STILL KISSING THEIR POSTERS GOODNIGHT: LIFELONG POP MUSIC FANDOM TONYA ANDERSON Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of Sunderland for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy March 2012 Abstract Narratives about the discovery of one’s favourite artist are popular discussion topics among adult pop music fans, as are narratives of rediscovery later in life, suggesting that memory and nostalgia are powerful forces that can repeatedly draw fans back to that affective moment when they first discovered, and perhaps rediscovered, their idols. The impact of cultural influences like pop music during the formative period of adolescence cannot be underestimated. Such early identifications with pop music icons enable some adolescents to then carry those attachments with them their entire lives, forming lifelong fandoms. Through an ethnographic investigation into one such fan community, adult female fans of ’80s heart throbs Duran Duran, this research focuses on ‘mature’ pop fans in an effort to explore an enduring and lifelong fandom that is deeply communal, entrenched in a worldwide network of other fans. Of particular interest is the way in which fans connect via a hybrid of online and offline interactions, as well as how the resulting interaction mix generates complex dynamics and hierarchies. While this research focuses on Duran fan culture, fans of other teen idols were surveyed for comparative purposes, in particular bands that also experienced a resurgence of success after announcing a ‘reunion’, including Take That and the Backstreet Boys.

  • Late Style, Disability, and the Temporality of Illness in Popular Music
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Singing at Death’s Door: Late Style, Disability, and the Temporality of Illness in Popular Music A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Musicology by Tiffany Naiman 2017 © Copyright by Tiffany Naiman 2017 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Singing at Death’s Door: Late Style, Disability, and the Temporality of Illness in Popular Music by Tiffany Naiman Doctor of Philosophy in Musicology University of California, Los Angeles, 2017 Professor Robert W. Fink, Co-Chair Professor Raymond L. Knapp, Co-Chair This dissertation investigates musical expressions of temporal alterities in works created by popular music artists, identifying their aesthetic responses as their bodies become ill, disabled, and they become more aware of mortality. I propose a critical, hermeneutic, and theoretical method drawn from Edward Said’s appropriation of Adorno’s expression “late style” that I have designated ill style, a form of creativity within a temporality of illness. Late style is discernable in works produced, paradigmatically, at the end of one’s career in “old age,” but late style may also be understood as an influence on artistic output at any stage of life if the subject is experiencing untimeliness and a disruption in access to the communal understanding of futurity and time, a possible consequence of factors other than age. I contend that late style, accelerated by illness, disrupts Western cultural attempts at ignoring precarious and finite nature of existence; the resulting expressions of lateness ask audiences to do the same. I offer a way in which to think more critically about what scholars consider late style, how it functions in popular ii music studies and society, and how it intersects with the fields of disability, gender, queer, and critical race studies, and the social sciences.

  • The Replacements Bible
    THE REPLACEMENTS bible version 1.4 this is an document of copyrighted material for educational/research purposes only You are encouraged to utilize the Bookmarks for navigation Brats in Babylon THE REPLACEMENTS By Ralph Heibutzki Goldmine, October 29, 1993 Saturday, January 18, 1986: After a trying time with the people of NBC's Saturday Night Live, Replacements guitarist Bob Stinson decides to cut loose and make himself at home in his New York City hotel room. "We got there at the [Omni] Berkshire [Hotel], and all our rooms got flowers and fruit—it's like, 'bad move, guys,’” he says recalling the accident. By the time Stinson finishes making himself at home, it costs $1,000 to replace a broken window, door and phone. The carnage isn't major, but doesn't endear the Replacements to Saturday Night producer Lorne Michaels, who vows, “No band from Warner Brothers is playing on my show again unless you guys pay for it.” Warner Brothers antes up without fuss. "We were a troublesome bunch,” says Stinson. "They picked us up in the stock limousine. They knew we were going to immediately start drinking, which we did. And they wouldn’t let us off the floor — ‘Anything you need, let us know’- and it’s like, ‘Okay, gimme about four (studio) pages and I'll feel better.' Yeah, we were totally abusive of their privileges.” Later that night, Stinson and company—his bassist/brother, Tommy, singer/guitarist, Paul Westerberg; and drummer Chris Mars—throw timing and tuning aside during "Bastards Of Young" and "Kiss Me On The Bus” in a classic clip reflecting a long day of mismatched sensibilities and mutual hostility.

I added a new chapter, Music & Musicians, and a new appendix IV, Additional Songs, but I condensed the Attraction Isn’t a Choice chapter. I elaborated on and added some famous and infamous ephebophiles like Marvin Gaye and Mickey Rooney. However, the bulk of the second edition is peppered with additional examples of ephebophilia and teleiophilia that I culled from literature, poetry, movies, plays, art and television shows. 5 Introduction In 2001, Napster, the popular yet illegal music sharing program was shut down, but due to Napster’s popularity and influence, other file sharing programs were released. During that time, counterfeit movies, the same movies that could be purchased on Canal Street and in the subway in New York City, became available for download on the Internet.
