Just saw this bro front row at a MSTRKRFT show wearing a MSTRKRFT mask.
Kinda reminded me of the past. One time some lil altbro wore a mask of theirs, and then some time when an authentic bro wore a non-golden mask to prove that he was their biggest fan.
Still trying to figure out if it is ‘kewl’ to wear a band’s t-shirt to their concert/show. Feel like it was something that entry-levels do, but I think I might start making my own t-shirt that proves that I am a more authentic fan than every1 else.
For example, I might wear a shirt to a Panda Bear concert that says ‘We’re bros who are comfy in nautica.’ Or might wear a shirt to a MSTRKRFT concert that says ‘I listened to the one bro in ur band when he was in Death From Above 1979.’ Or might wear a shirt to a Metallica concert that says ‘h8 napster, yall!’ Or maybe will wear a shirt to a Coldplay concert that says ‘I used 2 rule the world Gwyneth Apple Yellow.’
Does n e 1 remember that song ‘Romantic Rights’ by DFA1979? Was music more authentic back then? Do u think the MSTRKRFT bro should have stayed in that band
Does n e 1 know the difference between DFA1979 and DFA Records?
Kinda wonder if it is more difficult to make a MSTRKRFT mask or a Daft Punk hemlet. Might go to a design school/technical college.
Need 2 make more arts + crafts to prove that I am a high level fan of bands that I ‘love.’ Need 2 do more 2 set myself apart from all of the ‘mainstream losers’ who go to see bands just because they think it makes them cooler and they have nothing better 2 do.

‘The band was originally named “Death from Above”, a name which appears on their first released recording, a self titled EP release. The duo changed their name after a legal dispute with New York City dance music label DFA Records, with the members of Death from Above 1979 denouncing LCD Soundsystem’s James Murphy in messages on their website. Death from Above had been a working name of Murphy’s prior to the 11 September 2001 attacks.’ via wikiwiki
doen anyone got a link to the message dfa1979 posted saying alot of bitchy stuff about james murphy?

I miss DFA1979, I never got a chance to see them live, and both members new projects are not as interesting as DFA1979. Maybe I should go to a Lightning Bolt concert and become inspired. Then I would try to make a noise rock band with discernable vocals to replace DFA1979.

I wonder about “Loving” bands. They’re made of people. Isn’t being that into people sycophantic?
Feel like I’m missing something/arrogant/worshipable myself.

yall should blog about SALEM. they made a music video where an old lady is extreamly scared of a naked black chick ‘gettin crunk’ all up on her car. if thats not conceptual-core idk wat is. seems meme-worthy to me. not to mention i’ve seen a bundle o’ blogs talking about them (via hypemachine)

mstrkrft is the most underwhelming live show ever. the new record is horrendous.
if you like them, you’re dumb.

You all should worry about better things that how you look when ur expressing you love/hate for anything. F*ck cool and have fun. why don’t you all go back to American Apparel and keep buying your “cool”, and Please buy a Helvetica letter shirt to show how much you love wall street!

I don’t care how old this post is your writing sucks and almost every comment seems to be from some loser who cares about being authentic. I can’t believe you people actually care about wearing certain shirts. Go to a show to enjoy music you stupid fuck
