Halloween costumes for bands

The best costume I've done was for a enviromentally themed Halloween party back in the 80's. Naturally I went as "Noise Pollution" :eek:

The props:
1) Twin filter gas mask
2) Hooded sweatshirt - hood up
3) Coveralls - the mechanic kind, not the farmer denim overalls
4) Black rubber boots
5) Chemical gloves - removed to play of course
6) Old trenchcoat - hit with various shades of "dirty" spray paint.
7) and the finishing touch... One BC Rich Ironbird (pointy shaped guitar) with a custom graphic of zombies rising from the grave. Oh and it was a metal show of course.

Just think if I had kept this look I would have beat Slipknot by about 15 years and I'd be makin' millions! :rollno:
