James Labrie?

[Scrub206]

Best poll is best. ive been watching a lot of older videos and more recently, Score. And JLB looks much more badass with out the Goatee. Maybe im just associating his hairless face to the phenomenal singing on Score and past performances. But im just curious which you guys like better. 

EDIT: .. man i WOULD pick the best picture of JLB with his goatee... 

[Jaffa]

I think he looks sort of holy without the facial hair.  Look at that first picture and tell me a halo wouldn't complete it. 

[TheGreatPretender]

I think he looked his best around Systematic Chaos. When he had the thin goatee and his hair was straightened. Totally badass. Minus the puckering:

[SeRoX]

I don't care goatee. All I want is his long hair back!

[SystematicThought]

Opposite of SeRoX. I like short hair and goatee JLB. Right around the start of the September US tour

[FlyingBIZKIT]

When he was younger, no facial hair and his long hair made him badass.


Now that he is older, goatee and long hair is badass 

[Scrub206]

He does look badass with his goatee, dont get me wrong.. but hes beautiful with out the goatee 

[SystematicThought]

We should also discuss JLB's fascination with graphic tee's

[FlyingBIZKIT]

James Labrie would be badass even if he tried to look like Rudess.

ZYDAR WHERE ARE YOU?

He is beautiful with and without

Maybe this is just my way of justifying the fact that James cut his hair, but I think his hair was at least long-ish during the start of the September US tour! Certainly not short though

No you're right, it wasn't nearly as bad as it was back in January 2011.

Yusss, exactly this.

[Mladen]

With goatee, easily. I think his showmanship improved immensely since he's grown the beard, and if he ever decided to shave it, that just wouldn't be it for me anymore, I seriously couldn't take him seriously. 

[wolfking]

I'd like to see labrie with a full beard.

[obscure]

goatee looks good!

also

[DebraKadabra]

Really, I've always thought he looked quite awesome.  Buuuuuut... the facial hair just does it.

[MondayMorningLunatic]

Has anyone noticed that he sings better without the goatee?

[obscure]

 

[Nekov]

Without.

[Orbert]

He has long, full, beautiful hair of which I am insanely jealous, but to me that makes him look like Fabio or some kind of male model.  The kind of guy that insecure men call "gay" even though there's no homosexuality even hinted at; it's because they know that the girls love that shit and they wish they had awesome hair like that, too.  And yeah, because it looks kinda gay.

But... add facial hair and you have a serious fucking badass look.  Come on, folks, it's between "fucking badass" and "pretty boy".

[iamtheeviltwin]

As a member of the Goatee wearing mirror universe I have to vote for the Evil Labrie.

[Scrub206]

the only way i could see JLB pulling off somewhat of a full beard is if it was shapped perfectly to line his jaw. like that thin line type deal.

[Phoenix87x]

If it was still 1991 then I would say no Goatee, but as of today I think he looks better with the Goatee.

[TAC]

I don't care goatee. All I want is his long hair back!

I agree. Did he have a facelift??

[robwebster]

Just in case anyone's wondering, here's how everyone looks with goatees. Except Jordan Rudess, because his beard's about as goaty as you can get. I've also thickened John Myung's eyebrows, so he doesn't look ridiculous.



"So what did you do today, Rob?"
"Oh, you know, a bit of this, a bit of that, mooched about on Facebook for a bit, photoshopped beards onto the clean shaven members of Dream Theater, had lunch..."

What in tarnation?

Yes, I guess. He had nose surgery.

Is that a touch of "Portnoy blue" in JM's ? 

[robwebster]

I thought it'd be up his street.
