Jumpsuits Drycleaners????

Post by EPFAN1972 »

Ok I'm sure this was discussed once but I would like to know how the suits were cleaned on tour. I mean he wore the same suit almost every night in 77. So did someone go to the local dry cleaners with the jumpsuit. Crazy question just something I've always wondered. Thanks

There were dry cleaner runs done, I'm sure.

Thank you for posting this.

Unfortunately, that post seems to indicate Erhan took the photo. He did not.

Both image and caption are from this Sioux Falls fan, who posted it here:

It is really important to make note of where things come from on the internet. Otherwise, you look really bad.
