basskit_case Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 (edited) I have my first gig of sorts coming up next Saturday, but I am at a loss as to what I should wear. It is in my ex-bosses large garden, there is normally approx, 100 people invited to an all day/evening garden party/bbq. We are essentially playing Queen tunes so I am J Deacon, what should I wear other than clean pants and a smile? Should I go with something Deacon'esque or something suitable generic, as a fat lad I fear the small yellow shorts are out Edited June 22, 2013 by basskit_case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xgsjx Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 Wear whatever you feel comfortable in & if that's a bomber jacket, a pair of wellies & a G string, then so be it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dingus Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 (edited) I would say that a Live Aid - era Jonh Deacon perm is [u]mandatory[/u] . Why do people remember Queen as the best act on that fateful day ? Some would say Freddie's stage prescence . others would say a back catalogue of hits spanning over a decade , but the real reason is John Deacon having the balls of steel neccesarry to face an audience of billions with a coiffeur right out of The Hair Bear Bunch : Don't forget to post pictures on this site of the results ! And as for the tight yellow shorts , I ( almost ) guarantee you will be fighting the ladies off with a stick if you wear them - the tighter the better : Edited June 23, 2013 by Dingus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
