oh snap.....

For your line, GQ style might be better. My Fresh-off-of-school workplace was damn strict. People were warned if they wear those "funny" ties on Aprl Fools day. I think I only have blk. navy, blk w/ stripe, navy with stripe type of suits. I do have gray pants similar to yours, but no sport coat.

Heck, Now i wear what I want. I work at home.

Hahaha no- there's a reason I never wear traditional suits.

I'm a musician for a reason.

But I was in London that day for a session, and had a meeting with a few big wigs from Sony, so I couldn't show up in jeans and a tank.

I was in mid-high end automotive sales (car sales) during my school years. Those guys were also really strict on wearing suits, cuff links, and 6 ways to tie a neck ties.

Speaking of suits, I am thinking of buying one off of George Zimmer's new company when it opens. If you remember, he got kicked out of his own company (Men's Warehouse) few yrs back.

If I may ask you my friend..What kind of music/style are you performing ?

Love a man in a suit.. a fitted suit. #1 on my list of qualities.

As far as what I'm contracted for (film scores/commercial jingles)- it can be any style. I've been playing piano and guitar for over 20 years (started when I was 5) so whenever I'm given an assignment or sheet music to track for my client- I'm comfortable sight reading no matter the style.

When it comes to producing for various artists on the UMG (universal music group) catalog- I feel more comfortable writing rock/pop rock.

So, to take the attention off of the one looking for it for just a bit...

Where can I listen to some of your work?

I write most under a stage name.

I'm an introvert, despite my trolling moments at times on this forum. (I neglect other forms of social media)

However- a few other producers and I are recording a demo under the working project "the sugar skulls" which I will put my name to it, so when those demos are released, I'll post a link here on OT

I gotcha. Looking forward to it! I enjoy listening to up and comers!

Yeah, most of what pays me (and pays well) I'm not particularly proud of that's why as an artist, I don't associate my name to it. But it's what sells.

A lot of the contracts have proprietary information too, since most artists claim to "write their own music" but I can assure you- they don't. It's people like myself who take the money but don't want the fame who do.

Some song writers are totally opposite though. But I'm ok with a modest living as long as I get paid.

The project (the sugar skulls) would be my first real crack as an "artist" - so hopefully it goes well! Then you all can say "that dude used to troll the bimmerpost forums"

As long as it's not Justin Bieber, I think we can forgive.

Unless... Please, no...

LOL.

I can assure you, the biebs is not one of them. He's under Island def jam.

I only have contracts with universal, time warner and the Walt Disney company/ESPN.

Conclusion- Y'all are a bunch of haters.

Not hating, but you are only supposed to use the top button on a suit like that.

Did someone say Justin Beiber?

For one, it looks odd, and can also restrict your movement being a fitted suit. Also, when standing the jacket should be buttoned and then unbuttoned when sitting. So when getting up from a seat, it is less cumbersome to only fasten the one button.

This is correct. For suits with 2 buttons, only the top should be buttoned. For suits with 3, the top 2 should be buttoned. The jacket should be unbuttoned when sitting and buttoned when standing.
