4. The Stones used to be good looking.
But getting old and all the chemistry experiments took their toll. :-)

6. Mick Fleetwood? Billy Idol? Tom Waits aint too pretty either.
The guy from Ace of Base, can't remember his name, was Fugly.

Tully Kupfenberg of the Fugs was pretty grotesque.

I am sure I am forgetting some. I had one in the front of my brain, but I am so pissed about my cat...

8. Ric Ocasek
Formerly the lead singer of The Cars, now a record producer.

And no, I'm not just saying this because I'm bitter about him marrying a supermodel. :silly:

14. Oh, c'mon...
For supplying the music to Phoebe Cates removing her top in "Fast Times" alone, The Cars deserve a place in the RnR Hall of Fame. :silly:

9. Mick Mars of Motley Crue
I saw him on VH1's "Behind the Music," and he looked like Cousin It on the Addams Family.

17. Ozzy, of course
Also Lyle Lovett. I know he's more country, but he's ugly enough to count.

Lovett is an ugly fuck, ain't he? Voice of an angel though. I'm not big on country but I love his voice.

19. Lemmy!
From Motorhead. Nobody is uglier.

Also, I'll give a shout-out to Lyle Lovett. Not a "rocker", but as ugly as one can imagine. (he still kicks ass, though)

20. Michael Stipe.
And no fair saying, "Well, he's not that good."

I saw how Simply Red got picked on in another thread and I love them too.

But Michael Stipe is, well, ... just not very attractive. And I love the guy. :shrug:
