Top 5 Ugliest Rockers

This list began today whilst lunching at Benjy's HD. They have their own music video system there, and we were presented with some nice rock music. I can't remember who we saw, but this conversation started. I will try to provide picks.

5. Bryan Adams - This guy, something happened to him between his really cool, blue jeans and white T-shirt 80's til now. His music sucks now too.










4. Mick Jones - This is the guy who started the Clash, then Big Audio Dynamite. He exemplifies the stereotype of poor dentistry in Britain.












3. Rick Ocasek - The Cars front man, not a pretty picture, and this guy married a model that was the Sports Illustrated top pick for many of my formative 80's years. By the way, does he not resemble Patty Smith, the punk rocker? I think so.












2. Shane MacGowan - He looks a little bit like an extra from the movie "Deliverance". He is the former front man for the Pouges. Not a pretty picture.











And now, the moment you have all been waiting for. The number one, ugliest rocker is...


1. Geddy Lee - This guy, without a doubt in my mind, is the King of Ugly in the world of rock. Sure, there is Lyle Lovett, but the fact that he was once married to Julia Roberts gives him amnesty from this list. So, I present, the leader of one of my favorite bands of all time, Geddy Lee.
























Honorable mentions go out to Bill Berry, former drummer for REM.
