I was expecting something embarrassing like one of those pink and pointy guitars. Like this Vandenberg:
 

That's the guitar the rhythm guitar guy in one of my old bands used to play - except his was black. 1990. Never new it was a Peavey though. Had not seen one since...

I wish I had my one and only rock picture still.  I tried and tried and tried to get my hair to look right but it usually just got weird waves in it as it got close to passing my shoulders.  I had my mom's hair dresser straighten it and tease it for that one big gig I was in at the Bacchanal in San Diego (12/9/84), and the picture showed me holding a custom black flying-V (the one belonging to the drummer) in front of a Marshall full-stack.  I'm wearing black leather pants with a black leather-ish shirt with a horizontal yellow zig-zag pattern (kind of an inverted Charlie Brown shirt) that opens down the front.  Add a pair of s***-kicker black boots and there you go!
 
Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure that this pic was lost when ONE box was apparently left on the moving truck when I moved to the Pacific Northwest.  Naturally, it was one of the boxes filled with irreplaceable stuff like old pictures, old Martial Arts belts and trophies, old darting plaques and magazines and old skating trophies and medals...  I can't believe someone probably thought "What is all this junk?" and just threw it away instead of trying to figure out how to get it back to me (heck, my name was on enough of the stuff!).  Still unhappy about that... 

Old darting plaques?
 
The Juan where you beat that Juan guy?

At least you still have some of that hair.  Like James, mine grew out rather than long--until I started looking like Bozo the Clown.  

Plaques were from league (been playing for over 30 years).  Tournaments (where I beat that Juan guy) rarely gave plaques or trophies, just money and points (national and, on two events, world points).
 
(We now return you to your regularly scheduled topic about Randy's hair.  )

Hey Randy , you look good for back then ….
Yep, that was the look you had to have back in them days ..
what happened ?  just kidding 
 
Kenny

Yeah, both Randy and Rain are on my list of those who, annoyingly, always seem to have the right look for any time (from my jealous point of view  ).  You know what they say, some of us just have a face for radio... 

Yeah, what DID happen since?  And unlike Kenny I ain't kidding...
 
Those wristbands really are cool but only if you had the matching leg-warmers.
 
I've probably got some worse nearly as bad stuff in the archive, but I don't have the inclination to look, nor a sibling that would seek to destroy me in such a manner as publishing such material to the internet*.
 
(* that's what injunctions are for!)

How do you know he's not wearing the matching leg-warmers Jon?

When I first saw my sister had posted this picture with the caption "Anyone know this 80's rocker" I was kinda shocked. I hadn't seen this particular photo in over 25 years. Then as the day went on and I saw people responding on FB that I hadn't seen or heard from or barely remembered, it brought back some memories I hadn't had in many years. Yeah, the picture gives me a good laugh at how we musicians dressed back in the early to mid 80's. And yes JB, I had the leg-warmers, but I only wore them while doing the Jane Fonda workout. Never on stage. As you can plainly see, I had style.
