Things you wear for money

[Dom in Dorset]

I have a series of gigs coming up depping on bass for a local (I think slightly tongue in cheek) country band.

[Roland Rock]

One of those stupid spiky coloured wigs when depping on a Glam Rock gig.

.... and cowboy boots?

[crez5150]

Saying nothing me.......

[gapiro]

Various costumes a la village people. Although I prefer the flight suit

[discreet]

My previous band's idea of sartorial taste and restraint...

[crez5150]

Never wear white grease make-up when playing a black bass..... took weeks to clean

[Lozz196]

Hmm, I find wearing a suit/shirt/tie at work to be the 2nd most ridiculous thing to be forced to wear.

The first - "smart/casual". I refuse to go anywhere that has this dictat.

But then, I also used to look like this on stage:

If I could get paid for wearing things I would wear whatever you want.

[/quote]I love that shirt, where did you get it from?

[Dom in Dorset]

One of the others is lending it to me , I think the label says "Hero, California ranch wear" it's made from horrible nylon and has poppers instead of buttons , my wife thinks it was made for a stripper.
A google search for "western shirt" will find you plenty of similar items.

I handed my wearing of shiny suits over to pnefc42 of this very forum.
But I did at one point do this....

Which I am not proud of....

Nice bass , shame about the suit!

[chaypup]

Not entirely sure why we wore dresses but I swear I wasn't the only one! The singer (pictured) chickened out but everyone else was trannied up too.

I wear t shirt and jeans to work with black shoes for smart ...

[Dr.Dave]

Some tosser once said to me (you know the sort - speaks too loudly in front of his mates) 'Do you get paid to look like that?'

'Yes I do ' said I 'What's your excuse you scruffy cnut?'

Ah - the joys of being bigger than someone else !!!

[Lfalex v1.1]

The day someone tries to dictate what I wear on stage is the day I leave the band.

Remind me again why I',m not in a band.....?

Not surprising, really. I'd rather wear the dress and wig than be seen dead in that white shirt/black t-shirt combo. What was he thinking? Plus, he's proving publicly that he's a miserable stuck-in-the-mud party pooper, too. Though he [i]is [/i]a guitarist, so... what d'you expect?
