Now this could happen for various reasons. The most common is your tryign to identify yourself with a particular genre or culture to be accepted whtv. Basically to make other people like you more.

This usually happens when some ****ty music artist of today(Fred Durst for example), wears a "Smiths" shirt(or some other shirt of some band, you , me and everyone else w/an IQ over 3 knows YOU don't listen to), to try to gain "cred" in the current world.
Funny Story. I lived in Glendale, CA, from 01-03, my friend( who was visiting from MICH @ the time & who's liked Depeche Mode since like 1981 & knows practically everything about them & who got me into them)& I were walking up Cahuenga to go to Amoeba Records. We spot this guy who obviously knows **** about Depeche Mode wearing a DM "Violator" shirt. My friend says to him" Hey cool shirt! You a DM fan too?" I swear to god this happened. The guy looks at us,looks at his shirt and says,"Yeah, I love 'Friday I'm in love'(by the Cure), it's my favorite". My friend and I just look @ each other with this blank stare on our faces, and my friend says" yeah, sure you do *******", to the guy, funny as hell.
