dolls

Dressed in tailored velvet trouser suits trimmed with lace, the girls emerged to the opening strains of You Can Have Him from within a giant Dali-esque revolving birthday cake, formed from melted struts and decorated with flaming green candles. While Barbara and Eleanor skated, dipped and weaved to the rhythm, Jeanette stood stock still to their left, looking detached and aloof, holding her microphone down by her waist. When she did finally raise it to her mouth, she purposefully lip-synched the words rather than sing them.

Everyone assumed it was just part of their shtick. ‘Yeah, that was her gimmick,’ agrees Rodney Bingenheimer. Barbara recalls Greene and Stone also saying, ‘Yeah, it’s different. Keep it!’

But Chelsea thinks there was another reason. ‘Everybody said, “Why does she just stand there?’ Most of the time Greene and Stone would have her mic turned off because she couldn’t sing R&B. She felt left out. I didn’t notice that was happening because I was overpowered by Charlie Greene.’

Sorry, this is the smallest image i could find. I love the 80s new waver hanging out w these hippies.

I love this one, it's also sort of sad: It was taken somewhere in between 1967 and 1968 before Syd went full crazy and Gilmour became a permanent member of Pink Floyd. You can almost see Syd slowly drifting away into space.

Also extra points for Waters not playing along but in a completely different stance and looking in the opposite way. Future vs past I guess.

Forgot about this one:

Paul & Linda: "Hey everybody, let's all do goofy faces!"
Denny: "Is my face moving? I'm too stoned to tell."
Jimmy: "I guess I could pull my slightly-annoyed-Jackson-Browne face."
Joe: "After this tour, I am outta here."

I wonder if there's a deeper joke in the Beatles pic besides Lennon showing up with a sprig instead of a spring.

^The dude second from right is just not thrilled

RAP GAME SHANI DAVIS (Raymond Cummings), Monday, 22 June 2015 22:14 (ten years ago)

ha, Jon Moss always looked like that in group photos

http://www.theblitzkids.com/files/ccfoundryphotoarchive0e.jpg

soref, Monday, 22 June 2015 22:33 (ten years ago)

otm, moss is culture club's charlie watts in that regard

difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Monday, 22 June 2015 22:48 (ten years ago)

It's rare for old-ish groups not to look awkard/weird/sad in pics, but that Culture Club one is great. As soref points out, the Jon Moss scowl is eternal, and the others look completely alive.

The New Order one is typical: stiff, lifeless blokes in shades (only Gillian looking awake).

Eyeball Kicks, Monday, 22 June 2015 22:54 (ten years ago)

Is that a new-new CC photo? George looks great

back once again with the panel behaviour (sic), Monday, 22 June 2015 23:18 (ten years ago)

I was just about to post that! I've had a huge affection for him since I read his autobiography and it warms me to see him looking so well.

from batman to balloon dog (carl agatha), Tuesday, 23 June 2015 00:41 (ten years ago)

yeah, that CC pic is from last year.

RAP GAME SHANI DAVIS (Raymond Cummings), Tuesday, 23 June 2015 00:50 (ten years ago)

Jon Moss may scowl(ish) in photos, but he mugs like crazy in videos.
