How to be a Marianas Trench Fan!
Marianas Trench is an excellent punk/emo Canadian band. They play concerts regularly but their shows usually lead to juvenile behavior from fans. This article states how to be a fan of the band, without going overboard.
Steps
1 Listen to the music. To be a fan of the band, you need to be a fan of the music. Listen to their lyrics and understand where the music comes from.
2 Stay who you are. You don't have to become a punk because the music is so. If you happen to be a girly person who loves Marianas Trench's sound, then so be it. You don't have to be punk. It won't make you any more of a fan.
3 Check out their concerts. Chances are the band will be playing somewhere close to you. They occasionally play free shows but if not, you could save up some money. Check out how they sound live and see if it's your type of music.
4 Get to know the band. Josh Ramsay is NOT the only member. Nor is Matt Webb, Mike Ayley or Ian Casselman. Marianas Trench would be nothing without their amazing members. You don't necessarily have to Google-stalk each member but get to know them. Do your best not to pick favourites.
5 Talk with other fans. Check out fan groups or ask around and see if any of your friends are fans.
6 Support the band. Try joining Marianas Trench's fancorps fan group. It's a great way to support the band and get rewards for it. You can also chat with other members and keep up to date with Trench news.
7 Watch 'The Legacy'.
8 Optional, but refer to yourself as a 'Trencher'.
9 Don't call yourself the biggest fan. At concerts, this may lead to fights which will just result in the show getting canceled and you getting injured or arrested. Their are many fans or Marianas Trench because they have incredible music. Don't boast about being the best.
Tips
- Just because the music is emo doesn't mean you have to be
- Don't pretend to be a fan just because you want people to think you're hardcore. Not only is this uncool but it can lead to people referring to you as a poser.
- to a concert, the performances are amazing and much better when seen live.- Join their 'fancorps' group.
- Don't dedicate your life to MT, there are other bands.
Warnings
- Fights have been known to break out during concerts. Be careful.- People may criticize the band and beating them up may be tempting, but relax. Everybody is entitled to their own opinion.
- Don't listen to the music just because you think Josh is cute [even if he is], they have amazing lyrics and vocal talent as well. The band is more than just looks.
- Just because you scream in delight when a song comes on the radio, doesn't make you a wuss. It just makes you amazing.
things you'll need
The CDs: 'Fix Me' & 'Masterpiece Theatre'. 'Marianas Trench EP' as well, if you can get your hands on a copy.
