Bruce's stage costumes over the years

[Ruflux]

His Maiden England look probably easily takes the cake, at least for the reunion era. I feel like the other ones are either a bit too over-the-top (like the SBiT trousers) or then a bit too simplistic, like his TBOS outfit. Although I did like the BNW setup too, it was simple but very effective with the denim vest and all.

The '97 AOB tour shorts are easily the worst piece of outfit Bruce has ever worn on stage (I excuse him for the SOT outfit, it was the 80's afterall...). But this... I mean, really? Looks even more ridicolous with leather jacket.

That's pretty bad in a "don't know where to look" way.

But A Real Live Tour was pretty bad, lonsdale knee length sweat shorts, wife beater, couldn't be arsed shaving. He looked like a bum.

His Maiden England outfits were awesome. TBOS was ok I guess, but I think he could have gone more theatrical. At least on TBOS, he should have had some sort of feathers and shells. Maybe a shaman-ish touch for IESF.

Agreed.

I quite like the FOTD tour outfit and have a soft spot for the AMOLAD one too.

Oh, and @Kalata - what about the Powerslave masks and the monkey outfit?

Yeah, they are with TBOS stage costume, but the main outfit was the sweatshirt ! And his outfit for the HBTN with the rope was also cool !

Here are some more pictures of Bruce stage costumes for TBOS tour !

- the intro for the IESF

Good video and performance from the band ! Bruce has his most metal look there : with that black leather, it looks awesome !

I thought that was far for inspired than the crocodile hunter image of the last 20 years. Bruce resembles a bank manager these days, much less a rock star.

Jesus, he just needed to grow a tash & change his name to Freddie.

Why does that Bruce solo pick remind me of Axle Rose?

Imagine axe hole trying to dress like that with his current physique

No!! I refuse to do it!

 

[Octillus]

Gotta be Brave New World - denim far past the point of it being cool, dripping with sincerity.

 

[Brigantium]

I quite like the DoD masked one, although think he should have gone for a really sinister Venetian carnival style mask. The mouthless ones like Ghost currently have or one of the beaked nose ones.

 

[Brigantium]

Actually, I should just be put in charge of Bruce's stage masks, I have loads of ideas for them.
