How Many Jumpsuits

....do you ETAs have? Or what do you think the minimum is for a reasonably well-established ETA?
It strikes me that 3 is a minimum.
Obviously if you are performing regularly then you can't keep wearing the same costume again and again; it's allright if it's a completely different audience each time but is you have fans following you from show to show, it's good to keep them on their toes with a change of attire!
2 suits? Better, but still you are limited to only alternating them both. If you have a regular booking in the same venue, with a lot of the same crowd coming back they will get to know what to expect to see you wearing pretty quickly.
So I would say at least 3 decent suits for a fairly long-standing ETA would be desirable....
Once you have 3 suits you can relax a little bit, and any more suits you add to your collection in the future is a bonus.

This isn't the tax office so why are you only declaring about a 1/4 of you collection

its up to the person...

1.) Dragon
2.) Red Lion
3.) Blue Swirl
4.) Fringe
5.) Spectrum
6.) Number of Puffy Sleeves (12+ I think)
7.) Speedway Jacket and pants.
8.) Number of Black and White Pants with different color kick pletes. (Anyone just want sell me jacket? LOL)

So you can neverh ave enough. Its great to have few because if you get a lot of same people back to your shows they will get tired of same suits over. I know few have told me back when I started (When you getting new suit? LOL)
