Clothes that have become synonymous with musicians

Just list 'em.

The two that I can think of are:
Jaco (sorry, I had to take this one off the bat) and those stupid white pants.
And Pat Metheny, always wearing those striped shirts.

The only rule is.... You cant say Prince.

Haha, good call on Manring and his jeans. Way too good at bass, but he does dress the same in every video I've seen of him.

Well.... I see alot of backing musicians on various TV shows wearing BLACK... black T-shirt under a black blazier, and of course: black denim jeans... Gets fairly predictable at certain times of the year: award shows.
