The Super Fan (the musical kind)

Sep 3 14:05 UTC 2001

        Do you know any Super Fans?  The web-page creating, fan-zine
publishing, multi-concert attending types?  What do you think of 
them.  How are the ones as friends different than the nut-job you
hear about?

        I know the president of the Al Stewart fan club and 
publisher of the fan-zine Chronicles.  Ken would also know Kim.
She will be flying to the UK this September, and will be catching
all their shows.  Now in a position of trust with Al and the band,
she does get privileges to be around the band others do not.

        I found out this past year, I know the super fan of 
Ben Folds Five group.  A freind from high school and college
days, Frank put up a Ben Folds Five webpage.

        I also have met many a "Werid Al" Yankovic fan.  Some
are quite fanatical.  We can talk about them more in the next
item, #27, the all "Werid Al" Yankovic item.

        Another freind, Bill, is also rather fanatical about 
comic/white rapper, the great Luke Ski.  I also know Luke,
but am not so into joing Luke onstage as any part of his show
as Bill.
        Find more about Luke Ski at www.lukeski.com (his own site)

Well, llanarth/balynce from Grex here is/was a huge fan of Sammy Hagar &
others, although I don't think she designed web sites for him.

I'm a pretty big Kristen Hersh fan but not to the point of designing web
sites for her. I would probably drive up to 250 miles to see her in
concert though.  Thank goodness she played in Ann Arbor this year and not
a more remote location. :-)
