The concert band I play in wears all black for most concerts, and I think the look is good. Unfortunately, one July afternoon we were playing outside at a summer arts festival in the park. At other times like this where the audience is very informal and casually dressed, we too have worn shorts and t shirts. This time the director insisted on all black, and no shorts, no hats. So there we were, over 100 degrees in the blazing sun, with no shade. It was absolutely brutal, several were sunburnt to a crisp, and its a wonder some didn't collapse from sunstroke. Totally inappropriate dress for the situation, and I swore that I would never do it again!
