What exactly does it take to be a fan?
Persistence, dedication and the drive to see them on the road to success! You have to stand by, encourage, admire and support "your" entertainer. It is almost imperative to be at every possible show, if not, you feel that you're not doing your best. It's sometimes hard to be an avid ETA fan, trust me!
THE ONE AND ONLY ETA FAN APPLICATION:
Are you willing to go to great lengths to support "your" ETA? Ready to stand up and defend, endorse, or travel over hot coals for him? If so, then please answer the following questions.
- What distance will you travel to "be there" for his performance? Is it 10 miles, 50 miles, 100 miles or just about anywhere you can?
- If called on to help out at a show, will you... be there with bells and whistles on, succumbing only after great deliberations, or will you hide and chose just to "watch the show"?
- In an Internet battle (or otherwise), will you stand up and shout who is the best-and let no one else dare stand in your way, or will you mention a few times who you would chose, or do you just let them all rattle on and embarrass themselves?
- At a performance do you always have to sit in the front row, or would you rather mix with the crowd, or maybe you would rather be standing in the back out of sight?
- Does the entertainer know you by name, face or doesn't he have a clue who you are?
- Are you willing to hand him scarves, water and dab his brow when needed?
- Do you wear his shirt, or some other memorabilia that shows you are his #1 fan?
- Do you yell, holler, clap and shout after each and every song?
The OBVIOUS answers...
- Just about anywhere you can.
- Be there with bells and whistles on.
- Stand up and shout who is the best-and let no one else dare stand in your way.
- Certainly you have to sit in the front row... sheesh!
- Of course he knows you by name!
- Yes
- Of course!
- It's a given...
If you have answered all these questions correct, then you are the one they want. They need you. You are ACCEPTED!
Have no doubt about it, if not for the crazy and not so crazy fans like us, they wouldn't know what to do... really! We are one of their best critics, best supporters, and to us they do very little wrong. We know their mom, dad, and siblings, along with birthdays, dogs' names, favorite foods, clothes, songs, and almost every possible thing about these guys.
