Nature can be cruel sometimes. Now that Julian Casablancas is looking all healthy and sleek, his Strokes bandmate Albert Hammond Jr seems to have gone drastically bald, if this cameo clip from a recent episode of 'Gossip Girl' is anything to go by.

It inspired us to think of a few Strokes-related hair loss puns.

1. 'Shave It Or Leave It'.

2. 'Hard To Explain' (My Sudden Baldness).

3. Er...

3. Can you think of any others?

hair to explain
joshua [Visitor] //November 5 2009 at 21:09
being bald means absolutely nothing. Granted the strokes were/are always noted on their style. it has nothing to do with creating their music.

Hey, Andre Agassi wore a mohawk toupee, so maybe that's an idea for balding Alby.
lu [Visitor] //November 6 2009 at 01:17

hmm...is that a big deal? who gives a crap about that? If they make good music, who cares if the guy is bald?? People today are buying records because of the band member's hair? I don't get it
ohno [Visitor] //November 7 2009 at 02:42

greg [Visitor] //November 14 2009 at 15:05
i think he looks cool- a bit like a younger elvis costello which is clearly what he's going for. i dread baldness so i'd never take the piss out of a baldy
laura [Visitor] //November 14 2009 at 23:05

i met the walrus [Visitor] //November 18 2009 at 15:25
haha a bald rock star-never gonna happen-not in a 101 billion years and all those saying 'it happens' or 'its one of those things' are probably bald as coots!
