Zakk Wylde—Now
As you can see in this photo, Zakk Wylde always had the hair. The look has gotten a bit scarier over the years, probably because of the beard. Wylde has had an amazing career, playing with Ozzy Osbourne and many other well-known metal bands. He and his band Black Label Society are currently on tour with Guns N’ Roses, and his music was selected as the new theme for ESPN’s “Baseball Tonight.” If you want to meet Zakk and jam with him, he’s doing Rock and Roll Fantasy Camp in February 2012.
