Pure speculation on my part, but I've thought that it probably came from when his younger brother hit him in the face with the baseball bat. It's kind of hard to see it when he was younger because of his length, so it's hard to know when the indentation/scar first appeared, but at least dates to the mid 70s. You can see it in most of these that I've posted.

I'm not sure it's a scar at all - My guess is that it is just a natural deep furrow in his forehead.

Mid 70s, no obvious furrows but the indent is there.
(Any excuse)
I don't think that it's a birth mark of some sort as it's definitely not on a kid aged Glenn.
I think that it's somewhat visible on the Longbranch Pennywhistle album cover.

Those first two youthful pictures really made me smile, especially the first one across from your avatar - same head tilt, pleased expression, eyes, hair length.
Didn't he accidentally get hit in the face with a baseball bat? I heard it hit him in the nose but maybe it his his forehead too.
If it's a birthmark or just an indetation, Glenn is so perfect looking!!! I honestly can't see a scar on that beautiful face!
You came along and changed my life Glenn!!
I've often wondered about that scar and think it must have been a childhood accident like hitting his forehead on the edge of a coffee table or something. It must have been a pretty serious cut to leave a scar for the rest of his life like that.
On another note, I am beside myself because I just discovered a new Glenn "thing" (don't you love when that happens??) ...sorry if this link doesn't work, I'm new here and still learning how to use the site:

It's his intro to Certain Kind of Fool from their 1973 show in Voorburg (found on youtube). His laugh is the cutest thing ever! And there is something about the way he pronounces "window" that makes me crazy happy!
Agreed, TS82! He's so cute!
People talking about us they got nothing else to do. When it all comes down we will still come through in the long run.
