I don't know anyone locally who is as much of a fan as I am. I do know a lot of people who don't post on this or any other message board who are huge fans though. Most of my local friends will tolerate Bon Jovi for me, maybe even consider themselves fans, but are definitely not fans to the extent I am--collecting stuff, traveling for shows, and paying attention to the band members lives and other projects. The girls I went to school with used to be big fans like me, but everyone else "grew out of it."
