The Yngwie Malmsteen tour wardrobe drinking game

To be honest, we haven’t figured out yet exactly how the game should work. But here’s what we have figured out through countless hours of methodical research.

1. Yngwie Malmsteen, 80s hair-rock badass and pioneer of the neoclassical/eurometal/ three-headed-dragon-defeating guitar movement, hasn’t changed his wardrobe essentials since 1984.
2. Evidence of this can be found in the Tour Photos section of Yngwie’s site, with pics as recent as 2008. Yes, there are a lot.
   
3. The Open-To-The-Navel Puffy Shirt and Way-Too-Tight Black Leather Pants combination is extremely potent, musically and most likely otherwise. A wardrobe malfunction on this guy could wipe out the entire front row.

So…how to make a game out of this?

You could go the easy route, head to the site with your friends and simply take a drink every time you see Yngwie wearing what we like to call his Fingertap Armor. (Not recommended for liability reasons.)

Or you can take the long hard slog approach: Scour the site looking for the one or two times Yngwie is caught sans uniform. It’s like Where’s Waldo with a lot more sweat and hair (and sweat).

Either way, enjoy the Malmsteen.
