bands' uniforms

Just discovered this charming site, a database of Swedish dance bands: http://www.svenskadansband.se/database.php. Now not everyone has to look like this: http://www.svenskadansband.se/img3332.htm but I feel that more bands should wear matching outfits. I saw Delphic over the summer and was happy to see them in matching polo-shirts with a big D logo, but which other bands have their own uniform?

The band hated this look so much that they contrived to each 'lose' a different item.

I clicked this thinking we'd be rating the marching bands in the Macy's parade. D:
Does anyone know why all boy and girl groups wore similar versions of the same outfit? Easy marketing and identification?

That's not a "laugh track", it's an audience and you're in it. (MintIce), Friday, 26 November 2010 02:09 (fifteen years ago)
