The Kimono's are Back: Orchestra Uniform

[Tombstone Mountain]

OK, the pics are out and the orchestra is wearing Kimono's. WTF does this mean to you??? If you've not seen it, just go to OTLS Forum under Breaking News by Fountain of Syrinx. Thanks Hermy---So awesome!!!

 

Does it plant some seed of hope for a return to the glory days of Rush?

 

Does it even move the needle???

 

[Tombstone Mountain]

I gotta admit, this is not the direction I expected

 

HOWEVER

 

I am intriuged

I believe this era of Rush is based on the novel Open Kimono, by Seymore Hare.

[Jomboni]

I thought this was another joke post until I looked at that thread... which is also another joke post, but then halfway through there actually is a picture of somebody from the orchestra in a kimono, standing in front of one of Alex's amps.

 

I think it looks cool!

Wouldn't just top it all if Neil goes retro and brings back the mustache?

I'm really kind of floored they went that direction--totally unexpected!!!

Can we get an official source on the photo?

I still don't think it's legit. I know I've done my share of joke threads in the past, but only every once in awhile. The proliferation of them lately is a bit annoying IMHO, for whatever that's worth... probably not much.

 

And even if it is legit, my point still stands...

There is no photo, this is all a gimmick. Although it would be cool if they brought back the Kimonos, there is no proof that it is true.

[losingit2k]

Yes this would be really cool if The orchestra all wore Kimonos!

The Mighty Dudad very effectively provided proof: http://www.therushforum.com/index.php?show...dpost&p=2717482   And Tombstone, if the orchestra members really were wearing kimonos, this topic title would be a spoiler, visible from the main page. Just saying, in case you come across an actual spoiler down the road.

[CygnusGal]

Regardless of whether its true or not, it looks very cool. I looks steampunk-ish and I like the Watchmaker gears. If this is indeed true, very cool. If not, very creative and very cool.

 

Either way, very cool.

 

Thanks!

Spoiler alerts check!!!   Ummm...your avatar always looks so angry--is this indicative of your mental state most of the time? Do you have a happy one you could rotate in there, for us sensitive types?   Maybe like various muppets singing a song (walter is great and exudes cheer)?   I mean, before I came along, you were happy sometimes right?   Just axin'...
