Be absolutely stunned by Jimmy Page??? 😍 Don't even get me started on Robert Plant. Ovaries explode

Scott Gorham from Thin Lizzy...yes!...there's a man who still looks hot as !
Tommy Bolin and Bret Michaels also gorgeous

[quote MrsVogon]@LadyfromtheBelleEpoque agree about David Byrne. I still fancy him!!

For me, it's Bowie all the way. He was old enough to be my dad, but I always thought he was beautiful throughout his years.[/quote]
I didn't realise what a huge influence Bowie was on my taste in men until relatively recently. I've always fancied tall, skinny, effeminate men with those overlapping incisors. Quite niche really.

I disagree OP but only because he looks like my sister's partner who I don't like.

The reason I find Led Zepplin attractive is because of their sheer swaggering arrogance on stage. When they were playing in the early days they were gods. If you watch old footage of them, the sexuality they exude, especially Robert Plant, is incredible. Jimmy Page plays a sexy guitar though; gives me a rush every time.

I also agree about Syd Barrett. Apparently, he used to live in a shared house where they dosed his tea with LSD without him knowing. It triggered severe mental health issues.

Another one of my faves is a young Robert Smith.

I disagree with whomever said Bob Dylan looks like a frog. He was gorgeous in his younger days.

Fantastic thread, so many memories. My best Led Zep story is this. My ex-boyfriends mate was in the Brighton Uni student union back in the day and responsible for booking the bands to play. Someone said ' what about this band Led Zep, they're supposed to be good '. Mate says nah, never heard of them. Following year album comes out, they go massive, mate hangs head in shame.

Nowadays it's got to be the God that is Dave Grohl for me.

@WutheringShites86

If you want the gorgeous musicians without the side of misogyny then the early 90s grunge frontmen is where it's at.

Check out Eddie Vedder with Pearl Jam 1992 mtv unplugged - you're welcome Grin

You are so right about Eddie Vedder. Sends me all misty eyed.

The other picture is a young Bob Dylan.

Agree about Robert smith - I couldn’t believe it when I saw younger photos of him - such a shame he covered his beauty with all that slap!

OMG just caught the end of Graham Naughton and Dave Grohl is on next week. Might have to watch on my own so that I can wallow.

poppyzbrite4 · 29/01/2021 23:48

Can't believe no one has mentioned Jon Bon Jovi or Axl Rose.

Why can nobody spell Gilmour's name correctly?!

BeautifulStar · 29/01/2021 23:52

I did Hotzenplotz!

Axl rose and Bon jovi don’t do it for me - I always thought they looked a bit ‘fake rocker’ - too coiffured. I prefer my rockers a bit smelly looking and dark. I’ve never fancied men with blonde highlights!

That's a good point, well made. They were also not my cup of tea at the time as I was into rock/indie/goth/grunge but they are good looking fellas and had a lot of female adoration. That's why I'm surprised they haven't been mentioned.

Dave Grohl on Graham Norton next week??????? Oooohh
Will also watch by myself as the family will be ribbing me if they catch me

Thanks @ Need Wine Now

Hailtomyteeth · 30/01/2021 11:19

Is he? Oooh. I like him sweaty though. He won't be sweaty on Graham Norton's show.

Scout2016 · 30/01/2021 11:31

Bon Jovi and Axl have both bern mentioned. The I spoke of the puzzlement of fancying a man in white jeans (Axl). Likewise Kurt in his cardigan.
Kurt over Eddie any day, partly because the music does nothing much for me. Eddie was just good looking, nothing interesting about his face for me.

Mike Oldfield Ommadawn... I own this album on vinyl and it still gives me the galloping fanjos

How could a man as good looking as that produce the shite that was Moonlight Shadow (Shadow)?

Nope, not for me. He’s all yours @LadyfromtheBelleEpoque.

Good @VinylDetective. viva la difference Smile

But seriously, how could you not?...

VinylDetective · 30/01/2021 13:49

He just doesn’t do it for me. It’s not rational, is it? I always had a penchant for pretty men, hence my absolute adoration of Marc Bolan.
