Of the 80 pounds Brent weighed in this photo, around 25 of them are purely beard.

    I love Brent because his songs are all pretty and melancholy little middle of the road ballads until he gets Tourette’s in the middle of the song and screams “I DON’T #%$^#& NEED LOVE AND I SURE AS HELL DON’T NEED YOU #*$*$*”

      It was a rather sudden tonal shift, yeah.

    I mean, you really lose the soft rock demo with that sort of thing.

    I always thought Brent was a plumper. Must’ve just been the beard

      I think he filled out a little over his tenure with the band, but this pic is from either ’79 or ’80 and it struck me how tiny he was.
