[TPIN] Tux coat

[Michael Anderson]

This is barely trumpet related so hopefully that jerk list admin won't yell
at me, but I need to get a new white coat for orchestra pops concerts and
I'm having trouble finding a good one locally. None of the formal wear
places will sell their rental stock and the only white coats I can find are
just like the one I own which I can't stand.

So, I'm turning to the internet.  I need a good-quality snow white tux coat
- no ivory. Some call this a dinner jacket, but I'd rather have something
more like a tux coat with notched collar. The dinner jacket I have is a
cheap hunk of polyester that has no shape at all. It is also quite stained
from holding a trumpet up against it.. Those stains never come out of this
material and it is disgraceful for me to continue wearing it on stage. :-)

So, if you have a good source for this sort of thing you can turn me on to,
please email me off-list.

Thanks!
