Eeeeee. This is a tough one. I’d have to say the bespectacled fellow. Mr. Tat Forehead is a little too, for lack of a better word, unsubtle.

Splotchy: Thanks for that insight into your band-choosing process! It was definitely a result of the previous band, the all-girl mariachi band. How does one come across such a band, I wondered.

I, too, think Receding Hairline Tatboy is in charge, but Body Piercing Crispin Glover Moptop (third from left) is going to give him a run for his money. Perhaps there’s a power play afoot? It’s definitely not Javier Bardem (second from left), who clearly can’t be anything but a drummer or psycho killer.

Mr. Third-from-the-Left has all other band members in his orbit. Literally. It looks like he’s just a solo singer-songwriter and he’s at the center of a dour-faced, black-clad, colorfully tattooed circle of 85-pound security guards. I vote for Third from Left.

P.S. If any angry band members show up: it was my husband who took one look at the photo and said, "Who are those freaks?", not me.

Well-played, Lonie.

At first I was gonna say the guy second from the right, because he is closest to the camera and has the most visible tatts, but then I noticed he has receding hair, obviously a sign he's getting old, about to be pulled down and rent to pieces by the young'uns like a toothless old lion. Far left doesn't want to be there, as evidenced by his 'Klinger' tactic of looking as much like a girl as possible in the hopes someone will kick him out of the band. Second from left is just killing time until his thyroid operation to correct the puffy cheeks. Third from left is obviously Murdoch from Gorillaz, and therefore just visiting. Far right looks grumpy because he's not in charge.

Ergo, third from right is in charge. He's so much in charge he can afford to look normal, and let everyone else have the spotlight.

far left is wearing lipstick. the only thing he's in charge of is making sure the tour bus/mini-van has enough wine coolers.

guy in the back left looks like he might throw up. right fully so. he's in charge.

mr. forehead is probably the frontman, like dave gahan of depeche mode or bono of u2. but mr. far-left gets my vote for being “in charge”, like martin gore of depeche mode or the edge of u2.
