Show us your Blues Brothers Costumes!

Syd-Blues · 27th Jul 2008, 08:12 PM

Wow, glad to see you're back. Hope everything is ok with you and your mother.

ElwoodJones · 28th Jul 2008, 07:44 AM

Everything's been great ( lately) Syd, and dont worry, I just noticed that PM Sitting in my Inbox. i`ll be getting back to you very shortly. But now as Promised.. pics i can`t remember whether or not i posted!

Vinnie Blues · 28th Jul 2008, 08:05 AM

Nice pics EJ ! Looks like you're real in the spirit - and in the music too ! Keep going !

ElwoodJones · 28th Jul 2008, 09:36 AM

D'oh.. Forgot the Briefcase and bluesmobile!

Vinnie Blues · 28th Jul 2008, 12:41 PM

Man, you have the perfect briefcase and the cuffs !!! Great !!!

And a nice car too. Any car can be the Bluesmobile in one's heart (I feel the same for my Cadillac, nicknamed 'the Bluesmobile', sometimes 'good ol' girl', sometimes 'old mama' LOL Everyone's laughing but I don't care. Let them talk !)

The cylinder-shaped object, on the last 2 pics, what is it ? Just being curious.

ElwoodJones · 28th Jul 2008, 12:47 PM

That.. would be the only imperfection

the handle of the spotlight is stripped. I tried multi tasking and putting those into a PM.. Apparently.. that didn`t work

But all in all, its a very good car, Does everything a Bluesmobile should

Lets just say me and my bluesbrother have gotten out a few jams with that car.

EJ

Everything a Bluesmobile should ? OMG, including vaulting over a drawbridge ?

Just kidding.

Be careful, drive safely, like Maurie Sline told Elwood in BB2K.

Thanks for the explanation anyway. I got it now. This car is indeed a Bluesmobile in spirit - that's the most important. What about grace it with these nice 'BDR 529' plates you can find on eBay ? That would give a definitive BB touch to it.

ElwoodJones · 28th Jul 2008, 01:07 PM

Oh I`m thinking about it.. but I have to say.. I lucked out with my actual plates. CT has been going back to plates without any ring to them. 396 WVL and BDR 529 have that ring to em

Blueblood · 28th Jul 2008, 01:08 PM

The Brownsmobile...

I dunno...

I guess that could work since the boys were always in deep s***..!

Oh Blue, you're really like Jake - 'really up sh*t creek' : I guess it's what you meant ?

I really like you, man !

hmm... That gave me an idea... Bluesmobile speedboat!.. certainly would get up that creek a whole lot faster

EJ

Vinnie Blues · 28th Jul 2008, 01:33 PM

Yeah, faster than down the river, for sure !

Eh, Blueblood ? I remember your Bluesmobile knows a lot about going up creeks (okay, large creeks like the Ohio River... okay, okay... LOL)

Guys, I love your company, but I gotta go to another bed than that of a river... Hubby calling ! LOL

Have a nice evening - will find you back here tomorrow.

Odupianist · 29th Jul 2008, 09:04 AM

Let's see if this works...

I'm the Jake in the picture, my buddy Scotty is Elwood. My roommate did the photo shoot for his portfolio...

Vinnie Blues · 29th Jul 2008, 11:52 AM

Odu, you bear an uncanny resemblance with the real Jake ! Especially the one when you're checking your watch.

Well done and nice pics ! Keep up the good work, you and your pal !

(The B&W are great, real great ! Have always thought B&W suited the brothers anyway...)

Syd-Blues · 29th Jul 2008, 09:39 PM

Looking good, man.

bluesharp · 30th Jul 2008, 04:12 AM

Love b/w photos as well and your looking good my man!!

Odupianist · 30th Jul 2008, 11:46 AM

Thanks everyone for the input. I posted some of the better pics. Here's one we took when I was fiddling with BB Private during the session for photo ideas (hence that last picture of us standing at stairs)...

Jo_Pierce · 30th Jul 2008, 07:15 PM

These are GREAT, Odupianist! Vinnie's right! You pull it off very very well!

Neat!

flcl64 · 3rd Aug 2008, 12:03 AM

Vinnie Blues · 4th Aug 2008, 06:02 AM

Nice pics of you and your avatar ! Keep up with the good work !

Bismo · 4th Aug 2008, 04:33 PM

New photo of Buster and I, followed by one of us with ElwoodJones and our Bluesmobile, both taken over the weekend at the Foxwoods Blues Brothers show! (Review on that posted in The Blues Brothers thread.)

And with ElwoodJones:

A few other photos from the weekend (sorry, no show photos, though one of Zee signing) at my Flickr site.

ElwoodJones · 4th Aug 2008, 05:02 PM

wow.. Those pictures came out well!.. Only one i got on my camera that was really worth posting was this one

Adam

Blueblood · 4th Aug 2008, 05:36 PM

WHOAH BISMO! SWEET PICS!!!

Awesome night I can well imagine..!

Bismo · 4th Aug 2008, 06:15 PM

Actually, I really like that pic, Adam, thanks! Make sure you check out the other Flickr photos, there's a couple more of you and the lovely Ashley there!

And yes, Leo, it was indeed of course! (But no worries, we'll manage to do ourselves proud in Florida in about 8 weeks... be afraid!)
