Red headed Bass player in Firehouse. That's the only way I've ever referred to him.
Always thought Mustaine was a ginger, sometimes his shit looked blonde BITD.....I don't know, although it would explain his behavior somewhat.

Technically not hair metal.
The guitarist from Armored Saint was too, but also not hair metal.

Yes, for awhile in the last MTV days, he started visiting a tanning bed and dyed his hair with blond tones. It was bizarre to see Mr Thrash succumbing to the LA thing for 5 minutes.

Isn't there a famously ginger Sludger in Idaho or Iowa or somewhere equally obscure? I'm sure he's been in a band or two.

You can run, but you cannot hide the ginge. Vestiges remain. I am pretty sure that's why it always looked like he had no eyebrows.

Also not Hair Metal - But, I feel like a couple posters on my wall in the early 80's had a Bruce Dickinson who carried the ginger gene.

It's absolutely idiotic to contend Zep weren't A-listers in the 1970s.

Mick Mars 1976.
Bob doesn’t look like a true ginger.


Ricky Ream is more of a ginger than Bob is

HMZ sang in a band. At least one song. He's a ginger. Does that count?

Lizzy Borden
I always thought his look really hurt the band.
Their music was great but his big curly red frizzy Afro looked goofy as hell. He looks much better now that he straitened his hair and dyes it black.
I honestly think they would’ve been much more popular if he had the black hair in the 80’s.
