Teen Gothic

In today’s age goth is labeled as cool somewhat depends or in early 2000s people would get bullied for being from the norm . but in the 80s how was that life like . And I know bands hate being labeled but I’m talking about the bands pov. What did they think a goth was in there time that, that name had a bad rep . How would they be described

The only thing I have conjured a small detail which is funny

Andrew : ME GOTH how ?I wear pyjamas or shorts in my house

That’s was a funny statement from Andrew

Would he think goths wear there garments at home ??

How did bands perceive typical goths in 80s
