the music stage tour
ok, ok. but the kind of band that calls themselves the '[firstname] [lastname] band' is a certain kind of band. sensible dudes sensibly rockin' in sensible long-sleeve shirts. in fact, it's probably modern bar bands. go fig.

at a local record store 25 years ago someone had modified reo speedwagon's divider label into "oreo speedcookie" in the vinyl bins. i thought it was just some clerk being snarky... THEY WERE REAL!

I remember Salem Witchcraft from the 70's. (They were a Harpo's mainstay.) They ultimately shortened their name to Salem.

Query:
Were these band uniforms all hand made or was there a band uniform industry that died sometime in the 70's/80's?
