Default What defines a Bon Jovi diehard?

What traits/characteristics would a die hard have over just a big Bon Jovi fan? Just wondering as they seem to be subcategorised in a little world of their own. Any die hards on here?

Somebody who thinks that Bon Jovi has recorded the single best song in the history of Rock music. Wanted Dead Or Alive. No one can take that one away from them, no matter how hard Bon Jovi seem to try to destroy their legacy. Not that I care about the label, but because of that one little fact, I think I'm a Die-Hard fan.

Fan, hits a show now and then, buys the music, jams in their car until something replaces it or they release new material. Pretty normal life. Die hards boast of the years they follow, know set lists by heart, story behind the songs, play music to nauseous repetition, and send out all the birthday cards to the band and their crew. Now, you left one off - that's the Zealot - that's when you cross the lines of sanity. For examples, see Richies twitter feed fans. Gotta love it though. Can someone say I'm the pot calling the kettle black. When it effects my sleep - I need some serious rehab.

Someone who can say each band member's name backwards.

There is a very fine line between diehard fan and blind follower. All blind followers think they're diehard fans. I'm proudly a "big fan" rather than a diehard.

That Jon lookalike guy who goes around to Jovi shows in England. I'm not sure what he is but he definitely ticks the unhealthy obsession box.

I think a die hard is someone who has stuck with them through the good and bad and generally enjoys what they've done through the years.

Aloha !

I'm not sure about the exact criteria but it's got to be someone from Europe, clearly.

Not just England, I think he's from Germany as I've seen him there as well.

Salaam Aleikum,

A fanatic is a connoisseur on Jon's ass, hair styles of the band, and when Richie met Heather.

A die-hard is a connoisseur of the music.

Die-hard is better, but I am very pleased to say I am neither.
