Title: Viking Helmets
Post by: ycartrob on Nov 17, 2005, 12:17 AM
OK Crunk Uniters, my goal was to foot the bill for 2 dozen Viking helmets for the Palace gig, but I couldn't pull it off (express shipping , handling, etc...too $$$$$$$). If I had had the brainstorm last week, then I could have pulled it off.

so, I challenge everyone to get their own viking helmet and sport it to the gig. Try your local costume shop.

and to any of the good folks in da Ville, there's a costume shop called Horner's (on Preston) and they said they did not have a bunch in stock, but could call home base in Indiana and arrange it. I'd try to pull that off, but since I will not be at the show, I can't handle the notion of getting stuck with 24 viking helmets and no where appropriate to wear them (until the next Jacket show I can attend).

Rock on, please.

also good if you live in Minnesota and like painting your face and chest purple and gold...

i almost peed my pants picturing myself going through the drive-thru at Walgreen's with a viking helmet... mostly because i still don't really know how to drive... i'll do it and try to videotape the encounter... a little MMJ-style hidden camera action!

i actually got the chance to wear an authentic one from the nash-vegas show. you have to make sure you get the kind with the hair in back. otherwise it doesn't cut it.

That's why I was looking for a paper solution.  One that could be folded and fit into a pocket.  It wouldn't have the same effect if they weren't kept incognito.
