2009 - Year of the Stache

All I Want for Christmas is a Moustache (and Stache Accessories)

Restoration Hardware doesn't really carry much that interests me these days. Not sure why I was looking through their gift section online, but I stumbled upon this very affordable set of fake moustaches ($5 for a set of seven). These things would look pretty good with a shirt from the "Stache Shirt Shop".

Meet Eugene Hutz...
He's the front man for Gogol Bordello, "a gypsy punk band fusing supercharged folk influences with a sideshow cabaret". No idea what that means, but I'm interested.
Eugene is starring in a new movie called "Filth and Wisdom". Great title. Still interested.
The name of his character is "A.K.". Very cool. Still interested.
The movie is written and directed by Madonna. Um...

Would You Like Some Cheese With That Stache?

This is my college buddy, Dave. He's from Albuquerque, but you wouldn't know it to see him now. He's obviously undergone some kind of a transformation. He lives in Paris these days, which is pretty cool and all, but has the immersion in frog culture finally started to get under his skin? I mean - I too have graduated from Natty Light on to some of the finer things in life, like a nice bottle of red. But a Euro-Stache? People who wear the Euro-Stache also frolic on public beaches wearing Euro-Speedos. It's a slipperly slope, old friend.

Karl Malone - Bringing His Stache to Dallas?

He looked to be in good shape, by the way. With a baseball hat covering his bald dome, he looked about ten years younger too.

The Stache Jumps the Shark

Matthew McConaughey (don't know if it's spelled right - don't care) probably thinks he's doing the moustache world a favor by sporting this thing. Not so much.
I'm glad he's a Longhorn and not a Sooner.

Prince Fielder: Chops Done Right

I don't think the chops are an everyday fixture for Prince Fielder, but they should be. A good stache will usually stand on it's own, but there are some that don't really turn to gold until they get an accessory. Lose the crooked hat and the peace sign. Keep the chops and the grin.

Giambi Brings Back the Stache...Beats Red Sox

a.) hitting a homer in the 7th inning to tie the ballgame, and then b.) driving in the go-ahead run in the bottom of the 9th inning
Fist bumps all around.

Hugs too, for those that want one.

Tiger likes what he sees...contemplates growing out a stache.

Today is 8/13 was my day
Head on over to http://www.fakemustaches.org/ to confirm that yeah, I'm kinda famous. For today anyway. As far as those in the fake moustache world are concerned. That's a big group of people, right?
UPDATE: It's still a cool site, but I'm not on the front page anymore.

Everything But the Stache?!?
UPDATE: I
"Naked Goat: A goatee grown without any accompanying hair above the mouth (i.e. no stache). A Soul Patch in and of itself does not qualify as a "naked goat" because it is normally not substantial enough to require an accompanying stache for the sake of aesthetic balance."

Challenge: Spread the Word...Play to Win!

The first person who creates his or her own "Bring Back the Stache.com" poster and makes it on screen for more than two full seconds during an offical television broadcast of an NFL, MLB, NBA or NHL game wins.
The Prize:
A shirt of your choice from my store, of course.
A Few Rules:
1. It's gotta be a tight shot of you onscreen during the game to qualify...you can't be a speck in the middle of a big crowd. A post-game show is easy to get on, so that doesn't count...unless of course you manage to get interviewed on camera while holding your sign.
2. The sign has to be perfectly legible on screen (including the ".com" part).
3. Be sure to tivo the game before you head to the game. You'll need to provide the proof to win the challenge.
4. Wearing a fake moustache is not a requirement, however, why would you not?
I accomplished this on my first and second trys, so it can't be that difficult. Get crackin!
Submit your entry to dan@BringBackTheStache.com
UPDATE: Thanks to Yankee Sam for giving it his best shot at Saturday's game. A New York transplant in LA, he had no luck drawing the cameras his way as the Yanks eventually got drilled by the Angels. However...is it any wonder that Giambi went deep with the "Bring Back the Stache.com" sign on the premises?!? Still no contest winner though.
UPDATE II: I'm not actively promoting this contest at the moment, but it's still open for anyone who has what it takes. If you get on TV with your "Bring Back the Stache.com" sign...go ahead and send me vid-proof and I'll send over your shirt.

Stache Clash Series Ends in a Draw

Yanks win and halve the series with the Rangers. I hate ties. It's like kissing your sister through a screen door. That's what my dad always told me. Speaking of, this is as good a time as any to show you a picture of my dad (with my mom). I've already established the fact that I can't grow good facial hair. So do you think I like looking at this when I visit home? The stache alone would be a point of jealousy, but he throws in the billy goat just to rub my face in it. Love you too, Pop.
Clash of the Stache IV - Where's Mike?
Gametime is quickly approaching for the final installment of this Rangers/Yankees homestand. I won't be in the stands tonight, but for those with a keen eye, my buddy (Mike) will be sitting in the front row behind the Ranger's on-deck circle wearing a white shirt with the "bring back the stache" design. Anyone who catches him on-screen and emails me a screen grab will get their name up in lights. Uh-huh. You read that right. (dan@bringbackthestache.com)
UPDATE: Anyone else get a chill when they saw Vazquez and Giambi together on first base? So much stache mojo in one place that you gotta try not to stare. It's like a solar eclipse...take a quick glance and then look away.
UPDATE II: Who is that guy in the crowd behind Crush Davis? The guy texting somebody as Ramon Vazquez approaches the plate. The guy not wearing his fake stache. The guy not holding up his "Bring Back the Stache" poster. Oh, that's my buddy, Mike. Found him.
UPDATE III: Might not have been any love for the "Bring Back the Stache" sign tonight, but Ramon sure had a hell of a night at the plate. And I love this freaking guy with the Vazquez sign. Look at the crazy eyes. And the hard-hat? I had one exactly like that when I was a kid. Wish I still had it. Didn't even know they still made em, but now I must have one.

