    Hmm what do you think about this?

    Personally I'm leaning towards 'it's the fans fault if they're that stupid' but I'm not sure if it's irresponsible of the band.

    I agree, it's all on the fans, what I don't get is some of those temp tattoos look near perfect, so they can still be in the video without permanently marking themselves. but the question is: if I ask people to jump off a cliff, am I at fault, or are the people who actually do it???

    Yeah the temp tattoos would cut it I reckon but maybe they would be shunned for not being 'true' fans or something, who knows.

    Both the band and the fans are a bunch of dumbasses.
    The fans are stupid enough to get exploited like this, by perminantly branding themselves and paying to spend time with this bunch of megalomaniacs.
    The band naively thinks they can immortalise themselves by starting a cult. I think they're no better than the Beeb.
    Nothing is permitted, everything is true.

    OK...

    So this band sucks now... a few years back their stuff was awesome. They got all hippy and sing about Africa and rainforests... J effing C Jared Leto, sing about something you actually know about!!!!

    Also, having seen them LIVE, the guy runs around and speaks to the audience SO much, that he does not actually sing the songs and it ends up sounding kak.

    I WAS a huge fan....

    Where's the option for, "Both parties are equally idiotic"?

    Pretty arrogant request from the band, but anyone who follows through only has themselves to blame.
