Twenty One Pilots Wear Disguises And Shop For Their Own Fake Merch: Watch
By Katrina Nattress
May 21, 2019
Earlier this month Twenty One Pilots took their Bandito Tour to Mexico, which included two dates at Mexico City's Sports Palace. During their time in the country, Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun noticed an interesting practice: handfuls of local vendors set up shop outside the venue, selling fake TOP merch. Curious about the counterfeit merch's quality and price point, the duo decided to go on a little shopping adventure. In an attempt to not be recognized, they sported customized jackets and luchador masks gifted to them by fans. Only, two English speaking guys wearing disguises is a little suspicious...needless to say, their cover got blown. And quickly.
TOP documented the failed experiment on the latest episode of their Bandito Tour video diary. The fun begins around the 5:15 mark. Watch below.
The band is currently on its second North American leg of tour and last week treated fans in Vancouver, British Columbia, to the first ever set list that included every song off Trench. Check out their remaining tour dates below.
