WHAT?!?! Dan isn't up there? He's a huge STC fanboy!!! Yes, I can find a way to bring STC into every single new thread. But of those, probably whistlurrr even though he is the main force that drives our opposition, the Booby l00bz.

That's your classic one. And the most menacing....  BTW, I could somewhat be considered a Pat Metheny fanboy...  But not to the extreme, like Whistlurrr.

I have to go with the Whistler; he makes fanboyism an art (and he's very funny to boot... especially when I've got my spurs on).

I'm pleased you've spotted Mr Riviere's penchant for two-track fanboyism...he gets my vote by a country mile....
the amount of  threads he starts on either Rush's time in a recording studio or Steven Wilson's daily bowel movements, you'd think that no other prog bands exitsted...........

Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson

My vote goes for Tony R because he is fighting for the cause that is near and dear to my fanboyism.
As for Mr. The T, he is definitely a qualified member of the Dream Theater fanboy A Team. Also, a good cause IMHO.
As for The Whistler, you can always count on him to add his two flutes to any discussion. And he is definitely the biggest Tull fan that I have seen on these forums; Barre none.

The ability to change avatars is insignificant next to the power of The Force.

You're too zen for a fanboy. Comments like "i have since long stopped reacting to tool bashing threads" just won't cut it. :)

^ Dunno, he is losing after all, and I strongly suspect that he knew that he'd be the underdog (loser!) when coming up with this poll, which would be reason enough for me to change my vote if I could. What I like about The T is that even though he deliberately makes a show of being self-centred/ egotistical, he does have a self-deprecatory sense of humour. I don't think he really takes himself that seriously (and doesn't mind a bit of ridicule, in fact he incites it), and that's one of the qualities I most respect in people.
