Hi. I'm in the middle of starting a Surf band. It's been a dream for many years, now. I'm located in Tampa. Anyway, the music end of it is going swell. But we've all agreed that we need some sort of image or stage dress to complete the experience for the audience. I've seen the getups the surf phantoms wear. And we've been tossing around the idea of putting some tiki heads or surf boards on stage. Anything to avoid the typcal bowler/hawaiian shirt, thing (nothing against that, we're just looking for something different). What do you guys do? Not looking to copy. I just can't figure out what's been done and what hasn't, at this stage.

I've started wearing a suit, Doesn't have to be an expensive one but it should fit properly. Hides all the sweat marks and looks good in photos.
Jazz it up with a colourful shirt and decent/funky shoes. You're a man. look like one
