Everyone's gotta be thinking this, so I'll let it out. We're all jealous of the guy. So there should be a contest for another Baldy. I would even go by Hairy, just to get on the tour. And there's plenty of reasons it should be me, there's so much contrast, like Baldy's from NY, I'm from Ohio, he's bald, I have hair, he's older, I'm young... There'd be something everyone can connect to having two writeups from two different perspectives.  And if it comes to money, like "We already have Baldy, we can't afford to take another person," he's been there two years, seen all the concerts, hung out with the guys, I haven't seen one concert, haven't met them... And I'm somewhat funny. So if there's ever any thought at all towards having a second person come along with Alice, Creep should be first in line, just throwing that out there...

  Baldy has been with the guys for MANY MANY years so there's a long history there hon ;)  I'll keep cheering you on though and wishing you luck negative creep

The criteria for being a Baldy is to be able to take abuse with grace & as much dignity as you can muster, without a whimper back to the guys.....not to mention surviving the wetness factor from Mike's side of the stage......having a head that picks can stick to.....and those blurry 7 out of 11 pix that don't quite turn out as they should have......

 It takes a special person to be a Baldy.....

Of course, but we can all dream and amuse ourselves with the hypothetical. ;-)

I bet the reason they like him is exactly because he has no hair. That's one less person to fight over the blow dryer with. :P

You know that "Jerry's future wife" chick would take you out at the knees to be first in line, Creep! If the thought of being stuck on a bus with the same people for long periods of time didn't make me claustrophobic, I'd be right there with you fighting her off though. All the guys in the band are so damn likeable. I mean, who do you know that wouldn't dig their personalities? No one!

I have been lucky enough to see 4 shows in the last year or so, but I couldn't possibly get sick of seeing them play every night. And I'm sure my write-ups could rival the Baldy's in amusement factor. ;-)

And just to make myself sound like "Jerry's future wife" (hehehe) I'd provide my services as a personal trainer every day too. That's something the Baldy can't offer! Don't they say that as rock stars get older they have to start bringing their nutritionists and trainers on the road with them instead of their dealers? Anyway, enough silliness for me!

I wonder if these people realize what a bus smells like? And having to live on one for a couple of months with a bunch of people in such a small space (hpicks figured that one out LOL)...... ~ Baldy needs an award, not to mention a pay raise

Y'all are cracking me up!

Btw, speaking of "less than desirable" conditions that come with living on a bus, I asked Baldy if he'd bonked his head lately   and he said that unfortunately YES, he had just recently got another knot on his noggin....

Aww, poor Baldy.

They should have little "Baldies" on the next tour.  One board member from each city wins the task of documenting and reviewing the show that the band plays, in that city.  Kind of a like a one-on-one competition between Baldy and Fan, including underexposed photos with ill compositions.  A competition.  Board votes on who made the better review/photos.  Some prizes, maybe.  "The Fan v The Baldy."  My imagination is running wild.  A true test of the Baldy's high caliber photography, vocabulary and comedy skills.

Now that is a great idea. Ya i've been wondering why there have't been any more contests. but the tour is almost over. i hope they take a little rest and be back out in a month or two. Ok i've been wondering this. Hchick are you the woman who waited with me near the back stage door at the mansfield mass show? Your pick looks familiar but i'm not quite sure that is you. i had the layne tribute shirt on and i was very drunk being held up by the wall. LOL> untill jerry came out of course and you helped me to get it signed. was that you?

That is a great idea. We did give away a bunch of concert tickets to subscribers but maybe on the next tour we can work out some kind of contest like the one Fossil describes. Of course, we'd have to run it past the Baldy first, I don't want him to feel like his job is at risk.
