Dressing like a regular joe in hipster venues is going to hurt you. Just like any other subculture, the girls strongly prefer to date within their own tribe (especially in the longer term) and how you look is the no. 1 indicator of whether you belong to the tribe. From their perspective, if you're not dressed hipster or don't have good style (hipster girls have a much greater appreciation for well dressed men than regular girls) you're going to be labelled as someone whose "not cool", and being perceived as cool is of paramount importance to hipsters. The more authentically hipster the girl/venue, the more this is the case.
Screwston, I know you're a big punk/hardcore fan. Next time you're in a hipster venue trying rocking something like a Black Flag tee, slim black jeans and Doc Martens type boots, then try approaching. I guarantee you'll notice the difference.
