Wearing a kilt to a gig.

[Phogfan86]

If you're a good bassist, you could wear... one of those inflatable sumo wrestler outfits and nobody would care.

OK, I would gladly pay a cover to see that.

There are other bassists here, BassClefB, for example. I'm sure their input would be useful for you.

[McFarkus]

Let us know how it comes out!

If i can wear a kilt in a metal band, then i don't see why not for grunge. yes, its different music but who cares its not the looks that matter.

I echo the above advice--let us know how it goes!

Musicians are a creative bunch and you will just add to that creativity. Wear it.

[O'Callaghan]

You can get away with wearing anything you like on stage. I was the singer in a rock band and used to wear black and gold tiger print trousers or a similar pair with black and yellow candy stripes. The beauty of it is that it's not even expected to be clothes that you would wear to walk down the street. A kilt is tame in comparison. Now maybe if you got a kilt in a tiger print ...???

Go for it! I've worn a kilt to every gig we've played since last summer. The experience has been all good! Our bass player has recently started wearing one too and both the drummer and sax player are hinting they may join the rabble... Kilt on!!

Something I didn't realize until right now, but I am going to be on a stage and prefer to play a little close to the edge of the stage, just to be closer to people. Maybe I should think about wearing something under my kilt. Not sure how many people are going to want to catch a glimpse of what I keep under the kilt.
