Personally I would not wear one, but that is me.
I would suggest not.
No. Best leave it at home.
No. Don't need.

At the risk of stirring the pot........................ GO FOR IT! If you are wearing a formal outfit (P/C) I think it would look great. I have even been known to wear one with my argyle.

I agree with Big Mikey. (Is that safe? ) The fly plaid gives you that extra splash, and since you're dressing up in your finest for the Bard, I'd say pile on the tartan. Tartan Claus, right?

Really, a fly plaid is a bit over the top. Especially for a Burns Supper.
