Yeah, I second that.

Usually - The smell test is what determines what good stuff i wear that is either on the floor or stretched around the back support of one of my armchairs. Cause it's there for some reason.

I normally wear a band t-shirt, jeans, and sandals, and when we play Marley songs, I put on one of those hats w/ the dreads, lol.

Shirt: A long sleeve button-up shirt. Most of the time I stick to a safe, charcoal gray one with the occasional silver tie. Sometimes I'll go extravagant and wear a really wild '80's shirt with flowers and stuff on it. I'll post a pic sometime. Also with the tie I might go full out with the whole three piece suit. Or if I want to be cool on stage just a witty T-shirt.

Pants: Most of the time, jeans. Sometimes suit pants if I'm really fancy.

Shoes: With jeans, vans or house shoes. With suit, dress shoes.

I also have several cool hats to wear with the witty T-shirts. Think Jason Mraz.

Doc martens, then, a leather single strap wrestling unitard (similar to jerry the king lawler in the old days), a huge black strap on dong over that, wrist to elbow spiked guantlets on both arms, then a leather zipper mask with only the eyes an nose holes zipped open.

Is that because the songs weren't as good or did being well-known ruin the experience for you?

HINT: One of these answers kind of makes you look bad.
