[Dixielandjazz] re Uniforms

[Captain Rapture]

Come on, folks - lets have some fun!

For one gig last year, I specified the dress:
White tennis shirts, interesting pants,
and your shoes must not match!

Five men. The three front liners sat there
with six different shoes in a row, tapping
they footies and playing great trad!

More recently, since the banjo player (Don
Kidder) and I were in the same fancy
barbershop quartet, we wore shimmering black
shirts with white pants and art-deco silver ties.
The front line wore white shirts and black pants
and black bow ties. Still looks like a band.

Sometimes I just can't help myself.
