Just found out that a gig that I'm playing Saturday is a mandatory costume party. I'm not much into costumes and want something easy but cool. Throw my some ideas bass brothers!

That is funny! My wife won't like it though. She is scared of clowns.

You could go as Billy Mays, with some white powder sprinkled on your beard, but there's probably a lot of people doing that.

Corpse of Patrick Swayze?

Get a skeleton jump suit, see if anybody notices.

Go naked.

I can't think of anything specific off the top of my head, but look at "Spinal Tap" for inspiration.

Dress up as Dr. Frank N. Stein.

Resident Evil S.T.A.R.S. officer... easy to pull off, requires tactical vest, black swat style boots, black military bdu pants, one S.T.A.R.S. patch easily obtained from your local S.T.A.R.S. airsoft/paintball groups (tactical simulation).

Find a bear costume, and only wear the sleeves.

Go as the 2nd amendment.

Santa Claus!

It'll be great - all the ladies will sit on your lap, and your wife can't get mad because... well, you're Santa Claus!

My 2 room mates' band is playing a Halloween show. Their whole band (2 guitar, bass, drum, and keys) is dressing up as animals. Basically, just creepy-ish animal masks and hooded sweatshirts. It's simple, cheep, and actually looks really good.

I gave them the idea, and i totally stole the idea from this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EICkZWEzFGE


Also, zombie is easy to do in a pinch and always seems to be my own fallback plan.

I heard of a guy wearing jeans and a flanel shirt. When people asked "what's your costume" He said "I'm Lou Diamond Phillips, stupid"
