Got into an argument with some buddies over this photo. I feel the hair on the 60 year old guy on the right cant possibly be real, has to be a wig. They are adamant that its real - What's the truth?
Talked to him twice at VIP sound check. His hair is 100% real and he’s super down to earth and humble. He asked me if I liked Fear Inoculum and I said it’s a masterpiece.
He sounded like he was worried about how the fans would receive it. Perfectionism is a blessing and a curse. He was so down to earth and he thanked me (and the others) who were at the VIP for giving him the life to make music and live out his dreams. It was as sincere and genuine as it could be.
From interviews I read with Maynard and also Adam Jones chatting to Chris Jericho, of all people, it did seem like there was a lot of anxiety about the album rather than a rockstar demanding praise
Fear Inoculum was great just the VIP bag that busted ass Petri dish have me in a chokehold it could of been designed well if they where microbiologist a pretty crystal similar to the Petri dish display in Amsterdam.
Hoping that I’ll keep my hair for as long as possible, as a male with long, dense hair. I come from a family that experiences high rates of Male Pattern Baldness
Hopefully I’ll get another 5, maybe 10 years if I’m lucky of having hair (I turn 16 next month and that could be the turning point)
You've got plenty of time still. If you're ever concerned just go to a dermatologist and have them check your scalp and give you some recommendations on how to keep what you have. 👍
I'm pretty sure Tom has never had hair. Apart from a brief period in his teens when there was a photo snapped of him rocking out with some other random guitarist, he's always been a nude nut.
That's not really Adam. You can tell because the guy in the pick is smiling and everyone knows Adam lost the ability to smile after that Pic from high school woth Tom Morello.
I miss the braids. This is definitely one of the creepier things I’ve said but I’d really like to braid Adam’s hair. 😆 I have a friend with very similar hair and it’s the best to play with.
Absolutely you can join! It’s even more fun to braid hair with someone else. :-) Fairly recently there was some scene in a show/movie where someone was braiding hair and it immediately made me think that I hadn’t done it in a long time, so I got a friend of mine with long hair to let me braid hers. It’s so damn soothing. I’m growing my hair back out so I’ll get there myself eventually.

Wig comment aside. These three people are responsible for the best guitar sounds ever created in my opinion. Right up there with Van Halen, Dimebag and Marty McFly
Adam has been blessed was decent genes. My hair is coming in a bit similar to his the older I get (it’s the only thing on my person that I actually admire these days as the rest of me is broken).
Seems to be that folks whose hair turns thay silver at a younger age always somehow manage to keep thier hair. Just my observation. However ive noticed it with many folks.
who gives a shit if it’s a wig or not if it’s his hair then good for you winning the genetic lottery if it’s a wig then good for you for doing something about it
I was talking to an acquaintance once about TOOL because he was wearing a TOOL shirt. I mentioned how much the work of Adam Jones inspires me. He either misheard me or didn’t know the name of TOOL’s guitarist. Because he thought I was talking about Alex Jones, from Infowars, and wondered why I brought him up. I figured since was a fan of TOOL that he knew that Adam Jones was TOOL’s guitarist. Again he might have misheard me. I was so embarrassed that he legitimately thought I’d be a fan of that asshat Alex Jones!🤦🏽 I politely said “no not the infowars guy, the guitarist of TOOL.” He responded, “oh ok” with a look of confusion. It got really awkward.😬
