I don't like fan bases at all. They always manage to make things weird that doesn't need to be weird. Fan fiction is culprit number one. Make your own thing, instead of making someone else's thing, but worse.

I can enjoy the things i like without needing to flaunt it obnoxiously.

Guitar/Metal, spider-man and Donald Duck comics, Harry potter-books, sports(just sports in general, exceptional achievements are exiting to watch).

You have to walk before you can run. Like, I eventually made my own thing, but I couldn't have if I didn't learn from masters first

Sure. But why publish it for everyone else to suffer?

Because [me] [music] looks pretty cool to play, it just takes three to four people to do it right. I think. I haven't tested the method with the largest instrument I have played, so until I do I won't know if it's three or four.

Normal people do it with either six or eight people and they're boring.
