And now for something totally irrelevant.
What do you wear for your music performances? Photos please, if you're proud of it (or not), or you think it's unusual. I'm sure we have some tuxedo folks here, even white tie and tails. And ratty blue jean, too. It's all about the venue and the expectations of your audience.
Anybody want to argue that it should not matter- only the sound is important? When YOU'RE in the audience, does performer's outfit matter?
And as usual I beg for the horror stories, sorry- but they're so much fun. Had to play in wrong clothes? Why? How did it go? Were you comfortable anyway? Wardrobe mishaps?
What does a WASPish old man "gospel clarinetist" wear to a gig during a church service where he doesn't know a soul? The usual suit and tie, or even tux, seems so BORING. Surely I can do better than that, or at least customize or accessorize somehow to fit my (mostly 1950's vintage gospel) music. On the other hand, performance wardrobe should not detract from my message (testimony) either. Thoughts?
