"Rekindle" implies it had been abandoned at some point. I've never seen
him different, and isn't it a kind of trademark? I can't imagine a crew
cut.

Is that the phase where he had no mustache, just a goatee? Or wait,
that's the Time look. The Xanadu album picture was good. I thought the
Time-era goatee was ridiculous, but we may all have our own opinions. =)

He needs a haircut. Definitely.

Goatee without a corresponding mustache = worse than the 'fro? I dunno, both
are pretty bad.

What haircut? All Jeff has to do is put on another wig. To Steve and all
my fellow Jeff-only fans I apologiz(s)e for said statement but my
hair-stylist ex-girlfriend pointed out to me via Afterglow booklet and
album covers that Jeff has had more hairstyles than Scranton has
potholes and if anybody used as much styling product as he did then by
rights he should be as bald as Al Gore and Tony Blair's collective lies.
Her beauty school inducted Kelly and Jeff into the Before And After hall
of fame. Her instructer even says that Jeff used to be called "Mr.
Hairstyle of the Month" My ex says Jeff wears wigs and I'm deathly
afraid I'll have to agree. But there's no shame for a man to wear wigs.
Sean Connery does it, Burt Reynolds does it, Patrick Troughton and Jon
Pertwee ( both late of Doctor Who) did it and William Shatner does it,
so why can't Jeff or even Kelly for that matter, hell, I'm even gonna do
it cos' of the damage the perming solution did to my hair on account of
when I was in high school my dad used to make me get a perm every 2
bloody months (he secretly thought I looked like Shemp Howard with a pig
nose and double chin). IMHO, the only 2 guys in ELO that had their own
hair were Mik and Bev. The BOP CD sleeve was sad because you had Jeff
who kinda looked like Alfalfa in the old farts home, Rick Tandy looked
like a gaunt 2-legged potato and Bev looked like Lil' Abner at the horse
races', In 1973 Mik looked like a French biker-pirate. Today, he looks
like a Hungarian street cleaner.

"You declared you were just 3 inches taller, you only became what we
made you. Thought you were James Dean with destiny calling, you only
earned what we gave you. You tried to walk on the trail we were
sprawling, now you know that we framed you".

I'm glad to see you still have a sense of humo(u)r Dave, considering you
snipped out the main part, all of what was snipped is probably true cos
if someone were to ask you to do a mental visualiz(s)ation of a
post-pubescient Alfalfa playing Captain Video, all one has to do is
conjure up the Balance Of Power CD photo of Jeff and everythin would
fall into place cos' the BOP style looks like a hairy helmet. And if
someone wanted a visualiz(s)ation of an anorexic Mr. Potato Head, look
no further than the BOP pic of Rick Tandy. Now I'm gonna stray off topic
cos someone got a leeeetle peeeeesed at my comment towards Al "Not My
Pal" Gore his whining mate Joe "Big Bird is the Antichrist and Freedom
is a Cardinal Sin" Lie(and he does it like no other)berman. G'd pair of
retards, messed up the American Presidential election with a capital F.
Gore tells Florida Chief Justice Muttley Sharples Hardybarton "Get down
on your knees and close your eyes whilst we go out into the public and
buy some votes"

the 'got my mind set on you' film clip
