The Mellotron Group

I really cannot think of anything lessrelevant to a live performance  
than the way anyone is dressed.  (Unless it's central to the show, I  
suppose)

Then you must never have worked with an orchestra or played a live gig  
in a band or ensemble.

I did an orchestral session some years ago and requested the players  
dress formal.  Normal attire in the studio is business casual, but it  
was an evening session and I had clients present. I thought it would  
be fun. Afterwards, my concert master complimented me on the strategy  
saying how well the orchestra performed and how attentive and engaged  
the players were for the recording. Dress is irrelevant?


Sorry for the brevity as I am replying from a remote region of  
iPhonekstan.
