I think I've got it now. Pleated parachute pants with a tie-died chalice t-shirt proclaiming my embrace of the eight principle in big, pink neon bubble letters. And a smile. Is that about right?

If you're a groupie and proud of it, by all means wear slogan T-shirts; if you're cool, do not. I am thinking back fondly to my own groupie days at GA in the mid-90s: I had the long hair, the chalice pendant -- it's true! -- and the T-shirt proclaiming "how deeply you're connected to my soul." Yes, back then I didn't know how to let my own inner irony out; earnestness was the coin of the realm, and I paid it dearly. Of course, this year you'll see me at least once or twice sporting promotional polo shirts, but otherwise it's slogan-free for me! (I keep the groupie and the irony deeply buried these days. It helps me stay balanced in the wonderland that is GA.) There is only one rule to dressing cool at GA: Do not, under any circumstances, wear an oversized T-shirt with a slogan.

He'll be directing a choir or something like that. You guys have similar senses of humor and I think would really enjoy each other.

Those are good (the DH will be in jeans), but wear the lightweight, cool ones. Not the thick ones! (too hot)? I would opt for a polo shirt over an ill fitting t-shirt! RS - NOOO. Several times a week I see some young woman between the ages of 16 and 24 wearing her hair in a SIDE ponytail. And don't get me started on the acid wash skinny jeans with scuffed YELLOW ballet flats. Egads. The 80s "remix" doesn't seem to have hit the non female population so much. I think the guys wearing parachute pants now were wearing also wearing them ten years ago.
