Wanna be in my gang? - The Guardian It is one thing to love a person's music - quite another to try and physically resemble that person while watching them perform in concert. Chuck Klosterman on the uber-fans Excerpt: As I've said, I am not an authentic fanatic; I lack grit. But I spend a lot of time thinking about fanatics and I've concluded that the following 10 artists have the most dedicated, least rational fan followings: 1. Slayer 2. Tori Amos 3. Sublime 4. Kiss 5. Bruce Springsteen 6. Black Sabbath (particularly the Tony Martin era, for some reason) 7. Jimmy Buffett 8. Iron Maiden 9. Guided By Voices 10. Morrissey

What about Phish? Them too.
Torn Anus is on this list? (Score:1)
She does have a few decent songs, come to think of it, and she CAN actually play and sing, but again...she is a bit off. And not in a good way.
New-age nutjob, at the end of the day.

As for Sublime, they were great. Definitely a band that was ended too early by drugs.

The Guardian (Score:1)
Just to put in my two pence worth, I like Tori Amos. Also, The Guardian is a big heap of self-satisfied shit written by condescending prigs who think they represent a bastion of intelligence in Britain when all they represent is narrow-minded mediocrity. They should all be slaughtered. "Hey, I'm Mr Rational, and today I'm going to dissect these strange, irrational, sub-human creatures known as 'fans'." Fuck off.
