Manic Street Preachers, Music messageboards, fish, barrel, but...
Usually I consider music messageboards and/or Manic Street Preachers fans to be something of a fish in a barrel situation, but.

17 pages of argument about a single moment less than a tenth of a second long on one song on (a leak of) an album that hasn't been released yet.

17 pages in one day.

This is the most major fan forum, linked from the official site, and good intelligence has it that at least two band members lurk on a regular basis.

Someone has a Dr. Who icon that says - Doctor Who fan: noun: someone who hates Dr. Who. The same goes for the Manics.

it's like Star Wars - everyone's big on the original trilogy but hate Jar Jar Binks, yes? well it's like that with the Manics - a lot of people like the first three (or four) albums but then aren't so keen on the more recent stuff.

EEEEEEEH MANICS WANK*

Hahaha, I remember when my ex-interwebs friend started FD, and I used to spend so much time on there I thought I was a BNF. Oh how this takes me back.

*Well, official manics wank. Actual manics wank is about as rare as youtube or IMDB wank.

This was the fandom that taught me to wank back when I was a teenager in 1992. Before the interwebz and everything. OMG.

All these things that I LIKE and am familiar with keep coming up on the wank communities. First Whitby Goth Weekend, now my favourite band. I'm used to not knowing what the hell people are talking about. This is weird to me.

I must be a bad fan, because I had no idea this horrible travesty of a mistake existed.

Then again, you're pretty much a bad fan for expressing any positive opinion of the band. Like post-Richey Manics? You're a cider-swilling noob and a traitor to Richey! Only like the early stuff? Cult of Richey whore! Like a bit of both? Completely deaf! Like the way Nicky Wire looks in a skirt? Completely deaf AND blind!

Damn, I'd fit right in. I've tried to get into the Manics, but I can't help but think they're a crappier and Britisher Rage Against the Machine either pre- or post-Richey. The appeal is lost on me. Glad to see their own fen don't see it either.

and/or Manic Street Preachers fans to be something of a fish in a barrel situation

I've always said that, had F_W existed in the mid-nineties, we would have had to start a F_W spin-off à la [info]hp_cornfield for all the Manics fandom wank.

It's only logical, since I doubt there's many fandoms whose objects of affection declare themselves to be "self-confessed wankers".

Oh, man. MSP chat circa 2000. I wanked like no other. Well, I wanked like everyone else in MSP chat circa 2000, but hey. I am still fond of the fandom that taught me to wank. :D

God, I miss those days...*nostalgia*
