In the spirit of Throwback Thursday, which seems to be becoming a "thing" on the net, here's a couple of pics from my band geek days 30 years ago. Not quite a longhair, but this was as close as I could get at the time.

Hey there Mr. Frodo,
I love old pics like this! I've never heard of "ThrowbackThursdays", though.
One of these days I need to scan some of my old pics of myself from 30 or more years ago as well... My hair was also approximately the same length and style back then as you have in your pics here, although I was never in a band -- during the late 1970s, I was a geek who was interested in learning how to Jitterbug dance instead (LOL)!
Always great to hear from you, Mr. Frodo!!

You were looking good back then! I would have been jealous of that
hair at that time.
Not a bad effort for those times whilst still at school
30 years ago would be 1983 and my hair was much longer than
your hair. I was also in college at the time and was the one
bringing in rock bands to our college. By 1983 I had long hair
for 19 years. I was also heevily into alcohol at the time.
I almost never drink now, I had enough alcohol in college to last
a lifetime.
i've never heard of throwback Thursday. Was that started by the same person who thought of "Pantless Friday?"
College kids have throwup Saturdays.

Actually they don't.
I drank a lot in college, never got sick, never threw up.
They key to avoid getting sick is to not mix alcohols.
i.e. if you start with one type of drink stick with it the
entire night.
A had lots of years of practice in perfecting this theory.
I beg to differ. I knew (or know as the case may be) several
who literally partied until they puked virtually every weekend.
Some have out grown that and unfortunately some have not.
Great picture, Frodo -
I would have guessed this picture to be a 70s picture, though.
I've heard of throwback Thursday - I've seen various sites post pictures and ask for feedback - what's happening in this picture or can you identify the people?
I've heard of freestyle Friday and Turban Tuesday, too.
Isn't the internet something?
I've never heard of any of them.
These postings are the first i've heard of them.
Although I have heard of na pants Friday.
And then there is this:

Frodo,
I would have guessed late 70s as well. After "shoulder length or longer" and before mullets. Nice thick full head of hair you have there.

James,
Hair is nicely setting on the shoulders. I think that qualifies as a longhair. Nice picture of you from 30 years ago!
peace,
