Ok. I'm trying to stay calm here. Deep breaths. Count to 10. Picture the happy place, etc...

But whats with this thing with all the little skinny nerds in glasses and bad hair suddenly wearing Guns shirts? It happened over here (Scotland/the UK) a couple of years back - the rock look was in fashion and all the girls High Street fashion stores were selling wee girly Motorhead t-shirts. It was actually kind of cute. But lets, face it, none of them even knew who Motorhead were...

Now the same thing is happening with GNR. University term has just started. Sad wee nerds who were getting beat up in high school just a few months ago try to reinvent themselves for uni - grow the hair longer, buy the Doc Martins and german militarty jacket. And now, apparently, this 'uniform' also includes the GNR shirt.

None of these geeky, stammering speccy little tossbags know anything about GNR other than Sweet Child and maybe Paradice City.

Whats going on?

Make it stop.

Do you actually know for sure that these guys don't know anything about GNR? Or do you just want to be able to tell people what they can and can't wear, and to be able to handpick GNR's fanbase based on looks?

What I want to "make it stop" is the assholes who are offended by people wearing shirts advertising a band that makes good music.

Why do you care? Do you feel being a GnR fan defines who you are and thus they devalue that?

I dont care who wears the shirts, Im probably the biggest GnR fan I know and I hardly wear the t-shirts. Who cares.

Ya know, alot of these kids may actually be GNR fans.
My son is 20 and in college, he was raised on GNR music and is just as much a fan as I am.
My 15 year old daughter also loves GNR.
So age has nothing to do with liking GNR, and someones looks has nothing to do with how much they like GNR, thats just crazy! Roll Eyes
I say GO PEOPLE wear those GNR tees.  ok

For some reason many 'fans' go thru this phase of "i hate it how people wear the same t-shirts as me cos im obviously not as original as i thought"... at the end of the day who cares!!!!!!

I own a few band T-shirts, Aersomith and Guns n Roses, two bands Id say im as big a fan as u can be, but I also have a motley t-shirts, Kiss, Oasis, and Im a way lesser fan of them!!

The worst one is the Ramones at the moment but its cool asking the owner of the shirt their fave song as so many dont know a single one.

I'd noticed the same thing at uni too although I wouldn't say they were nerds or anything, but it's just a general observation that I've seen a lot of people in GNR shirts recently girls and boys but it's always the white one with the GH logo on the front. It's probably on special offer at Topshop or something  hihi

Oh come on, doesn't anyone remember that scene in Can't Hardly Wait (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0127723/)?   The scene where the nerd is transformed into a cool guy through the rockin' power of Paradise City is pretty much the whole reason I'm a GnR fan.
