Thanks for the comments. I watched a documentry on Keith Richards the other day and that guy had some style!

I quite like Kings Of Leon's look at the mo although the way they use to dress was much cooler.

Too bad these days he looks like an American Indian.

Lyle Lovett deserves a mention, his band often performs in tuxes and look nothing like most bands that wear tuxes because they have to (for high-end wedding gigs etc.)

I also like Yuri da Cunha's style. Here are a few more colorful examples:

This might be more SF-approved, though:

Charlie Watts is the only Stone who dresses well.
Of the mod revival bands, The Prisoners and, later, the James Taylor Quartet did it best, IMHO. Took their cue from David Hemmings in Blow Up - not a parka or target to be seen. Guess Ocean Colour Scene and Kasabian come closest of the more recent batch.
Couldn't find a decent JTQ piccy from the era, so here's them covering Blow Up:

Rafael Sadiq gets a deduction of 1000 points for wearing ******* hideous nashy health nerd glasses, with a possible deduction of another 1000 if they aren't even prescription and he's wearing them to try to look cool. They look shite!

Agree with Interpol:

and Dave 1 from Chromeo has impeccable style:

and, though not a band, Lenny Kravitz.

I'd say that looks pretty peccable to me.

Kravitz was recently photographed in transvestite attire too, knee length wedgie boots and a toga/poncho/dress. Not a man to be emulated if you don't want to court ridicule.
