If John Deacon DID return.....

Yeah he definitely hasn't aged well.

But you have to remember the recent pictures were all taken without his permission. While press photos back in the 1900s were chosen to look good, the recent ones were just whatever the paparazzi could get and slap on their articles. But yes, he definitely did not age well.

Hold on. Compare a picture of any of them now to one taken in, say 1991, and they've all grown old. No shame in it. None worse than the other, just dignified old men who have spent their lives filling the world with joy.

True that Dysan. ^^

@dysan agreed

Plus no one really knows what his life has been like for the past 28 years, there could have been illness, family stresses, medication etc that could impact on his appearance.

Good point.

Also, we don't know how much work Brian and or Roger have had done to look as good today as they do. I do know Brian has been wearing a wig or something like that for a long time. I remember the wind catching his hair
when he did the Live at Queens day 2002 concert in The Netherlands (Holland) and you could clearly see how bald he was on top. Both him and Roger are in the public view so they have to look at their best. Who knows what is real and what is fake in this day and age.

Brian wearing a wig??no way his hair is pretty thin these days

My opinion
- Adam - great voice, but I absolutely hate his singing style, his "improvisations" or I have no clue how to call them, I heard that in the last years he toned it down a bit but it's too late for me
- Brian and Roger - I love them, but it was just painful for me to watch them perform, way too soft, way too slow, I'm sorry to say it, but they're too old to rock

If any of you disagree, great, go to the concerts and enjoy them, I'm over the anger I felt many years ago, now I simply ignore the last couple of tours and listen to the 1973-1995 stuff.

So speaking for myself - no, Deacon's return would not change anything for me, if Adam, Brian and Roger wouldn't change, I still would ignore the band and listen to the old stuff[/QUOTE]
Amen

John Deacon QUIETLY rocks these days.

Can't blame him for wanting a normal life

He's had his moment and now wants to live a quiet life. We all have to respect that.

Well I should have said toupee as the hair on the sides of his head is still there. And yeah it has been getting thinner overall but a toupee can be adjusted over time if the other hair changes. I just know what I saw very clearly when the wind hit him back then. No doubt in my mind.

I kind of assumed he wore some kind of wig/toupee since roger's balding already and Brian's 3 years older than Roger.

Age doesn't necessarily relate to balding. There are people with great genetics who never go bald at all. And there are also people who go bald in their twenties. An uncle of mine had that problem but the way he tried to hide it...
Let's just say he grows what he has left (which isn't much) to an immense length and spends 2 hours in front of the mirror with all kinds of sprays and crap after taking a bath. You will never see him on a bike because that would be fatal to what he has created. It looks like a flattened turd of hair.
