“Why do our fans wear our shirts? Because they ‘get it’. They get what the mission is. When you get it you want to be a part of it. The best thing about MCR is there’s no elitism, no coolness.
Alot of people I remember in high school, if they were into a band and then the band got big they would immediately stop wearing the shirts, whereas with this band it was kind of the opposite.
They’re not afraid of looking uncool because that was the whole point of it to begin with. you got into this because you were uncool and because it’s five uncool people. ..That’s the point..” Gerard Way on merch.
