What is he wearing?
By Tim Martin
Eastern Illinois University
Ezra Li Eismont and his band, katfive, really wanted to make a good impression with this journalism crowd.
How bad? He made a suit made of newspapers. Eismont said the suit took two nights and four newspapers to make. A glossy exterior was established by sealing up the suit with packaging tape.
But this isn't just basic work. He has collars and pockets.
There is a downside, though.
"It's a little stiff," said Eismont, whose four-member band is based out of Oakland.
The other three members are also in on the act. One has a newspaper jacket, another a T-shirt. The last guy is just dressed like a reporter.
Eismont said his band plays rock, electric, hip hoppy-stuff with vocal tunes. Yep.
The suit will live on beyond tonight. A professor from Michigan State took Eismont's business card, and she plans to buy the suit.
