Though he kept it hidden under chunky Fair Isle jumpers.

Do you remember that huge saxophonist in Tina Turner's band, in the Eighties? Who was that?

Neil Young is probably nobody's idea of a body builder, but has been serious about working out for at least two decades now in order to combat back pain and post-polio problems.

Alos, I think Tina Turner's touring band around "Private Dancer" had a keyboard/sax dude who was SERIOUSLY ripped.

50 Cent vs Henry Rollins. I'd pay to see that.

Now that you mention it, Bruce himself bulked up pretty significantly in the early-mid '80s.

As has Trent Reznor in recent years, in case anyone's failed to notice. His biceps make me happy.

Boyd Tinsley, the violin player from the Dave Matthews Band, is RIPPED.

That is NOT Glenn Medeiros. Is it?

Nothing's gonna change my love for those guns, either way.

JON-MIKL THOOOOORRRR

Okay, "star" is arguable (and so is "musician," "actor," etc) but really, this is just too fucking goofy not to post.

How quickly we've all forgotten about this pop LP masterpiece?
