Which Band Has The Most Dedicated Superfans?: Round Three

Posted by Cory Cavin February 1, 2010 4:30 PM

It's that time again. We've asked you Which Band Has The Most Dedicated Superfans? and Which Teen Idol Has The Most Dedicated Superfans? and the responses were overwhelming. Tonight NKOTB, a band with a tribe of major superfans, is performing on Late Night and I expect some major superfanning to go down at 30 Rock. So once again I ask you....Which Band Has The Most Dedicated Superfans?

A. NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK

NKOTB officially came onto the scene sixteen years ago and their fans have been insanely dedicated and obsessed ever since. They stormed our first superfans poll and demanded to be counted as a write in. Could this be their poll to shine in?

B. DAVE MATTHEWS BAND

The DMB is no stranger to superfan status. They've been selling out stadiums and releasing smash hits for years. Dave even created the Dave Matthews GPS with Jimmy, which I'm hoping becomes an actual new product soon.

See more bands and VOTE after the jump!

C. HANSON

Far from their "Mmmbop" days, Hanson have grown up to play more and different music and their fans have followed. The boys have shown their real music talent, and Taylor Hanson now sings in the pop supergroup Tinted Windows.


D. BLINK-182

Blink-182 has been wowing pop punkers for years now and they've expanded into solo projects, toured extensively, and released six albums. They are currently working on a studio album together.


E. SLIPKNOT

Slipknot fans are called Maggots and they are incredibly dedicated to Slipknot and their music. Would it be fair to say that Maggots 'feed off' of Slipknot and their music, hmmm? Yes. It would be fair to say that.


F. METALLICA

Metallica has been around thrashing for almost thirty years. THIRTY YEARS. They've reinvented themselves, cut their hair, and are still packing stadiums full of fans of all ages. Truly the masters of metal. MASTER!

G. AEROSMITH

You don't continue to tour for four decades without a crazy amount of dedicated fans coming to your shows over and over and over. Aerosmith's hit making has continued for all these years (including pioneering the fusion of rap and rock with "Walk This Way") drawing fans to stadiums every single show.


H. LADY GAGA

The fame monster herself! Lady Gaga is the newest on the superfan scene and is taking over because, hello, she's Lady Gaga. Her crazy antics on stage, fake blood, insane costumes, and bizarre live performance are selling out shows everywhere and giving her a growing fan base. Why does the dancer in this picture have an Ace bandage on her face?


I. MICHAEL JACKSON

Michael Jackson is the true King of Pop and the biggest pop star of all time, hands down. MJ's fanbase stretches worldwide and his fans are truly dedicated. Many of them reacted with overwhelming joy when they got tickets to his memorial service in Los Angeles.
