Really depends on the context in which you met them and are interacting with them.

It's a no when:
>At storage unit/jam space show
>wearing Tool shirt
>qt bassist plays with her band
>after show looking for your friend
>He's sitting behind her in her van talking to some dude
>Hey, what's up, my--
>Oh hey, Tool is one of my favorites, really cool shirt
>Word. Can you get my friend, I gotta go
>Oh.

It's a yes when:
>drinking Bacardi 151 in a public park
>meet up with aforementioned friend and some mental case he hangs out with
>Weirdo says "anon, you like Tool right? They're the best band ever"
>Don't answer just keep drinking
>Weirdo does spoken word Tool lyrics
>He then convinces friend to stare into the sun
>Drink more 151 while friend and weirdo stare into the sun for a good minute
>Black out

This one relates only to dating, specifically, but stay away from getting involved anyone who is a fan of more than one of the following:

Brand New
Ryan Adams
Tori Amos
Bright Eyes

--this is music for "woe is me" self-absorbed narcissistic people who view their inevitable romantic failures as unfair mishaps. They are not emotionally mature enough for a serious relationship.

Agree on Kanye. My mates quote his lyrics all the time like they have any meaning at all. Other than sounding cool. Pisses me off. We are white also. I hate all hip hop/ rap. Except outcast. Love Andrés style. Understated and undeniably cool

Maybe you could convince me otherwise though. ;)
