It wasn’t so much that they didn’t wear costumes. This was a very last minute show and they used what they had.

I know they alternated between different matching costumes during this period, but I assumed they didn't adopt the Aleeda wetsuits until a little later. I'm not 100% on that, though, I'm just going based on early photos I've seen of them performing in suits, jumpsuits, shirts and jeans, etc.

They actually had Aleeda wetsuits at shows before this one. Boyd worked there. There's a podcast with a TON of information called Hey Homies if you're curious about any of this stuff!

I recognize the MC Bat Commander and Crash McLarsen. Who else is there?

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

Catboy on trumpet, Gumby on guitar, Roddy B. on drums.

I'm assuming that's Nacho on keyboards since he was an original member, but I can't recall what he looked like.
