Stage Clothes.

[EasyAce]

I've worn some things on stage that I dunno whether to be ashamed of, or proud of wearing.

I wonder if Eric Clapton thinks that now of the time he toured with Freddie King, they'd play a couple of numbers together during the shows, and Clapton turned up with this T-shirt . . .

I remember seeing a picture of Clapton in that shirt and King to his right, and the pair of them were laughing their tails off . . . but damn if I can find that picture . . .

This is a pretty cool thread. I always wonder about minor stuff like this. I always wonder why some power trios line up- guitar, drums, bass and others- bass, drums, guitar? No matter what though- "you gotta look good, you gotta act tough"- Handsome Dick Manitoba.

Street clothes.........let the music do the talking.

I get what you're saying, but the music does that anyway regardless of what the people playing it are wearing.

To each their own, but I still like it when a band doesn't look like it just walked in off the street. That's just me.

Street clothes(no tee-shirts), except one house party gig about 10-12 yrs ago, when we did a late 60s psychedelic costume thing with the ty-dies, beads, fringes, etc. Great fun

nice shirt. What brand? It fits you well. (I make this observation in a very hetero way)

The short sleeve shirt is a Fender shirt, the long sleeve shirt is Campbell.

Street clothes all the way. Usually some sort of black shirt and jeans. I would feel like a dork walking around in a costume. Come to think of it, I've always been that way Here's a photo of my band from the high school days 35 years ago. I'm in the black shirt on the left.

Band photo taken last month. Again, black shirt and on the left. I guess some things never change. Well, maybe the hair and the waistline.
