does someone out there have that picture of all the suits lined up on a rack? or any other pics of them in the suits minus the gilded palace record cover?

my band is playing a halloween show as the burritos and we're trying to figure a way to look the part.

for me it's easy, i just need to paint some dinos on a sweatsuit...

Isn't that one with the suits on the rack someone's avatar on here?

Tamara, I believe that would be Russ Tkac who has that avatar.

Gram’s Nudie suit was (may still be?) in the Country Music Hall of Fame as part of an exhibit on Country Rock that also includes Emmylou’s black Gibson J-200 with the inlaid rose, as well as one of Rusty Young’s steels, all very cool!
I never noticed in any of the pictures, but Gram’s suit sports two naked women on the lapels!
:whoa:

If I recall correctly, some of Gram's Nudie suits...maybe his Burritos one and one or two of the other Burritos' ones...were destroyed in a fire.

I have really good pics of the front and back of Sneaky's if you want 'em - just email me.

It's interesting that the one missing from the "on the rack" picture is the "red" suit, which Michael Clarke ended up wearing, but I think there are a couple pics of Gram wearing as well.

red suit with subs

Gram was apparently wearing the red one when Miss Pamela (Pamela Des Barres) of the GTO's first saw him and Chris Hillman out on the town.
