Tom Green Comeback Starts With A Documentary, Stand-Up Special & More

Author Mike Anthony

For a while, Tom Green was everywhere.  On MTV, in movies, guesting on other shows and more.  Well, the Tom Green Comeback Is On!  Although he’s been working quite a bit, it’s been more under the radar.  But big things are set for him and it could propel him back into the limelight.

No matter your opinion on Green, you have to admit he made a pretty big name for himself.  The Tom Green Show had a large following when it was on MTV.  Some of his films were cult classics – “Freddy Got Fingered” and “Road Trip” to name a couple have many memorable moments.  He also had a highly publicized (albeit) short-lived marriage to actress and now talk show host Drew Barrymore.

But this was all decades ago and before I heard about him making a comeback, I actually had forgotten all about him! Although, he’s been doing stand-up, has appeared on AXS TV, hosted an internet talk show, and more over the years.  None of it carried the same weight or classified him as an A-lister (if you will) as his older work did.

Well, that might change soon.  There is a Tom Green documentary coming out that will cover his rise to fame and marriage to actress Drew Barrymore and even his fall back to planet Earth.  He will debut a new comedy special, that looks to be promising and funny.  And as if that wasn’t enough – Amazon Prime Video Docuseries debuting in January that will show his life living on a farm in Canada.  The series is four parts in length.

Oh, and instead of singing “My Bum Is On A Man, my Bum is on a Man”, Green also has a country album due out.  Yep, you read that right. There’s no title or release date, but his song “Get Er Done Tonight” is already out.

So, there you have it.  A bunch of projects are on the way and Green really has a chance to regain his larger-than-life celeb status.  Then again, this could be too little too late.  Time will tell!

Mike is all about having fun each afternoon. He brings you concert tickets, some fun trivia, and of course the best bands. Other interests outside of being at WDHA are drums, movies, and my family. Also, like most radio personalities, he loves live music. There's nothing like a live show to hype him up! His all-time favorite band is Metallica. But according to him, the list of others is pretty lengthy.

Rating Rock's Most Prominent Mustaches

Rock has a hairy history…literally. Across every decade, there’s usually a rocker that emerges with some killer facial hair. While we love a great beard, this gallery will focus on the wonder that is the mustache.

There are a wide variety of mustache types. An “Imperial” mustache is a thicker style where the ends curl inward. There’s also the “Horseshoe,” which is thicker and has ends that curl down towards the mouth. A close relative to the “Horseshoe” is the “Fu Manchu.” The big difference between the two is the “Fu Manchu” has a hairless gap above the upper lip, while the “Horseshoe” is fully connected. The ever-controversial “Pencil” mustache is a thin line of hair just above someone’s upper lip. (Think Little Richard or John Waters.)

Fun fact, and also to prove that any interest has an association: There is such a thing as the World Beard and Moustache Association (WBMA). This association overlooks the World Beard and Moustache Championships. (Yes, this is a real thing.) According to the WBMA’s mission statement, “We also encourage the worldwide appreciation of beards and moustaches. We believe that all facial hair-related events should encourage friendship among those with facial hair and those who appreciate it.”

Our Rating System

To celebrate the mustache and its place in rock history, we selected nine rockers from varying decades who were known to wear a mustache. Some of these men range in being known for their hairy upper lips, while others simply wore a mustache seemingly for fun.

Our rating system won’t use “stars”; instead, it will be based on a range of 1 through 5 mustache combs. With this range, “1” will be the lower ranking, while “5” is a truly supreme mustache for all to admire.

Without further ado, keep scrolling to see our ratings on some of rock’s most prominent mustaches.
