Do you like any entertainer so much that you would join his/her fan club?

Incubus :)

no I don't. I love Aerosmith but not enough to join the fan club

"Entertainer" as public performer--no. No fan clubs.

I guess not since I don't belong to any fan clubs. I'm not sure that it has anything to do with the way I feel about certain entertainers, though. Probably just laziness.

I didn't even join Elvis' fan club when I was a teenager in the 50's. I think I'm a bit old for that now.

Judy, 62
Easton, KS USA

No. Fan clubs are lame.

No. Unless you're 13 that's the first step in becoming a stalker.

In 1989, I became a country music fan. At that time my favorite singer was Ronnie Milsap and I joined his fan club for a couple years. Then I joined the Randy Travis fan club and now I am a member of the David Ball Fan Club.

Nah. When I was much younger I joined the fan clubs of my favourite groups, but I wouldn't join one nowadays.

That's a hard question, because I'm still conflicted on the role of fan clubs. I think they started out innocently enough, but today have just become selling machines.

no

I've joined the fan clubs of Martyn Joseph, as well am a member of a discussion group for the Vigilantes of Love/Bill Mallonee.

I have join John Mayer's newsletter so I get reports of where he is playing. Does that count?

Janet, 45
E. Brunswick, NJ USA

I guess not. I don't belong to any fan clubs.

Cathie, 53
Novi, MI USA

No. It's all marketing bogus. I knew that at 12 too!!!

Christine, 37
Syracuse, NY USA

I'm in Jim Brickman's. I think. I do like Bon Jovi that much, except I doubt a Bon Jovi fan club (one that was official and all) would be able to offer much that I really wanted and still be a
good deal. I can buy concert tickets and T-shirts on my own.

Karen, 23
Ames, IA USA

I like entertainers, but not enough to join their fan club. I know I did that when I was little, but that's what little kids do. It's somehow wrong when you're grown up!

Tracy, 24

Yes, No Doubt (Gwen Stefani, Toni Kanal, Adrian Young, Tom Dumont)

Melodi, 19
Gahanna, OH USA

No.

Laura, 37

No, never did...never will.
