Great header, Voodoo!

I love 1990's Keith, especially when his hair was salt-n-pepper.

Beautiful header, Voo! I liked the salt & pepper look too, SV. Here are a couple I found online - don't know the credits.

what must it be like to have millions of idiots like us running around documenting pictures and set lists and the like and talking about everying you did in pittsburg in 1999 and what your hair looks like on said date?

And to think it's been that way for these guys for well over 40 years.

You an't help but like those late-1990's Keith photos - he really had a good look going on, on the BTB and No Security tours.

What also strikes me, is how youthful he looks in comparison to now. I know it was 10 years ago, but Jagger, Ronnie and Charlie haven't aged too much imo.

it amazes me how he can play guitar at night wearing dark glasses. how does he see the frets?

Stage lighting?

I'd imagine its a bit trickier to play it with his eyes closed.

He does look damn badass. He should bring back the leopard cape and shades look. And actually, guitarists don't really need to use their eyes much to play. Once you've learned the scales, licks, and chords, muscle memory takes over.

Can't every have too many pics of suave Keith or Keith the Riffmaster....

Aside from the '69 tour the best look for keith WAS the '98 / '99 tour that lepoard print coat and sunglasses WERE THE BOMB. Wasn't it the last tour that keef had a full head of hair exposed?
