Hey everyone, need a fancy dress idea. The theme is any musician from any time. Any ideas would be appreciated. The only ideas i've had so far are one of David Bowies many personas, a member of Kiss or Chuck Berry. Any ideas welcome, no matter how stupid or difficult to replicate... Cheers in advance.:cool:

Gary Glitter would be funny. Need to consider "public reaction" though. :smt083

Rules

- Has to be a real musician or highly comical
- If not a good costume idea one needs to be added at the bottom of each post.

E.G.

Banjo Duellers

Geroge Micheal

that doesn't start with girls silly :rolleyes: Not sure about this derail of Binky's thread, you sure it's a good idea Binky or should we take this elsewhere :p

Maybe we should change the rules slightly, so tis a musician that starts with the last letter of the last word?

So you said Spice Girls, I say Shakira?



Oh and Binky, what about dressing up as Elton John hehe

Remember the cover to The Beatles Abbey Road? They are walking one behind the other on a zebra crossing.

Well - Red Hot Chilli Peppers did the same thing - except they were wearing a single sock each to protect their...bits.

Cheap, easy and but you would need to be quite brave...



Alternatively, have a look for photos of Freddie Mercury - he wore some outrageous costumes and some that may be possible to clone for fancy dress.

The common theme is that they are all singers / musicians that will provide a funny outfit for you to put as much effort in to as you want :D

I only suggested them cos that's what I'd attempt if I was dressing up as a singer :smt083

Maybe i misinterpreted them as all being of a different ethnic origin and therefore harder to replicate. My bad.:D

I haven't no. I've heard it's quite funny though. On the earlier note what about 2pac or Fifty cent. I could make a mean rapper ;)
