Question: Is wearing the shirt of the band you're going to see a faux pas?

No. Stupidest "rule" ever.

Poll failure. All polls should be public polls, with no changes allowed.

Fine, make your own poll with hookers and blackjack if you want

 

[sleewell]

if people want to buy our shirts and wear them to our shows I am totally ok with that.

 

[Chad]

If you are at the show, everyone knows you like the band or you wouldn't be there.

 

[jp_nyc]

I think of it as just showing the band how much I care.

Explain why

Public shaming, obviously.

No, I was in the tragically intelligent program.

Hipsterish bullshit.

Way back when it was normal to buy a concert shirt and change into it at the show. That was part of the fun, seeing all the new shirts in the auditorium and heading out to find the best one at the merch booths.

I love how everything is the hipsters' fault, even if it predates them

What's really cool is wearing some other band's T-shirt to a concert. I'm thinking Rage Against the Machine T-shirt to a Florida Georgia Line show.

Well it's only been a few years since I heard this was a 'thing', and I have concert shirts older than you. And I said hipsterish, FWIW.

The clip in the OP is from 1994. No hipsters then.

It could be a shirt from the band's previous shows, which shows you knew before a lot of others how good the band sounds.
