Halloween dress code...

No blue shirts? That would make Spock sad...

Just make sure you look like Star Trek & not the Wiggles

 

this is always a safe bet...

 

I'll need to find and post the pic of my band dressed as the guys from Rage Against the Machine. We covered their first album front to back for a gig one Halloween several years ago. It turned out to be one of the rowdiest gigs ever!

 

Ha! Brilliant!

The Pope and Monks is always a good one.
Zombies is easy (scissors and lipstick).

 

Had to google famous musician, Sean Michael. Results included an author and porno star. Still don't know who he is.

 

Got a Halloween gig. Just got in an argument with the singer about it. Sorry I'm such a stick in the mud but I hate dressing up and feel ridiculous doing so. Completely reject any makeup whatsoever. Don't know what I'm going to do. This sux. :***:

Not ever playing a gig but being in situations where you had to wear a costume I learned the hard-way while some outfits are fun and cool looking, they are not conducive to the situation. For instance I was wearing this mask and gloves, and etc all skeleton related. But in the house it was extremely hot to the point I was wearing the mask as a hat (which makes me wonder how Slipknot does it on a daily basis), and the gloves I had enough.

So in short, whether you are going to a party or playing in a band IMHO keep it simple. You can wear normal clothes and put scars on your face and call it a costume. I rather be comfortable than flashy; take a page out of Pantera. That can be explained when if you watch their VH1 documentary.

 

I think you should be more worried about your bassist showing up as a "Babylon 5" character.......

 

@drummer5359, time to get the bass player back. Get everyone else to dress as the Lone Ranger, don't tell the bassist.

 

the college library party halloween dress code:
no bellies
no butts
no boobs

 

If you have enough hair, grease it up and make you a stand up cowlick and go as a 40 year old Alfalfa or however old you are. For several years that was my go to costume whenever one was required. I also kinda sorta liked painting my entire face and front of my neck with spirit gum, pouring on a box of rice krispies and going as maggot face. Only did it a couple of times but it was well worth the trouble.

 

Ha! I "will" be 44 by the time the gig happens (I'll hang onto 43 until the final moment) and I still "kinda" have enough hair to pull it off but it's too short right now. I don't know. Guess I'll just find some weird but comfortable attire. Still not psyched about it but it'll probably behoove to join in their reindeer games.

 

A pair of hog washers over a pair of clodhoppers like Clem Kididlehopper. Just make sure the overalls are too short or roll them up.

Who?

 

I don't know. OP said they dressed up in musician costumes one Halloween and the singer dressed as Sean Michael. Who is that? I was at work searching and had to stop when the porno guy kept popping up.

 

Well, you should probably remove the word "party" from any/ all promotional materials.

 

This was me playing a Halloween gig as a banana about 12 years ago.

 

no fun
