 Long Underwear Bands

After beginning this blog a few years back, I was surprised to keep running across singers and band members who enjoyed performing in their long union suit underwear. And not long after, I discovered bands who actually named themselves after Long Underwear. So today, I kick off my new series, Long Underwear Bands. 

I thought it might be of interest to you first to go back and review performers in their union suits. I've featured them since the inception of Unionsuit Fans in the Limelight, beginning with the Barberi Quartet back on May 4, 2018, clad only in their long red underwear:

And, a month later on June 4, 2018, along came Spike Jones and His City Slickers with all band members marching down San Francisco's Market Street in their union suits:













Soon, other Union Suit Performers were posted in this blog, such as Panic at the Disco, also on June 4th in 2018:

As you can see, only one of the above ensembles used "Union Suit", "Long Johns" or "Long Underwear" in their group name. But some have. And today, I'm proud to introduce, Long Underwear Bands....
