Well, I did it! I first went to the barber and they were cool about it but some guy in the chair next to me looked aghast.I defused that by telling him I play the bagpipes
Next, I went to a suit shop to look for a shirt - they didn't have what I was looking for and not a word. I then went to a discount clothing store and again, not a word. Finally, I went to a sandwich shop that I regularly frequent and one of the guys there asked about my "outfit" - he wondered if I was off to play a concert (I'm also a classically trained musician). Other than that, he didn't seem too concerned about my "outfit" (although I think he thought it was weird). Needless to say, I survived.
