ambient Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 [quote name='Cosmo Valdemar' timestamp='1422631828' post='2674923'] I don't believe you. [/quote] It's totally true. I'm just not at all interested in rock music, particularly that from years ago. My influences when taking up playing bass were guys like Jaco, using bass in a melodic way. Nowadays it's mostly either classical or experimental music that I listen to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosmo Valdemar Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 My beard is starting to turn grey. When examined closely. I'm quite proud, but have this misguided idea that I'll end up looking as sophisticated as Jon Lord. A drunken Santa Claus is more accurate.

[/quote] Either dye it or get rid of it. Nothing makes you look older than a grey beard. Weirdly, my beard has gone grey but my hair has not, prompting people to think that 1) I dye my hair (which I don't) and 2) I dye my hair but can't be bothered to dye my beard as well, like some sort of feckless tramp that very probably smells of pee and is no doubt a paedophile.

paul h Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 My beard is getting pretty grey. And it's a rubbish, patchy beard too. I'm such a disappointment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UglyDog Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 That Just For Men stuff is pretty good for facial hair and gives good results, however it keeps on working for a while even after you wash it off. So don't leave it on for longer than 2 or 3 mins or it goes really really dark and can look very silly. Yes, this is the voice of experience Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
