Show of Hands : Should I Let My Beard Get Huge?
We'll be touring out west for almost a month and I was thinking about not trimming my beard at all. Infact I was thinking about establishing a no shaving policy for the whole band while we're on the road. But I leave it up to you. You vote. Should we grow them huge this tour? Yay or Nay?

ReplyDeleteyay! Beards are beautiful. and since you're with @loswhit, i guess bald is beautiful too...

ReplyDeleteA thousand times yes. And perhaps rock a mullet to match.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely yes.
ReplyDeleteYay, please!!
ReplyDeletehmm the mountain man look. I vote yay.

ReplyDeletelol, nay
ReplyDeleteI say yay. As long as its only for tour. Big beards can definitely go too far.
ReplyDeleteYay
ReplyDeletei say hell yes!
ReplyDeleteDon't shave. I'm 10-months into growing my yeard and it was a great decision.
ReplyDelete100% support for the beard. See Also: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neil_Fallon
ReplyDeleteShow of Hands : Should I Let My Beard Get Huge?
ReplyDeleteNo, you shouldnt. =)
Nah, none of you should shave.
ReplyDeleteyay
ReplyDeleteI'm always an advocate of beards, so yay.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely! That is what any real "wear their hearts on their sleeves" band would do... I really don't see an option here. Plus, I believe that you've already made up your mind to do it!
ReplyDeleteI vote yey! Do keep in mind, however, that as you get into summer, the beard may become a bit of a nuisance.
ReplyDeleteI say grow it but the trimming around the edges is what makes it look so much less like a homeless begger on the street type look.
ReplyDeleteDoesn't Shae have a ridiculously long head start? Still love the idea.
ReplyDeleteYes. Let the follicles leap for joy!
ReplyDeleteNay. I say you all go for GQ instead. Over-grown beards are becoming a bit too predictable!
ReplyDeletedo it!
ReplyDeleteGet some Warren Ellis into you
ReplyDeleteyes. yes you should.
ReplyDeleteyes
ReplyDeletereal men have beards. choose your own adventure John.
ReplyDeleteGo for it!
ReplyDeleteYay. I can't believe there would even be a question.
ReplyDeleteGrow it!
ReplyDeleteabsolutely!
ReplyDeletewhats the wife say? Nay big beard and checked shirt, you'd disappear in the crowd.
ReplyDeletedefinatly
ReplyDeletegrow!
ReplyDeleteum... yes.
ReplyDeleteYou and Shae could have matching beards... yay
ReplyDeleteYes. Absolutely. Grow 'em long so people will think your a ZZ Top cover band.
ReplyDeleteNo sir.
ReplyDeleteNo sir.
ReplyDelete....Grow for it
ReplyDeletethat was a horrible pun
but I'm really excited to see you on the 3rd
In the words of someone from Underoath - "Grow a beard and be somebody."
ReplyDeleteI vote YAY
I'd say even asking means you want to! Do it! I just wish Portland was closer to the end of the tour now
ReplyDeleteYou know the kind of dirty hippie Jesus loving folk that follow you sir! Something tells me you just want us all to say yay to convince your wife that you had to do it for the fans... Mmm?
ReplyDeleteHa, in any case. YAY! The Beard. A sensation I will never know, thus I always encourage my peers to embrace their manly privileges.
yay
ReplyDeleteI agree with my man josh cotterino. No shaving for any of you.
ReplyDeleteGrow it out!
ReplyDeletegrow bro
ReplyDeletewhy aye why.
ReplyDeleteyayyayyayayayayayayayayayay
ReplyDeleteDefinitely.
ReplyDeleteDo it brotha, yay!
ReplyDeletei vote a most definite yay!
ReplyDeleteat least shave the neck part. have some self-respect. and please- come back to san antonio.
ReplyDeleteLet' er Grow.....shave the head....Instead....
ReplyDeleteDo it.
ReplyDeleteyay
ReplyDeleteDO IT!
ReplyDeletei would if i could!
yes and come to TN so we can see... the chattanoogapart, or even asheville nc, ill drive.
ReplyDeleteGo rugged for the road.
ReplyDeleteIt's been hard for me to find faithful music that I can call a work of art. Your blog has been helpful. Please keep blogging. It is much appreciated.
P.S.
You've recently been added to my list of likes. I am impatiently awaiting the release of "The Medicine."
for sure, man.
ReplyDeletei heard a rumour you were supposed to play in eastern wa but i don't see it on your tour schedule, which is a total bummer. me and a couple of like minded dudes are going to be in portland the day you're playing there, but we're seeing mumford & sons that night. if you need a guide to the city that day, give me a shout. it'd be our pleasure to show you some western hospitality.
HECK NO. i mean, you can, but i wouldn't make everyone do it...unless you want my hubs to look like a hispanic teenager. please and thank you.
ReplyDeleteThis can be your "I Walk the Line" moment. Grow the beard for those of us that can't. Wear the beard for those who got shorted by the genetic stick. Who lack a great mustache rich and thick.
ReplyDeleteSo, yes, my vote is let it grow.
consider it from this side. If you grow a gnarly beard I think you'd be protecting yourself on the road from temptation. All the girls would be pretty much turned off by the Logger look. Unless you played in mountain towns.
ReplyDeleteGrow vote here!
ReplyDeleteDefinite yes for beards.
ReplyDeleteYes to keep the beard.
ReplyDeleteYAY!
ReplyDeleteLeft IT GROW !
ReplyDeleteGROW BIG OR GO HOME!!

ReplyDeleteaye!
ReplyDeletei took a "no-shave vow" for my wife's entire pregnancy. yes, 9 months... no trimming even. it was crazy. crazy-awesome.
YES
ReplyDeleteBig Beards are always the best policy. I am a firm believer in the great bearded holidays like No Shave November, Don't Shave December, Just Grow A Beard January (sometimes called JaBEARDjewary), Furry February, and Manly March.
ReplyDeleteAnd for the real men there is always THE YEAR OF BEARD. Yes, 365 days committed to growing your beard. I have heard legends of men being able to cut down redwoods with one swing of an ax and eat entire mountains of pancakes.
....plus Old Testament law says DO NOT trim the corners of your beard. No wonder why the Psalmist said he loved the laws of God!
two hands held high in approval!
ReplyDeletehuge.
ReplyDeleteYAY
ReplyDeleteyay!
ReplyDeleteeveryone looks better with facial hair.
