OT- Need an EBMM Beanie, I am FREEEZING!

[AtomicPunk]

I know this is WAY off topic, but just had a job interview a 2 weeks ago and had to get my hair cut SHORT for it. (not Army short, but close).
Anyway, it's freezing up here in Michigan and now that I don't have long hair anymore I realize why people wear these knit hats! It's COLD.
Would love to get a EBMM knit hat but don't see them in the store...where would one freezing Bongo-head get one?

That has got to be worse than here, for sure! Makes for a VERY cold load out after working under hot lights all night...its like going from a tanning bed to a walk-in freezer! No wonder everyone gets colds here!

yes today is very brutal, kinda like winter telling us it ain't over yet.

mother nature can be mean with us.. id rather take -25c with no wind and no humidity than -10c and wind and too much humidity here at the coast
the eb beanie is nice and your local dealer should be able to get one, or you could try looking at the shopatron site

Thanks, can you post a link to the Shopatron site? Not familiar with it...thanks!

Edit: did a search on it and came up with the UK Ernie Ball store...WOW! Lots of cool t-shirts out there. Love the biker ones. But no beanie / tuque / knit hat in sight.

Don't all you kids have a wardrobe full of "hoodies" to keep your head warm? Or do you only wear those in the middle of summer like everybody else seems to For some reason the only time I've ever seen someone wearing a hoodie when it was actually cold was Stallone in one of the Rocky movies.

You've never been in quebec city... I wear a hoodie + a tuque (not quite sure if I translate it correctly) + a scarf regularly. Trust me, cold means 30 celcius below zero here .

I dunno about all this negative stuff but, to me, cold =~ 50 degrees.

Jack, what does it mean when temperature goes below zero?

They're scaring me.....

 

[philthygeezer]

A tuque from SLO!? LOL I'd want a California tuque! Make it from acrylic or preferably wool. Wool is warm even when wet and won't melt beside the fire!

Coldest I ever saw was -66C (-86.8F). IIRC, I wore a tuque (under the hardhat)!

 

[AtomicPunk]

I think Stallone wore a hoodie AND a tuque! Running in the morning in Philly can get cold!
Yes, there are hoodies but most of me is burning up after a gig (when I get in the car, the windows fog up) and the last thing I want to put on is another layer of clothing to cover my now-cropped head.
Probably more info than you wanted to know, but....

They are on the UK store check out
Ernie Ball UK - Specials
the only problem is they don't ship out of the UK so maybe get a UK Knucklehead to get it for you

I think it was 85F here today...

When I had long hair it would freeze on my head while walking in between classes in Michigan.

Yesterday here in denver it was a warm 74. I could use a hat though!
