Can someone give an opinion that raises a good point as to why it's stupid to do such a thing?
Chizip said:Is it OK to wear a tshirt of the band you are going to see in concert?
yes. when i was at my duran duran concert in nashville i saw people walking around in tee shirts from the 1983 tour and 1993 tour (as well as shirts from the current tour) and i just couldn't help but roll my eyes. are we supposed to bow down and go "oh my god you've been a fan since (insert whatever year is applicable here), you're obviously a bigger fan than me?!"joyfulgirl said:People like to feel cooler than everybody else. The person wearing their ratty old t-shirt likes to feel cool because they have visible proof that they've been a fan a long time, leaving the people who don't wear their t-shirts to the show no choice but to establish a new code of coolness by declaring themselves cooler than the people wearing the t-shirts.
i voted no.Chizip said:10 people have voted that its not ok, yet none of you have spoken up...

just recently i saw an eight year old wearing a classic ac/dc shirt. after i thought how the band members could be his grandfather, i wondered if he actually liked the band or bought it to be cool or something.zoney! said:What is even geekier....wearing "retro" concert t-shirts you have picked up at Wal Mart and wearing them to a concert (like you were EVER old enought to see Floyd in concert).

I really don't think that's why the majority wear the shirts though. I mean, if they are at a Duran Duran concert, they obviously like Duran Duran, so it's not surprising that they have a Duran Duran shirt...and what better place to wear a Duran Duran shirt than to...a Duran Duran concert!
I don't know...I've just never understood why people think it's such a negative thing.

I think that's the point. If you are at a Duran Duran concert or a U2 concert, it should be a given that you like said band or you wouldn't be there in the first place so there is no need to wear a t-shirt advertising that fact. It becomes sort of redundant.
