    Thinking she was simply rubbing a Buddha’s belly for luck, this innocent concert-goer was instead treated to an encore of Hot Sauce.

  2. BeechwoodAve Says:

    There once was a pop-star named Thomas
    Who’s hot, funky tracks he laid on us,
    But something seemed rotten
    When a fan asked, “is this cotton?”
    While rubbing Sir Dolby’s grey bodice.

  3. theAnomalous Says:

    By degrees, he’ll loosen her composure
    She knows he knows she knows he knows

  4. theAnomalous Says:

    Or…

    Mr Dolby reveals the key to achieving maximum polyphony…

  5. Mike Quinn Says:

    Which proves the saying “Many hands make Fairlight work”.

  6. radiogirl Says:

    Caption:

    “FEEL THE SCIENCE, WOMAN!”

  7. Rockit Says:

    The fans admire Mr. Dolby’s washboard, six-pack abs.

  8. Sharp Says:

    Here are a couple…..

    “All Hail the Electronic Hulk!”

    “The Mad Doctor Roars”

  9. Rockit Says:

    Ok, some more hehe…

    “Mr. Dolby shows us what he’s on The Flat Abs Tour.”

    “With rock solid melodies building smoothly over pumping beats, champ of champs Thomas Dolby carried his weight without fail—he flexed his musical muscle through not one, but three sets to an admiring audience. Hands down, this show was best in its class”

    (Hey, these caption fests are fun!)

  10. Rockit Says:

    Oh no, can’t edit these posts. First one should be:

    “Mr. Dolby shows us what he’s got on The Flat Abs Tour.”

  11. unearth Says:

    “Gotta tough this out. I hope no one can tell but my shingles are having a cloudburst”.

  12. Sharp Says:

    Well. one more.

    “And in time you’ll come to understand
    This flat old ab is in your gentle hands”

    In a double blind study, researchers proved today that tummy rubs can cause involuntary gestures while involuntary uttering the word “yes!”

  14. mizmusic Says:

    ‘I’m SO glad I bought the optional massage attachment
    for my keyboard stand…juuuuuuust a little lower now… *ohhhhhhh*…’

  15. Pie Penrover Says:

    “Blimey… Virtual Reality has really come a long way since the early 90′s!” commented Mr Dolby while enjoying the new InEyeâ„¢ Haptic Feedback retinal projection attachment to his trademark head-mounted display system.

  16. SoldInhabitant Says:

    A fan decided to check if she was “impressed with the size of that chest.” This snap shows she’s not the intellectual child.

  17. Rockit Says:

    “Wax on, wax off. Wax on, wax off.”

    “No, the keys to your Ferrari are in my other pocket,” Thomas exclaims during a recent show.

    Despite the relentless pleading from the large crowd of loyal fans, Thomas opted to keep his shirt on through the entire performance.

    Along with a new song, Thomas also revealed his new tattoo to avid concertgoers with the help of an eager fan.

    “After the concert, Thomas held the traditional Meet, Greet, and Feel with audience-goers.”

    “A fan at the ready as Mr. Dolby prepares to dive into the audience for the fifth time.”

  18. radiogirl Says:

    One more shot here…

    “In the middle of a performance, Thomas Dolby looked down and suddenly noticed the horrible long-term effects of Miss Sakamoto’s chemicals…”

  19. Sharp Says:

    One more LOL…

    “Thomas bellying up at the Belly Up!”

    “Thank you, Thing!”

  21. tmdrfan Says:

    Thomas Dolby, who is fond of windsufing, prepares to go crowd surfing at a recent concert.

  22. tmdrfan Says:

    And at that moment!…I thought of my fans!

  23. tmdrfan Says:

    Vishnu decides to modernize and goes on tour!

  24. jayway Says:

    Commander Dolby soon discovered that resisting the “Borg” was indeed futile. And in fact, that there were fringe benefits to giving in.

  25. float_your_climb Says:

    Thomas Dolby demos the latest M-Audio Trigger Finger.

    “The Synth God…He is…with child.”

    (Viva t-shirt!)

  28. Magic Lisa Says:

    Seance medium Dolby, before an audience of men of science and noted skeptics, successfully manifests his specialty, “The Living Hands of Cleopatra,” which none of the assemblege could adequately explain.

  39. duglmac Says:

    In San Diego, Thomas DOlby rolls out his new new meet’n greet policy for his loyal fans.

  40. duglmac Says:

    Next day, Thomas is flat on his back with a virus. Coincidence? I think not.

  41. duglmac Says:

  48. TGrant42 Says:

    Crunches crunches, I do these crunches, I…don’t want to brag about. Crunches crunches, I do these crunches, but my 6-pak is a thing to tout.

  49. Retrocanary Says:

    “WHAT THE HELL HAVE YOU DONE WITH MY MICROPHONE YOU STUPID WOMAN!!”

  50. Retrocanary Says:

    Actually wait, I’ve got a better one: “As Thomas Dolby exits the stage after another mindblowing performance, an MGM executive decides he’s be perfect for the returning role of Blofield in the new Bond movie”

    “rub a dub dub.. Dolby in a club”

  65. duglmac Says:

    “Thomas Dolby in Arizona Jail”

    TheSmokingGun has the picture that started it all. Shown in this picture are the hands of miss Sheila Fertona, the 14 year old girl Thomas Dolby was later found with in the back of his tour bus while passing through Tuscon, Az.
    He was on tour to promote his latest bluegrass album ‘The soul of the inhabitant’ after a hiatus of 15 years from the music scene.
    UPDATE:We have received email from several people suggesting that Thomas Dolby plays electronic music, and the name of the alubum is ‘The Sole Inhabitant’. Sorry for the confusion.

    3. Go on….make me turn my head and cough…

  68. ColdLazarus Says:

    Thomas’s experimentation with trying to fuse analog synthesizer parts into his stomach went terribly wrong as the molecular structure of his body spontaneously grew hands while performing…

  69. float_your_climb Says:

    One example of a Rorschach Inkblot interpretation….

  70. mizmusic Says:

    “Boy, Fran, when you said Dolby had a magnetic personality,
    you weren’t kidding! My *hands* are stuck!!”

  71. Sharp Says:

    a final one.. this is way too addictive!!

    “She blinded me with abplyance”
