The experiment has been tried and failed. Hats give a sense of sophistication, style and intrigue. Without them the horns and field percussion look unfinished and ordinary. It actually just looks like a glorified dress rehearsal. Just my two cents. Who determined lack of headwear is a failure? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I agree in the complimentary aspects of helmets, hats, etc., let’s start with getting rid of electronic instruments and amplification first.

But I have learned to love my aero dynamic look lol. First night of boot camp when you get your head shaved, I was already bald so they put me in the chair and made the barber rake the clippers over my skull and brain matter, then I had to do push-ups while everyone else got their hair cut because they thought I was being a smart-### coming there bald. They didn't understand nor care that I started balding back in the 2nd grade LMAO. Jim is bald. He says that grass doesn’t grow on a busy street. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
