Coming from a punk background, dressing up to play is a bit of a change of attitude. I wear a suit. Adam & Tony usually wear bowling shirts or something vaguely smart.
For punk and blues you can get away with jeans and a T shirt, but with surf I think a decent outfit really helps identify you as a band. You look a lot more pro, and, as I learned quite quickly, in a suit you never look crap. I look at some photos of our early shoes in Hawaiian shirts and we look pretty rubbish. Of all the photos of me in a suit, it looks pretty timeless. Classic almost.
It does help getting the suit to fit and flatter you.

Cool KBK shot but Why is Chad so mad?
So glad you guys are back at it.
Cheers,
Jeff
I assume he is mad due to the realization that he is slumming it with us these days.

The trouble with matching outfits is that whenever someone leaves the band, you have to find a replacement who's the same size!

That is AWESOME! (Also suicidal between the months of April and December down here!) I’m definitely weird when it comes to this - some costumes I find unforgivably tacky and tasteless, while others excite and delight. This one delights!

This was Version 2.0 of The Fintastics.
Version 3.0 knocked it down to three members, then our drummer quit.
We are currently looking for a replacement drummer for version 4.0.

We’ve had so many drummers that our nickname is Spinal Tap. Including one-shot fill in drummers, I can think of at least 7.

So after committing to our dickies work shirt look, I realized I didn't have any more of the patches. Ordered a few more. Ordered another shirt for the new drummer. Yesterday I sat down to sew the patch onto the shirt...can't find them ANYWHERE. so annoying! I've turned the house upside down in what appears to be a fruitless search. Drummer might be in a plain blue shirt tomorrow...

Caught The Young Barons last night. They've adopted a surprisingly infrequently seen aesthetic.

Looking good guys!
I refuse to ever wear a Hawaiian shirt. I just think they are goofy. Bowling shirts or Dickies work shirts are cool however!! I’ve got zero issues with wearing those!

Me too, but on very special occasions, I’ll wear an Aloha shirt. (There’s no such thing as a “Hawaiian” shirt in Hawaii!)

Matching guitars is next level for sure! Though it might be a particularly hard move in my case.
Can't quite seem to get a good shot of all of us, but imagine three people dressed like this!
