So tattoos equal trying to be a metalhead?

The one issue that I have with Shannon Moore, and it's a minor one, is that he tries to posit himself as some kind of authentic punk- the way he dresses up is not at all representative of the current punk community, by the way- yet he makes music with Jeffy freaking Hardy in that excruciatingly awful Peroxwhy?gen endeavor. There's nothing even remotely punk about that band. I'm not really sure how I would classify it, but it's certainly not punk.

Well, its his persona. Can't really judge the way he likes to carry himself as being a tool.

I guess that is credible enough to be an issue but I don't think that is enough to rage at the guy.

Have I raged at the guy, or is this more directed at someone else? If I've raged on the guy, I'm definitely not aware of it.

I am, too. But even if I wasn't, I'd still find fault with it. It would be like finding out during Thuganomics-era Cena that John spent his time in the back singing along to Kenny Chesney records.

I still don't get why this is such a bid deal. Its a gimmick of his and the way he likes to carry himself. How do you know he isn't a fan of metal and punk rock?
