, reminds me of my high-school pics.

You got some more to offer?

 

Ronald

 

Nice, keep them coming.

 

Dr. Brian

 

Slash

 

Looks like he was already a pretty cool kid.

 

Didn't change that much...just add the hat et...voilà!

 

Ian Gillan...wait, is he a "heavy metal" rocker?

 

Sir Richard of Blackmore

 

He counts in my book. Heavy or Hard.

 

He hasn't changed at all, just put on a wig.

How can a photo of a young pre-Crue Tommy Lee be posted and NOT have it be this one:

 

David Coverdale, front and centre (and most of the left and right).

 

Ian Paice in the dusky pink shirt with arms folded to the far right. (And Rod Evans, of course in the Purple shirt)

 

There's more like this over at the Metalsludge.tv site - they have an ongoing feature called "Exposed!" that runs these sorts of pix (as well as the reverse - like pix of the guys in Weezer back when they were in hair bands).

 

Frank Zappa in 1963.

Nothing like he would look a few years later.
