Greetings --

Has anyone attempted to interpret the band members' hair-styles incorporated in the 10,000 Days imagery?

I've been particularly interested as to why Maynard's hair is standing upright in the photo, but missing in the mirror. Along with that, all other band members have long hair.

Justin's hair is long, yet he's the only one in the photos wearing a hat, so as to perhaps cover the source of his hair. He is also the only one with facial hair.

Adam's hair is long, but not quite as long as Danny's or Justin's, but is straighter than theirs.

Danny is the only one with blonde hair.

The lady in Maynard's photo has short, dark colored hair, in a sort of boyish cut.

I assume it has something to do with the usual recurring theme of duality, but wanted to see if anyone had some interpretations.

I like tool's music.

I PUSH MY FINGERS INTO MY EYES!!







but, no thanks on the slipknot

to the OP:

people have different hair.

Hmmm. You could be reading too far into it. I would say it's a simple stylistic choice, rather than an intentional message.

Haha, wow....I'll practice my "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all" theme here.

LOL, very original perspective. I'm curious what's up next...

I agree about perhaps reading too far into it - and was certainly aware of the possibility of overanalyzing when posting. However, this is the "artwork" board, and as just about ever single post in this subforum pertains to the "puzzle," it's important to touch upon every aspect in a somewhat significant manor. This is why I asked if anyone else had noticed what I had noticed, so as to get an idea of just how far I'm examining it.

Not trying to make something out of nothing -- just offering some extra observance.


Me too :)

The hair on my nuts is brown, there's some signifigance for ya'

fixed

I find significance in that you have hair on your nuts at all.



Why is it that no one is allowed to make threads without them getting hijacked? I need teh number for internet police.

Sorry bro.
That particular number is sold out.
:)

Just kid-ding dong.

Moron, I'm 30, not 55

Yeah, well, I did trim them for your mom, if that's of any relevance to you.

Do i wanna know how you figured that out?

Nope.

When you play "Rosetta Stoned", listen closely. At 4:33 you can hear the buzzing of hairtrimmers in the background accompanied by the rhythmic sound of scissors.

Glad we can all find humor poking fun at each other.


Can we AT LEAST discuss theories on why Maynard's hair is missing from the reflection?


Then we can discuss theories about inner_eulogy's pubis


Or, you can make your own facking thread about it.

*rolls eyes*

It was a joke. Do you really think I expect people to make a thread about someones crotch?

Did anyone see the movie Barbershop? Or that hilarious spin off, The Beauty Shop?

I'm assuming they're hilarious, I've never seen either of them.

puzzle is already solved...
hairstyles? u gotta be fuckin kiddin me, right?
and by the way... maynards hair isnt "visible" in the mirror - i.e. from the SIDE- because its an IROQUOIS!
got a brain in there? paaleeeezzzeee...

Oh contraire, my pube hair is much more signifigant than Maynard's hair or lack thereof in the picture.

Maybe we should make a thread about my pubes...that would be great. I could add my Inners_Dick song to it again.

Good times

Dude, he's from Tallahassee, FL....what'd you expect?




lol, j/k...actually I lived there myself for a short period of time when I was living down in Panama City.

Dude, you're way overanalyzing it

Original for sure, this sort of network of connections underlying the themes of the artwork wouldnt surprise me in the slightest, these specific ideas from you though Gift definitely do. Compliments.

for the love of whoever:
the so called "puzzle" is a hint of blair for us to APPRECIATE the great work and effort the photo-artist has put into those goddamn pictures! its not so easy to photograph two pictures that combine their imagery when you put them over each other, i.e. using the album in-build glasses to merge the 2 pictures into one, just like you can do with your handy aleister crowley tarot deck (for example, try fool and justice).

there, i said it! thats all! two become one! hell of a "puzzle", isnt it?! :D

snails...

...thats it!

LOOK! There's a 23 hidden as well! Whoaaaa!

Pf...Believe what you want, see what you want...

but WHAT do you want? that a leprechaun comes jumping out of your ass after you have found the "...and?" beating you with his "magic rod" into enlightenment, or what?

seriously,... what... do you... want? what kind of catharsis are you looking for?
THAT'S the "puzzle", isnt it?


edit: have you ever TRIED the things i've mentioned in my earlier post? because, isnt it a bit bold to ask for more after you have experienced, first-hand, some kind of meaning behind all this?