Stache Clash III - Giambi takes it


Shout out to Rachel and Eric who were sitting behind me and my crew toward the end of the game. Fine young couple with a common interest in body paint, but conflicting views regarding American league ball clubs. They both look good in a stache as it turns out, so I like their chances over the long haul.
See the video that started it all...
For those that might still be hesitant to embrace the concept of the stache as a real and powerful force, here is a short video clip that should put any lingering doubts to rest. The simple chain of events in this clip are as follows:
1. During a Ramon Vazquez at-bat on July 31st, Josh Lewin acknowledges me and my sign, while Tom Grieve chuckles (he likes the fake stache)
2. The camera focuses in on Ramon's bygone stache on the jumbotron as Josh continues to talk viewers though the history behind the stache
3. Jamey Wright is seen administring the finger stache from the bullpen
4. Me and my sign appear on the screen
5. Not five seconds later - homerun. Note the play on words in Josh's call ("That one will NOT be brought back!")
Watch closely as the proof is most certainly in this video puddin:
"Bring Back the Stache" (a website is born!) from Dan on Vimeo.

Clash of the Stache III (I'll be there...so will ESPN)
Prepare yourselves for a Stache Clash of epic proportions
I will be at the game with my "Bring Back the Stache" sign, so watch for me and my fake moustache 13 rows up along the first base line between the dugout and the foul pole. Assuming I don't get overserved by the beer man, the sign should be out whenever Ramon (or Giambi) is at the plate.
Let me make this clear...I'm not rooting for Giambi to succeed per se...it's all about spreading stache awareness. As much as I love the Rangers, stache power is transcendent. Finding balance might very well be a lifelong struggle.
UPDATE: ESPN has picked up tonight's game. Should be electric at the Ballpark.
UPDATE II: I came, I saw, I rocked the stache
It's gametime over...Rangers win...again!
Giambi vs Ramon
Stache Clash
The fireworks were out last night...what will tonight hold in store?
UPDATE: Neither stache in the starting line-up? Let's hope tonight isn't completely stache-free.
UPDATE II: Ramon steps to the plate...Jamey Wright administers the finger stache from the bullpen...and...walk. Giambi walks too. Yawn.
Not everyone can grow a killer stache



Here's another college buddy of mine, Brent. I can't say that I was ever a big fan of any of his facial hair experiments during our time in school together. Then, years later, he pulls this look out of nowhere. I thought only cartoon moustaches could look that sweet.

The Finger Stache
You picked a fine time to shave your stache, Giambi
I should've known coming into this Rangers/Yankees series that there was a danger of wires getting crossed. A clean-shaven Giambi has a lot of desperate Yankee fans adopting the "Bring Back the Stache" mantra. This makes things a little tricky for me over the next few days. On one hand, I'm a Ranger fan through and through, so the Giambi homer makes me sick. But then there's another little part of me that gets a kick out of seeing the power of the stache introduced to a much larger audience (by any means necessary). When you grow out or get rid of a stache, you can't be assured that the effect will necessarily be good or bad. You only know that there will be electricity. I expect a lot of fireworks as the rest of this series plays out. With Giambi and Vazquez in the same ballpark, it's a perfect storm.
UPDATE: Rangers win on a Marlon Byrd walk-off Grand Slam! Who likes to win with a walk-off more than these Rangers?

A movement is started...

On July 31st, I took my sign and my fake moustache to the Ranger game. I know in my heart of hearts that if Ramon Vazquez would just set his vanity aside and grow his stache back out, the Rangers would be unstoppable. But would other Ranger fans agree? I was pleasantly surprised with the overwhelmingly positive response. The jumbotron guy seemed to approve - he could hardly keep his camera off of me. The powers that be at the Ballpark made me a finalist in the "best sign" contest. Josh and Tom gave me some props on the TV broadcast. It was a pretty sweet sign, so I can't say I was totally shocked with all of the attention that came my way. However, nothing could prepare me for the supernatural power of the Stache that became evident during the 8th inning. The Rangers were being shutout by a hapless Seattle team late in the game. As Ramon worked through his at-bat, Tom and Josh gave a brief history of the legend of the stache...then they showed me, my stache and my sign (see pic)...then not 5 seconds later....homerun! The timing was just too remarkable to ignore. Join me, Ranger fans...let your voices be heard...Bring Back the Stache!!!
