Ooh, hats, lovely!
These two beauties came from Jill Corbett in Brighton, made to measure, and worn most of the time now, to keep the ever increasing baldy bits toasty. :)

I have a massive head and most places that sell hats only go up to about 60cm which won't fit me comfortably.

I'm 61cm XL, you just have to look a bit harder, but they are out there.
Be carefull of Bailey hats though, a lot of their styles are smaller than the label size!

The only hat that appears to look good on me is a Chinese army Ushanka (Russian winter fur hat).. Not terribly appropriate for gigging though.. I am, however, trying to get my hands on a suitable flying helmet with googles though :-)

Me too! I want to drive my Mk1 MX-5 with the roof down in the summer, wearing a flying helmet and goggles :D They do come up on ebay, but I'd need prescription lenses in my goggles.

Sure, I have a saved search running for them.. :-) the other option is a proper "Jet Fighter Pilot" "bonedome" style helmet :-)

Here's one of me in a hat, and mask. I play like this in Metaltech so no one knows it's me. Don't tell anyone[attachment=95523:thrapston.jpg]

I should probably clean the bass before gigs though, it looks grubbier than me.

I like to think of this hat as something like John lennon would have worn, circa Help. Probably look like a paedo in reality.
And, yes, the guitarist is tall and I'm very short. Always have been. Even when I was little ;)
