Just thought I'd say something...

[fishdude101101]

....getting ready for a gig...and I'm going to wear shorts. Might add in a pair white new balance and a Hawaiian shirt. Just thought I'd drop a talkbass bomb before I went tout the door.

Does it matter that it is a Hawaiian themed bar?

Discuss.

FWIW, I'm in the "Us Boomers have earned the right to wear whatever we damn well want, fashion be damned!" camp. hehe

Well I"m 40, so not a boomer, but I will wear whatever I want. What other talk bass rules can I break? Leave a case on stage? Scoop some mids?

Play a J instead of a P.

Only take one bass to the gig...

Leave your headstock tuner on the headstock.

I have a brand new pair of white tennis shoes in.my closet just waiting for the next gig.



I like to wear my button up sweater, like my dads, sometimes.

Hawaiian theme calls for some kind of sandal.

No prob! Sandals would be best. Otherwise, I’d suggest no socks with the white New Bals.

 

[Killing Floor]

Highly recommend a fresh set of rounds on that P bass.

Aloha, pehea 'Oe ?

Just popping in to recommend making the new balanced sandals with some creative scissor work. And keeping the white athletic socks on. 3 birds with one stone there. When you slice up the shoes just be mindful of the logo. That’s important!

edit: we’re gonna need to mix some cabs too. Preferably a 610 and a 118. The tens will handle your highs and the 18 will shake up the place. Mids? Scooped.

I always play a jazz. but with tort

 

[BassFalcon]

It’s starting to feel like having an actual real amplifier on stage with you will be the next TB faux pas.

 

[oranje]

Slap on some white crocs and go for the win.

I can abide all of it except those dang grandpa sneakers. When I turned 50, my buddies gave me a pair as a JOKE....as a way of teasing ne for getting old. So it isn't just me. White New Balance with the dark blue trim.

Apparently, the got me drunk enough that night that I promised, on camera, that I would wear them to one gig and actually play a song in them. So far I've managed to avoid having to pay up.

Hawaiian shirt? No problem

Shorts at a Hawaiian bar? I can live with that.

Sandals at a Hawaiian bar? Go for n it.

One bass, round wounds, no tort, mixed cabs, scooped tone? *cringe* (vomits in mouth a little) Alright. Fine.

But those dang retirement home sneakers gotta go! Anything but that! My gift pair are still in the box. I wouldn't wear them to cut grass!

 

[jamro217]

I can't believe I'm about to suggest this, even in jest, but... take the tort guard off and replace it with a plain one. AAAAARRRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Forgive me, for I have sinned!!!!

 

[DTRN]

OMG! I'm such an old nerd...I love white New Balance shoes...with blue trim. Is Geritol still a thing?

If you play like Robert Trujillo no one will be aware of your dress sense
