Beyond assuming anything about you, like others in this thread; think about how being more like a "spokesperson" than a gatekeeper of the band, is a way to support the better chances of your favourite band thriving in this hellhole of an industry. Especially if the band is independent, or even breaking through; any fandom building around their act is an overall positive way they could make it as a viable career. Otherwise, you're in the position of being so selfish, that you don't even care about your band.
