Underground Fanatic-These fans are usually the ones that love underground music, but once the bands they like become big, they completely turn on their band for becoming successful.

I have friends like this. They love the band until they see their CD in stores. Then all I here is, "They were better when they plyed at small shows. Now they're sellouts".

Quote:
Obsessed & Ridiculous-These fans are usually the ones that are obsessed with one style of music, and sticks to the classics because everything else isn't the true style of music as it was in the past.

You could almost merge this with the "your band sucks" category. Usually friends of mine will ask me if they've every heard or listened to a certain band before. Knowing full well that they've already asked me about them 5 times earlier. Selective memory.

Open Minded- These fans are usually that ones that say that have an open mind to everything, but when it comes to it, they like every kind of music in only one genre. Lets say someone says they have an open mind and listenes to anything, but then they say "but I can't stand this, that or the other" style of music and are extremely closed minded.
|
Saying your "open minded" is basically a front for saying you like only 1 or 2 genres of music. Usually Rap, R&B, or Country in my friends' case.

Your band SUCKS!-These fans HATE everything that they don't listen to. If they find out you don't like a band they like, they will try to argue with you saying how great they are until you either agree or just tell them to shut the fuck up.
|
This goes almost hand-in-hand with the whole myspace band following. Beyond the couple of bands that they hopelessly argue about, they aren't very musically inclined.

Quote:
Singles Only- These are you typical MTV fans, they only like the singles that one band puts out and see's their video played on TV over and over again. They don't know anything about the band other than the two big hits they have per record.
|
I have to say these are the people I dislike the most. For example: when Gorillaz' Demon Days album was released. I tried to get people to check out the album. I got some hilarious responses. "Oh yeah, I got like Clint Eastwood and Feel Good Inc." Typical.

I luV U- Fans like this are only into bands because of the trend and looks of the certain band. They don't care for the music, only the looks and will love the band just because of how they present themself with a certain "scene" they are into.
|
I really have to say, there really isn't much of a varient in the "scene" area. Just different colors of makeup and a few pieces of hair going in another direction.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
