Jim's outfit at the Parsons tribute

[dwight]

Did you guys see it? It's a far cry from his $4 "Somebody Loves me in Birmingham" T-shirt, thrift store pants and no shoes.

Anybody know the scoop?

I saw it. Looked groovy.

It kinda looks like something someone would wear at a Parsons Tribute.

The suit's a tribute to Gram. Here's the scoop:

Ha ha, oh my lord.  I was seriously on the WRONG path when I went looking for Nudie's in Nashville.  Why in the world did I think it was there?  

Anyhow, so, WAS the suit an original Nudie?  If so, who's was it originally?  I've seen vintage stuff on ebay.

Regardless.  It's an excellent suit.  I hope it's his (Jim's), and I hope he wears it ALL the TIME.  I know I would.  :)

But I have to say, I really like the "Someone in Birmingham Loves Me" tshirt.  A lot.

Wow!
glad I posted that on the forum. Very interesting BigBang. I had know idea.
Leave it to Jim to be "intheknow" on that stuff.
Excellent!

I'm sure there are photos of that flying around on the internet, but I can't seem to find them...  ???
