Bummer, you could ask if they had considered upping their game. Actually dress in dresses and hose without regular clothes and for the ugly part, add some kiss style makeup. Bet they never considered it. Perhaps could be sold as a way to really stand out more and perhaps get more gigs for the show. It's music AND showmanship. Many musicians only think of the music and not the show.
Ask them to think of the possibilities
-- colorful veils or colorful wigs, each different
-- fan contest for $50 or $100 for best ugly makeup; or up on stage with them for a number
-- each of them wearing different colored hose
-- search known rock/grunge/metal groups for ideas
-- scarves on instruments
-- not to mention jewelry
Don't ask, will never know...
