Real simple, if you had a choice of Ed wearing the Fedora when performing live vs a Trucker ball cap which would you choose.

    I'd call it a wide brim or flat brim before a fedora

    With the Fedora, Eddie looks like he escaped a Monty Python sketch.

    I’m assuming he’s experiencing rapid hair loss as he ages and is trying to figure out his look.
    I’ve been there. As I was balding in my 30s and 40s, I constantly wore baseball caps.
    It has to be particularly tough for someone in the public light whose locks have been part of his rock star legacy. 
    I feel for the guy. 
    That said, the fedora isn’t a good look. Indiana Vedder?

    As a fellow balding guy with long hair, this shit sucks and I don’t blame him for wearing whatever makes him feel comfortable. And I’ll take dumb hats & Hokas over some embarrassing attempt to be fashionable that would look even worse.

    Get a life people (William Shatner voice). Personally I think he should go with bucket hat and yeezys. Heads would explode. Or maybe just the out of the box fan uniform of slightly too small t shirt (humble bragging fandom) and baseball cap (preferably trucker). Can anyone else spot a PJ fan from a mile away? We run in packs of 2-4. Middle age. Generally nice........
