While I don't disagree, but they still made them look *beautiful*.

My old band did this all-dayer a few years ago with Culture Shock and
The Ozrics. I spent most of the day in a space-suit with a ballet dress
over the top. Perfectly normal attire for that sort of occasion I would
have thought. ;-)
I was a little surprised by some people's reactions like "'kin ell,
mate! What planet do you come from? " etc. from our usual audience.
(dreadlocked, combat-trousered, clummpy-booted festie-goers.)
Go figure!
