Seen anyone who looks like Aidan?

Okay, so I watch The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and he's got this amazingly great band called Stay Human, and I've been noticing the alto sax player because he always looks so happy. His name is Eddie Barbash, and he's really cute, and he looks kinda like a short Aidan Turner. Has anyone noticed him? Here's a video of Stay Human playing outside in NYC: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eNzXRy1WFRQ Right after this one on YouTube comes a longer performance on the streets of Williamsburg that's a lot of fun! There are a bunch of them, actually. And here's a still shot of him on his own website: http://eddiebarbash.com/ Eddie is very talented and went to Julliard as did John Batiste, pianist and leader of the band.

Feel free to post here about anyone else you think might look like Aidan although I realize he is unique and there's only one Aidan Turner. But there are probably a few guys who resemble him in looks at least a little bit. And I guess you can't have too many guys who have dark hair with heavy eyebrows, dark eyes, and a great smile. 😁

Edit: Eddie Barbash has disappeared from Stay Human on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. If anyone knows what happened to him, I'd like to know. I miss his smile.

Ray Donovan.

Oh, you mean Liev Schrieber? Only vaguely, as far as I'm concerned. He's not dark enough, and his mouth is completely different. But you're not the first to mention him.

Nope. Not yet find anyone with those eyes. He has sharp eyes and wide eye inner corner, which I think come from his Arab blood.

Arab? There are a lot of Celts who have his coloring and look:

Colin Farrell
Sean Connery
Catherine Zeta Jones
Timothy Dalton

It has nothing to do with being Arab.

Did the Arabs invade Ireland then? Or perhaps there's some Arab via some Spanish influence? Quite possibly. And I know what you mean, but I still do almost a double take when I see that sax player Eddie Barbash, although he's a lot shorter than Aidan, but he's got very similar coloring. Come to think of it, Barbash could be some sort of Middle Eastern name. I don't know much about him except he's got a great smile, too, and always looks happy.

Unfortunately, Eddie has been missing lately, for weeks on The Late Show. I don't know if he got another gig or what, but I miss him. He has such a great smile!

John Stamos, if he grew out his hair and curled it

Aidan reminds a bit of Michael Hutchence.

Regé-Jean Page reminds me A LOT of him. A mixed race version.
