Maybe a stupid question, but i was wondering why Adam almost always wears sunglasses when he is outside, even if the sun is not shining. Of Course it can be a fashion thing, but do you think he also wears sunglasses when he didn't put make up on? Also with the hat/cap: he sure often wears a hat/cap (it is also very good against the cold in Europe, haha, I know), but maybe also because he didn;t style his hair and his hair is just flat without styling?

Photophobia - sensitivity to light. From the linked article
Simply avoiding prolonged time spent in harsh lighting or bright lights or wearing UV-blocking sunglasses and wide-brimmed hats when outside should alleviate symptoms associated with light sensitivity.
As a person with light eyes I can attest that I wear sunglasses even when it is overcast because I am better able to focus with the added protection.
I have dark eyes but still wear sunglasses all the time outside because UV light can get through even a layer of clouds and there is evidence that protecting the eyes from UV rays can lessen the chances of getting macular degeneration later in life. My mother has that horrible disease and is so frustrated at not being able to read anymore or see faces clearly. Whatever I can do to avoid that, I'm doing. It's even more important for people with lighter eyes like Adam's.

As I am one of the least 'rawk' fans on this site, Q3 will be jealous pleased to hear that as a very young teen, I actually saw Jimi Hendrix live when he played a gig in my town He was on his first tour in the UK and was on the same bill as Pink Floyd and the Nice (Keith Emerson of ELP was in the line up). The theatre was half empty too! I like Brian's playing because he makes beautiful, harmonious sounds most of the time (not a fan of shredding).

You know what...you may not know it but you MAY have seen Brian and Roger at that same gig There was a big gig in the UK when Jimi headlined a bill with Pink Floyd and a little lower on the bill was...Smile - Brian and Roger's pre-Queen band. Four amsuing anecdotes from that gig: They met Jimi for the one and only time when he stumbled into them and said...."Where's the stage, man?" Free was also on the bill but somehow billed lower than Smile despite having a hit single! Some of the footage survived and has been seen in Queen documentaries - unfortunately it was silent footage. Finally Smile got their first positive review...athough unnamed - "The loudest band in the western world unplugged and left the stage"

yeah, it really is counterproductive, wearing sunglasses when there is no big sun, you are like a person with a big sign above the head saying "Look At Me! I Am Cool" OR it could be that he is a fair skinned light eyed Californian who appreciates not only rhe aesthetic of the sunglasses and cap but also the comfort and UV protection that they provide. This ^^ In Cali we wear sunglasses pretty much all the time. Maybe because they are such a necessity out here & a big fashion accessory. I have 4 pair. It also makes him incognito and hides tired eyes. #CaliThings Remember, even though it is cloudy, the sun is still there! (We also walk around with water bottles 24/7. LOL!) Hi!

I saw Jimi at the Hollywood Bowl in 1967 - I was really there to see the Mamas and the Papas. It was quite a night and I bought his music the next day :-)
