Before the tight jeans fad hit and before he discovered coke, probably. :lol:

I was thinking that too.

FP - I just don't understand why Glenn would use such an odd metaphor at a live performance in Dublin. To me, it would be socially awkward and almost insulting to stand in front of an Irish audience and say that you are wearing green if you weren't, and I don't believe Glenn was either of those things. There is clearly a difference in the color of the jacket between the picture that I posted and the one you posted, which, to me, is easily explained - it's the lighting mix during the show. In any event, it's definitely rather insignificant in the big scheme of things.
And love the Subterraneans picture. Glenn looked like the star even then.
Re: Frey Fever : The Glenn Frey Photo Thread
I blame the lighting - I dont think an irish audience would have gotten the metaphor. To be honest we dont really do the 'green' thing very well anyway. If you were out on St Patrick's Day last week you could easily spot the irish - they WEREN'T wearing green except maybe for a badge, a shamrock or an accessory!!
I think the jacket may have been green but depending on the lighting in the video it may have come out blue.
Here it looks blue

I know it's insignificant. However for the vast majority of that show that jacket looks blue to me. The only time it has a green tinge is when the lighting is very low as in GA's second screenshot. I was under the impression that if you talked about 'the wearing of the green' it meant that you were identifiying with Ireland's national colour, not necessarily literally wearing it. If other people think it's green, fine. I'm afraid I can't see it as green myself.

Glenn and his band in 1982. I have 9 more, just of Glenn. Do you want them all at once or spread out?
