• Guys, we've spent considerable money converting the Les Paul Forum to this new XenForo platform, and we have ongoing monthly operating expenses. THE "DONATIONS" TAB IS NOW WORKING, AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY DONATIONS YOU CAN MAKE TO KEEP THE LES PAUL FORUM GOING! Thank you!

Allright, we have always been known as a "tuxedo" corporate band. But we, get too hot wearing those damn things at summer gigs. We went the bowling shirt route and the Charlie Sheen shirt look with khaki pants for a bit. Anyone have any cool ideas to get us through the summer - but, they have to be matching outfits, it's kinda our trademark.

See www.nachomen.com if at all interested.

Thanks,

Search for 'Dye Sublimation' fabric printing clothing suppliers using moisture wicking fabrics.

You can do all-over patterns, photo-realistic images, whatever... It's not your father's silk screen anymore.

You can design any image you want INTO (not on) a fabric: many offer polos or long sleeve polo not just Ts, most have UV protection, many have cooling additives like micro-jade.

There are also blazers and pants made with cooling moisture wicking fabrics, if you want to go for a more traditional look, with a plain wicking shirt.

There's always the RHCP route, sunscreen and socks. Not exactly family friendly...

You could wear medical scrubs and carry a guitar onto the stage on a stretcher. Or, the singer.

I live in a pretty damn hot place (Northeastern Brazil) and we go all Jerry Garcia, blue Levi's, boots or sneakers and tees.
