3. Zoot suit riot!!!
Who picks his clothes? And the PADDED shoulders!!!

Call me the "Straight Guy for the K Guy," but he needs some plain Armani...

6. Keith is hawt.
But if I had access to his wardrobe (*snort*) I'd dress him differently. He's making my eyeballs vibrate this evening.

4. It's the Boss Hijack suit
so named because he was wearing it one night when he made a reference to "My Favorite Year."

10. KO needs the padded shoulders
to balance out the, ahem, padded belly.

5. meh
I don't subscribe to teh MSNBC so I'll have to wait to see his suit tonight.

Just the same, I will now express my fondness for the big-lapeled, fat necktie, shoulderpad look of the forties. Zootsuits were/are hella cool.

7. I keep expecting him to stand up and show off...
...an enormous watch chain looping down to his two-tone wingtips. He's the bees-knees, daddio!

13. Nathan Detroit lives!
:rofl:

Yeah, he's making my screen moire a bit tonight too. I love Keith, but tonight he's having one of his "Do not adjust your set--Keith really IS dressed like that" nights.

12. I love him for what comes out of his mouth, not what's draped over his shoulders!
He can wear whatever the hell he likes.

17. Don't get me wrong, I'd watch Keith even if he were naked.
Actually, I'd watch him especially much if he were naked.

14. Have you ever heard the term "traditional style"?
I've still got suits that I bought in the 60's that were popular in the 80's and I could put on tomorrow and not look like a jerk. Popular fashion might change tomorrow, but true fashion concepts extend beyond the decades. I'll put my tired old dress ware up against yours any day of the week. My ex was a fashion whore and ended up tossing most of the crap she bought in the 29 years we were together. I figure I came out ahead.

20. Okie -- I had to turn it on and see what you all are on about
Wow.

Just wow. :rofl:

I think I am going to hop the train and help him out of it :evilgrin: and then burn it so that he can't ever wear that again.

23. Please, let me join you.
I'll strip him and give you the clothes and you can burn them. For what I've got planned, we won't need the clothes anyway.

25. Be Assured
He's only wearing the jacket...every once in a while they shoot him from the side and he's *always* wearing blue jeans. That's a great man...business on top, party underneath!

33. I've seen him wearing a full suit sometimes.
In fact, I much enjoy the "Jeans Nights" when he's not. But that's not all the time.

26. Oh thank you
His wardrobe has been driving me crazy for a while now but never had the guts to say anything. But, yeah...

The big news in Wisconsin is the possible filming here of the new Johnny Depp movie "Public Enemies," about John Dillinger. Maybe Keith is hoping for a cameo.

30. Keith's suit reminds me of one that Trapper John had made
Edited on Fri Feb-01-08 08:48 PM by Greylyn58
on an episode of M*A*S*H. Some local made the suit for Trap, but when he stepped into Henry's office to model it for Hawkeye and Radar, all the stripes went side-ways instead of up and down.

Really funny.

31. Cherry Poppin' Daddy
Their lead singer, Steve Perry, is a spittin' image of what KO must have looked like 20 years ago.



We all know what **they** sang about: Zoot Suit Riot

34. Thicken the eyebrows and you're about right.


At least by then he'd lost the porn 'stache.
