Fans joke about Gandalf lookalike from 1970s rock era
Original: I'm telling my nieces and nephews that this is Gandalf the Grey from The Lord of the Rings. # LOTR # 70s # Music # LedZe
A social media user joked that they will tell their young nieces and nephews that a figure from 1970s rock music is Gandalf the Grey from The Lord of the Rings. The gag plays on the resemblance between long-haired, bearded 70s rockers and the famous wizard, tagging Led Zeppelin and the Tolkien franchise.
Why now: The humorous comparison between long-haired 70s rock musicians and Gandalf is amusing Lord of the Rings and classic rock fans.
