"Although my public/ performance personna is consistently this one thing, this t-shirt is indicative of what'd it be like to have sex with me." At least that's how I interpret that Durst photo, and the Duff one, too.
So Durst has sex like a Smiths fan and Duff loves like Motorhead.
Classic post.

I can't seem to find a freeze frame anywhere, but my favorite mismatch is the Public Enemy t-shirt on Donnie Wahlberg in the New Kids on the Block "Step by Step" video:

i always thought it would be funny if some trendy new act wore the shirts of really naff bands like sublime or hoobastank.
― max arrrrrgh, Tuesday, 22 June 2010 18:02 (thirteen years ago) link
hate this q so much
surprise, very few musicians only want to rep for music that sounds like what they do. because, shocker, musicians like lots of different kinds of music. WOW INCREDIBLE THEY MUST BE POSING BY WEARING SHIRTS FOR BANDS THAT DON'T SOUND LIKE WHAT THEY DO.

No one said anything about "posing" -- I thought this was just a thread for pictures of musicians in other bands' shirts.

yeah I know it's just it always feels like this implicit "no way Avril likes the Ramones, after all she sucks!" vibe (we had a huge throwdown about that way back) and while I am a little sympathetic to the position "a person should only wear a band/musician t-shirt if they actually like that band/musician" I am deeply unsympathetic to the position "a person whose music I hate couldn't love music I like, it is at the least very unlikely"

Chuck Schuldiner from Death in a Blondie shirt. No doubt his stylist made him wear it.
I think it's a sex code thing more than an overt statement of affiliation with any particular band/ genre. It's like they're saying, "Although my public/ performance personna is consistently this one thing, this t-shirt is indicative of what'd it be like to have sex with me." At least that's how I interpret that Durst photo, and the Duff one, too.
two examples from this thread
This thread would be a lot more fun if it it was less "LOL FAMOUS PERSON DOESN'T KNOW AS MUCH ABOUT BAND AS ME BECAUSE THEY ARE TOO BUSY BEING FAMOUS" and was more "Hey, isn't this neat?"
We're all adults, the fact that one of the jocks likes your favorite band should have stopped bothering you, like, freshman year of college.― Whiney G. Weingarten, Tuesday, April 17, 2007 5:47 AM (3 years ago) Bookmark Suggest Ban Permalink

Well, one of my friends was deeply into tepid indie bollocks, but regularly wore a t-shirt that proclaimed "McFly are actually quite good"!!!!!!!!!
And, what's more, he wasn't being ironic!!!!!! He actually quite liked McFly!!!!! That's why wore so often!!!!!!!
So there!!!!!!!
