Not sure what Metallica has to do with ICP, the group most notorious for asking how magnets work. Metallica and icp are on completely different levels.

I was providing examples of super fans who are adults, not comparing Metallica and ICP.

Are you familiar with the Grateful Dead following?

This has to be the most bonkers insane thread to exist on this board for awhile, without haven been taken over by the Politics folks.

We've gone from "no one in my entire extended family, nor up and down my street (nor their extended families) have ever listened to 4x Album of the Year winner Taylor Swift", mixed with "Tracy Chapman is a black woman? Who knew?", to talking about Insane Clown Posse on a thread about the Grammys.

What a thread.

Phish fans say hey. My ex wrote the original Phish lore bible and founded their charitable music foundation.

His room in college was filled with bootleg tapes for sharing and he was a usenet newsgroup admin for Phish fans in the 90s. He was exceptional, but Phish fans are quite a breed.

My gf is a big Swiftie and has seen Phish over 20 times. She's a real one.

It kind of reminds me of the "Is Hillary Swank hot?" debate from The Office.

Let's all just admit Taylor Swift is an amazing singer songwriter and performer but not everyone's cup of tea.

My wife's cousin has has seen Dave Matthews Band in concert 147 times. That's not an estimation, it's the exact count. Her daughter who is a junior in college has seen them 52 times.

Holy ***** That's once every two months for 25 years.

I looked up some ticket prices and even assuming a modest $200 per ticket over the years (any shows I was looking up were much much more than that), that's like $20,000 in concert tickets (assuming a single ticket) and who knows how much in merch and food and drink while there. that's a crazy amount for a single artist.

More comments to stir the pot and from the peanut gallery.

Super fans have been around for decades.

Dead heads? Beatles fans, crazy Elvis fans, metal heads that worship Metallica, insane clown posse followers, people crying at Michael Jackson concerts…….

This thread is full of some of the most musically inept people I have ever engaged with


I resent this comment. I used to know every word to Kokomo by The Beach Boys and could sing it on cue.

And I don't even really like The Beach Boys.

MUSICALLY INEPTNESS DENIED.

Yeah it's pretty wild. They also sit fairly close every time and have come to know some of the members of the band. Their daughter refers to Carter Beauford as Uncle Carter.

I've been going to DMB since 2003 and I think I'm around 35 shows. Going to at least 2 more this year. Not nearly as impressive as nai's family.

Again not my jam, but they really love DMB and it makes them happy. So I'm happy for them. Plus it's a fun story for me to tell.

I guess what I meant was, as I was started to read it, 'happy for metallica' I'm thinking I'm about to read a heartfelt comment.. then I see 80 years old, I'm like hmm that's a bit off.. then the last bit I'm like Oh OK yeh this went way different than I expected!

Disney just announced they are dropping Taylor's movie with new songs.

62strat: "Me and no one in my extended family, or neighborhood, or anyone in my neighborhood's extended family, subscribe to Disney+"

Wow!!!

My house just went nut! Big Disney+ fans here. I bundled HULU/ESPN+ with it recently for a $1 more. Well worth it.

The newly expanded version of "The Eras Tour" will hit Disney+ worldwide on March 15, 2024.

I know someone, in my house, who already rented the movie twice, who will probably watch this another 5 times easily

well, we don't, and my parents and only sibling don't.

Not sure past that!

Why, do half of American adults subscribe to Disney+ as well as like Taylor swift?

lol I can't take you serious anymore.

Maybe because we have children as adults.

Oh and maybe because I can watch any Star Wars movie I want at any time.

Taylor Swift is an Adult. Many people, such as myself, grew up listening to her throughout the years and enjoy listening to her music. And in 2024 she is putting out music that is relevant to her as an adult.

Perhaps if 62 strat had a Taylor Swift/James Hetfield version of Tout le Monde (Set Me Free)", sung as a duet between Mustaine and Cristina Scabbia then he would become a Swiftie
