2. Clarence Clemons, with sunglasses and a high-top fade.
3. Max Weinberg, in a paisley shirt and vest, with a puffy haircut that looks like it’s trying to escape from his scalp.
4. Roy Bittan, with a pre-grunge beard and plaid shirt.
5. Courtney Cox, with a wedge haircut, a big black digital watch, and a sleeveless Springsteen t-shirt.
