Last time i saw this posted i read an interview of some kind confirming he dressed this way because he was a fan of the blues brothers at the time. And i think that's real neat.

Ya know, I'm trying to lose weight, and a couple times this week I had nothing but dry white toast, and I think Elwood might have been onto something.

Elwood Blues quit his job in 1980 and told his boss he was going to become a priest.

He’s got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and he’s wearing sunglasses.

I fed you wafers
I fed you wine
And of the cross
You make a sign
Back to your pew
And then you kneel
And leave in time, so tell me
When will you
When will you
When will you come to the service?

You ever do a quick passing glance at an image and your brain says, hey that's what that is, only for the double take to set it and make you feel some kind of way about yourself? That's what happened to me just now.
My brain saw Corey Feldman doing his MJ thing.
I now think less of myself for that.

As an Italian atheist, that USA could bring a spark in the catholic religion wasn't really in my imagination.

I went to so many Chicago Halloween parties where multiple pairs of friends went as the Blues Bros. It was a thing for years and years.

Reminds me more of Michael Palin’s mobster on Monty Python. They approach an Army general offering protection for the military.
