Of the bunch (and except for a few wrinkles), Mick, Ron, Patti, Robert and Iggy look the same. Keith looks like a scraggly version of his old self but I guess this is how 69 looks.
The others either got a little chubby, overweight or had plastic surgery. |

When is the early picture of Keith from? Late '60s/early '70s? The contrast would be a little greater if an earlier picture was used:

True. The mid-'70s photo of Keith is more aligned with how he looks now. |

I'm not totally sure of the point of this.
People do get old, and I think it's great most of them are still performing despite the wrinkles |

I think I get your point. If they stay natural they are mocked for looking old but if they get plastic surgery they are mocked for trying to look young. |

But that picture of Steve Perry actually does crack me up ![lol](/i/s/icon_lol.gif) |

That 1975-76 (?) period where he had the beard was weird. I forget when he grew his beard so correct me if I'm wrong here. ![lol](/i/s/icon_lol.gif) |

What's the point of any post on this forum?
Many have nothing to do with music anyway. ![biggrin](/i/s/icon_biggrin.gif)
They're just interesting photos.
The essence of the "Then" photo seems to be maintained in the "Now" photo.
Especially the eyes.

and the noses, interesting to see the noses morph. Still makes me angry that Bowie is pretty much blind in his right eye, by some ass-hole fan throwing something on stage.
No fair pic of Mic - anybody can make a face like that. He actually looks great in real life. |

^^^ LOL yeah I was going to post the curly head Clapton picture, but I'd never seen the other one, so decided to post it.
I guess I am not keeping to the theme of pictures in relatively similar poses. |
