Any Questions?

Actually, that pic presents more questions than answers.

Yes my first post. Great stuff here, great responses. Some good ideas thanks.

Interesting first post.


Pants definitely pants.

Depending on the locale, I'd definitely consider rockin' the kilt.

I agree with the idea of
custom dress shirts.
I also wear the dress pants and shirts mostly and
buy online from this Website
www.fitcustomshirts.com
Products of it are very good and comfortable.
these are economical and affordable.

Allman Brothers tribute band, t shirts and pants.

I like the leather look. But the lights get's me to strip down after maybe the 3rd or 4th song

It depends on the gig - but always at least wear a sock.

Gig attire. As a bassist you're the classy guy? I am in our group. I dress like I play, w style and class. Not a tshirt guy. How bout you?

Jeans boots and a t-shirt

 

[StephenJF]

I'm currently in a P&W and CR band so it's usually a black button down shirt with jeans and dark chucks. Occasionally a tasteful? aloha or panel shirt. T-shirt, shorts and flipflops at practice only.

Suit and tie.

Whatever the hell I want to... mostly band t-shirts and jeans. It's about the music, not the looks. If you don't like it, tough luck. I'm not there to look good for you or anyone else.

Ok, that may be a bit harsh, but that's my opinion, and thankfully, the musicians and crowd that I play with/for think the same. They couldn't care less if you showed up in a suit or just your underwear, as long as the music is good. And I appreciate that.

Button front and nice jeans. Tuck in the shirt for fancy, un-tuck for less than fancy.

Shoes to match the gig: country--boots. Rock, pop, etc--vans, converse, nikes, etc. Jazz, church--dress shoes.

I think the important thing is to put in the effort to look the part.

Depends on several things. The type of music you play, venues you play and type of audience you play to.

 

[Timmah]

For me? Depending on the gig, some combo of sneakers, jeans or khakis, button down shirt, and band t under that.

 

[Dave W]

Pretty much what I would normally wear.

Jeans
Button down shirt
Chucks
Sometimes I'll wear a t shirt, but it depends on the gig

 

[TC2112]

tube socks
protective cup
pasties

We usually play bars so I just wear a Hurley t shirt. Band leader insists we're comfortable while on stage.

I've always wanted to wear my favorite team's jersey but our vocalist is against that
