Now the stooges were punk but the doors no but the doors are still great to listen to as the stooges are too.

Zevon, you're supposing that the band endorsed and were actively involved with the fan club. Also does any community of interests inevitably lead to conformity and group think ? If you go to a football match and you're one of an attendance of .. let's say 50,000 the commonality is that you support the same team, but what else ? There is sufficient diversity in a crowd of that size to counteract a groupthink tendency, and also where is the coercive pressure to conform ? What are the sanctions or punishments for non-conformity ? You don't need anyone's permission to support the team, just like you don't need anyone's permission to like the Damned and to wish to join a fan club. You're supposing a kind of herding motivation in joining a fan club that may not be at all relevant to this individual. What about other motivations for joining a fan club? Exclusive releases, priority for tickets etc etc
