Powderfinger Leads Movember Post by: Eddie Ruckus - Rockin' Blogger 2 November, 2009 - 7:43 AM
You’re going to see a lot of blokes in half-arsed attempts to shape their facial hair this month, but that’s okay because it’s all in a very good cause – we are now officially in Movember.
If nothing else, past Movembers have provided a great laugh, freeing up guys all around the country to try out their best ’70s pornstar look without fear of recrimination or whinging from your sheilas about how much it itches.
The idea behind Movember is to raise awareness and funds in the fight against prostate cancer.
Throwing their weight and upper-lips behind this year’s campaign are those testosterone-fueled lads out of Powderfinger, who’ve signed on as the campaign’s official music ambassadors.
The band are also donating five bucks from the sale of each copy of their new album, Golden Rule, which is pre-ordered through this site: www.powderfingermo.com/music/
Golden Rule is out Movember 13.
Band members are also offering personal tips on growing a healthy lip bush.
“If there’s one golden rule to starting my MO, it’s that preparation of the surface is everything,” explains Darren Middleton. “I’ve heard from a reliable source that it benefits from a little fresh lemon juice rubbed in gently early on to help stimulate the hair follicles and promote thick vibrant shrubbery. There’s a long way to Mo, but I’ll start right here.”
Who’s in for Movember? What sort of look are you going for?
