Rockers wearing shorts on stage (other than Angus)

[Rocker4Real]

What Rockers, other than Angus, look cool wearing shorts on stage? Sebastian? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlH9h2KyYqA

[TheDeadBastard]

No one. Unless you’re playing a sport men should never wear shorts.

At least Anthrax’s “We wear jams” phase in 80s was mildly funny. The nu-metal cargo shorts era was an abomination.

[roxxxtar]

Rick Allen in the 80s was cool to me.
Though I like Trixter, their drummer wearing Jorts was not cool.

[HueyRamone]

Anthrax
Pantera
Fieldy from Korn
Suicidal Tendencies
Fight
John 5 and Zim Zum in Manson
Tom E. Lee

I always wore either cutoff sweats, shorts or jams on stage during the ‘80s and ‘90s. It was WAY too fucking hot to run, jump around or anything else in jeans. ugh. The main reason why I ALWAYS hated playing live was the heat and that’s even when I was still skinny. LEDs help these days since the old canned lights could give you a suntan if you got within 20 feet of them, but it still sucks.

I only wear spandex or a jockstrap on stage. I do have one band where I wear pants, which I love, as I can have my damn car key and phone on my person.

[MattleyCrue]

Scott Ian wears shorts
Tracii Guns does

Slash always looks the coolest when he has Chrome Hearts leather pants on

[Jason Jennifer Leigh]

Nobody but Angus looks cool in shorts on stage … dress like a rockstar for F sakes or get off the stage.

Joe Hottinger was wearing Hulk blue jean shorts on stage not long ago … he looked ridiculous.

Lzzy Hale wears leather shorts sometimes with stockings and a leather corset … I’m fine with that but not dudes.

[JinglesTheChristmasMouse]

Steve Harris should put on some long pants.

[DangerZone]

That’s a just dumb. I’m retired and it’s been hot AF.

I’ll wear what’s comfortable, thank you.

[SterileEyes1]

Dino Cazares, Tony Campos, and Shavo from System Of A Down are allowed. This is up there with “only Thom Yorke can have a manbun” where very few are permitted to be the exception to the rule.

oh.
In that case, make sure it’s an elastic waistband

[Wiseacre]

I looked into it. I'm good.

[Bono Nettencourt]

The 2 rocker wannabes in my senior HS class were too cool to wear shorts on our Disney trip. I'm sure that they sweated their asses off.

Were they named "TheDeadBastard" and "DangerZone"?

[Sleek]

Obviously Steve Walsh from Kansas.

[Bono Nettencourt]

Well, we all know the answer to "how long" now.

Flake from Rammstein who then gets raped on stage by Til

[LillianRoxyFA]

Who can forget the gift Steven DeLong gives the world in the "Rhythm of Action" video.

Eddie Van Halen did. I can't find this full picture but he is wearing Jams here in this cropped photo.

All anyone needs to know about rockers wearing shorts

[TravisBicklesMohawk]

Anselmo always wears shorts.

In fact, I've never seen the guy in long pants.

[Hellsinkey]

Every other (death) metal band wears cargo shorts on stage. See Obituary etc.

[Rocker4Real]

Are board shorts, and other longer styles, more acceptable? I'd imagine, the shorter and tighter they are the less appealing they might be to their base.

[Sleek]

Nawwwww...only lederhosen and dolphin shorts are acceptable on stage.



Long shorts are pussy shit.
