HAM EYE FOR THE KILTED GUY.
Ham, as much as I completely respect your opinions, you would have a heart attack if you saw what I have to wear onstage. It goes totally against the "Book of Hamish". I would feel guilty, except that I get paid to do it!!
Jimmy, a couple of points:
First: Our good, but sadly late, friend Tom Manuel tried what you are now proposing over at Tom's Café but, in practice, it did not work out as I simply did not have the time to log on with any regularity. Besides, most of what I suggest or recommend, is nothing more than common sense sprinkled with good taste and a dash of years of experience!
Second: Stage 'costumes' are one thing and street/home wear is something else! I have had to wear some odd outfits when giving dancing displays with the RSCDS over the years - outfits I would never dream of wearing off stage. So, you are exonerated.
