I agree. Except for the 1872 style border thing. I would have rather say the "1871 style border".

Have the guitarist sit on a stool near the back of the stage.

You forgot to mention that he's hidden behind a rack of electronic effects.

How about all the standing musicians who can roam around the stage do silly walks a la Python?

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

I think even Daevid is going to laugh at that one! And I'm pretty sure that Gilly is going to send you a stack of bananas for your birthday!

Construct a wall between the stage and the audience so that the band members are hidden behind it. I think you can make a lot of money if you did that. Trust me no one has done that before...
If not perhaps you could all wear makeup and glammy costumes, and take on persoans such as oh.... say, a cat, a demon, a spaceman and a starchild, you could become millionaires if you did that.... how bout that for originality.

Hire an abstractist painter, make him paint quick sketches on stage (following the rhythm of the music) and when the song reaches its climax, he destroys furiously his works with an hammer
wouldn't that be brilliant?

Boring in quotes guys hahaha now me in my band finally got a real gig and we were all wondering how we would use some stage presence to spruce up the music. Like how PF would use floating pigs and tear down huge walls but not to that extent hahaha we don't have enough money for that....! Now me being the drummer I have a lot as it is just being excited and lie head butting cymbals and standing up and kicking over my stool and sh*t so If you know any it would be more centric towards the bassist and guitarist and singer. Thanks guys

This sort of thing makes me ashamed to be living in Florida, really.

Take heart my friend. Cougar Town more than makes up for it.
