Tell me about times you've worn a band t-shirt in public and the interactions that have stemmed from it.

Here's my story:

>be me
>live in the city
>wearing my black flag nervous breakdown t-shirt
>walking down the sidewalk texting on my phone
>hear a cute girl voice from up ahead: "hey, black flag!"
>look up expecting a qt 9/10 punk gf with a pink mohawk dressed in leather and torn stockings

>Vacationing in Paris

I wear this t-shirt a lot, and people comment on it a lot, always looking through all the moves and finding their favorites etc.
But nobody knows it's related to music until I tell them.

I've been very seriously considering getting a shirt like this.

>>60381352
Every time I see a band popular on /mu/ there will be a group of skinny manlet teenagers wearing those Cal Chuchesta shirts, it makes my skin crawl. 50% of the time one will be wearing a Macintosh Plus shirt or a bootleg Death grips shirt too

-It will stop being funny after you have to explain it to everyone, you'll get an "oh, okay" at best
-Redbubble shirts are shit quality
-You look like an ass when you try to dress "ironically"
>>
>>60381389
Chances are a lot of them are from /mu/. The underage percentage here is most probably quite large. It would be interesting to have a site wide survey where people were honest with their age and such.
But maybe that'd be against the anonymity spirit of 4chan.
>>
>>60381386
so ironic xD
>>
>>60381417
>>60381419
Well yeah, I wouldn't wear it regularly, it would probably only be when hanging out with friends who'd understand. Also considered getting it for a friend as a joke.

it would be impossible to get a representative group to participate, imo. interesting theory.

I'm sure, I remember wanting to kill myself when I saw NMH and hearing kids scream "top kek" and "dank meme bro" in between songs.
Someone did a pretty large survey and the second largest demo here was "under 18". Based on the interactions and "board culture" I'd say /mu/ is easily the lowest mean user age, except maybe /b/

Ughh when I saw Death Grips, someone was wearing a Cal Chuchesta shirt and before the show everyone started to chant "Berine Sanders"

/tv/ is just manchildren, much like /a/
/v/ isn't really that much more immature than the rest of the site (although it is shittier than most of the boars)

I'd say /mu/ is around 2nd place on the underage demographic

ok fine fine i'll tell my fuckin story damnit.

see death grips with my mom.
go an hour early to get good spot.
wearing depression cherry shirt because i saw them two days earlier and it was the only black shirt i had.
see guy i kinda know at front of line, he's /mu/ and cool. dude introduced me to death grips and /mu/ back when i was a piece of shit that only went on /b/, we just never hang out.
i walk up and make conversation, end up scoring sick ass spot at front of line.
he's wearing twin fantasy shirt.
at that point in my life i thought it was shit band.
his friend is talking about swans and meeting the lead singer.
end up getting literally the best spot in the place.
touch MC ride's boot and sweaty hand.
ears still ringing two months after.
too broke to purchase merchandise but some guy lost his hat in the mosh pit on the ground and i picked it up after.

overall 8/10 still wear the hat it's super comfy and i gave twin fantasy a re listen and it's now in my top five.

/pol/ isn't exactly a hub of intelligent of discussion but it isn't an endless spam of "PORN THREAD, GO" and "YOU RAFF YOU RUSE" garbage. There's at least some self-awareness, and some people have a legitimate knowledge of history and politics (though they've mostly moved to /his/ now, not sure if /pol/'s userbase has gotten worse but it probably has)

Is that Neutral Milk Hotel story true? That's fucking awful, I can't believe that. I'm glad I didn't get any of that when I saw them last year. It was all just hipsters and a pretty large amount of old people. Only guy who MIGHT'VE been from /mu/ was this fat guy who was so excited and called Jeff "jeffy" but he didn't drop any memes so he was ok

i had a merzbow shirt but lost it years ago (dont know how or where).
i once go to see this family friend i didnt know to the hospital.
he asks me about the shirt "ah its some dude that makes experimental music"
more questions i explain its just electronic experimentalmusic that sounds like tv static.
guy seems interested and writtes down merzbow.
thats the only time anyone ever talked to me cause of the shirt.

oh, i have a kylie minoise shirt with a ugly bird on it..ive been asked a few times what its about...

at this point of my life i dont give a hell about shirts.. i just use whatever i have near.. and 15 year old underground metal shirts of bands that no one knows about.. like goatvulva.. cause thats what i was into 15 years ago.. in any case.. whats the point of band shirts? making the band free publicity? do we want them to be more famous? do we want people talking to us because we like the same stuff? (thing that does not happen if you have weird taste).. are you teacing the world whats cool? who know who knows.. i just dont care too much of how i look anymore.. id better shower i stink.

I went to the Atlanta show in July I think and it was great.

Does anyone ever notice that whenever you comment on someones shirt or even strike up a conversation about music at all the other person is almost always not enthusiastic about it?

I could start a conversation with someone about their absolute favourite band ever that none of their friends know and they'd be like "Oh you know them haha cool bro"

My Melechesh shirt got two "Hey nice shirt dude!" from random metalheads.

My Dimmu Borgir shirt (the Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia one) made my hipster English teacher throw a fit because it was "disrespectful to women" cause it has a naked chick bound with barbwire on it. Like, fuck, it's got "misanthropia" written on it, it's not aimed at women specifically.

Pretty much my standard compliment to anyone who wears a shirt of a band or artist that I like.
>>
>>60383360
Anything subdued, usually black and white.
I think that a black shirt with grey print looks good with dark denim, I have a lot of non-autistic BM shirts that look cool as hell.
Avoid:
Bright colors
The band name overly prominent
A picture of the album cover
Meme shirts
