The boys of 5 Seconds Of Summer is currently opening for One Direction in some of their "Where We Are" concerts, and it looks like they're garnering a following of their own.

Known for their hit song, "She Looks So Perfect," the Aussie pop rock band told Digital Spy about the weird fan gifts they received from "dedicated" followers.

"We don't like to say 'strange,' we like to say 'dedicated.' We level it on the amount of dedicatedness... dedicatedness? Dedication," Luke Hemmings, lead guitarist and vocalist told Digital Spy. "We've had some crazy stuff but I kind of like that, it makes them stand out, I guess. We've been sent strippers... male strippers. That was pretty weird, but we accepted them."

Male strippers aren't the only interesting thing that they remember about their fans. Bass guitarist Callum Hood can easily identify a 5 Seconds Of Summer fan in a crowd.

"The cool thing about our fans is that you can tell which ones are ours. They dress like us," Hood reveals. "They'll wear bandanas and they'll wear flannel shirts tied round their waist and they'll have like different colored hair, so it's pretty cool."

Looks like 5 Seconds Of Summer will get more weird fan gifts in 2015. The group just recently announced the dates for their "Rock Out With Your Socks Out 2015" tour.

Made up of Hemmings, Hood, Ashton Irwin (drums), and Michael Clifford (guitar), the "Don't Stop" group will kick off the series of concerts in Dublin on May 28 next year. They will wrap up the tour's UK leg in London on June 13.

In addition, the Aussie band will drop by Belfast, Glasgow, Newcastle, Leeds, Birmingham, Cardiff, and Manchester. They will also be visiting other European countries such as Spain, Italy, Germany, France, and more.
