When the hot weather arrived, it arrived with new stage clothes – a vest.
Its almost essential wardtrobe for a musician…I never realized it, but there are so many musician performers who wear a vest. The 1980’s saw the rise of the ‘pirate’ look vest – long hair, earring, no shirt and vest. I wont dare do that in 2017.
In the 90’s the vest kinda died. With the invention of the ‘hipster’ it has risen from the musical grave. Mumford and Sons, Monsters of Men, Edward Sharpe, they all rock the vest.
My vest is from J.Crew. Where’s yours from?
And here it is, during a hot summer show at Oakville’s Fionn MacCools.
