The weirdly life affirming thing about fandom and some of the adoration that comes with it, particularly as pertains to real people, is that fans will love all the parts of you. That what is deemed ‘marketable’ by the press release and everything else they left out. If you come from something, fans will keep it alive. A Sam Fender fan away in Nebraska, USA will learn the Geordie dialect to accurately write Sam Fender x reader fanfic. They will keep alive a dialect declining even in Newcastle. As long as someone knows it, it lives on. The more people into it, the more beloved it becomes; it has a resurgence, it carries on. A Kneecap fan in Indonesia whose third language is English decides Irish Gaeilge can be their fourth. The Eurovision fans decided they can learn all of Finnish after being drawn to one song about piña coladas (and the super endearing Käärijä!)
Fandom is so much more than some base lowly shit to be embarrassed about that people like to reduce it to. It’s a powerful mode of culture. It’s so much more than about writing ‘your silly little stories about your pathetic men’; fandom is the reason American Blur fans flew thousands of miles overseas to be at Wembley last summer. Fandom is checking your IG stories after that gig and seeing that other well-loved musicians also have the same story as you because they were at that gig too. It is months later hearing Grian Chatten from Fontaines D.C. say that part of their new song was inspired by going to that Wembley show, and knowing exactly what he meant by that.
It is about shared cultural moments, it’s about the realisation that nothing is ever strictly in the past, and that we are sharing and creating culture in the now. I don’t know where I’m going with this, I was just struck by the connection between culture and pop culture. Don’t let people tell you they’re different worlds, I suppose

RTÉ says Kneecap agreed not to wear pro-Palestine badges on The Late Late, but did anyway
RTÉ HAS RELEASED a statement clarifying that rap trio Kneecap had agreed not to wear pro-Palestine badges during their Late Late Show performance last night through their management, but then proceeded to wear them anyway live on air.
On last night’s Late Late Show, Kneecap performed their new single ‘Better Way to Live’ and then chatted to host Patrick Kielty.
Kneecap’s Mo Chara and Móglaí Bap wore a watermelon badge – it’s become a pro-Palestine accessory because its colours match that of the Palestine flag.
However, during the chat with Kielty, DJ Próvaí removed his jacket to reveal a Palestine sports jersey.
Kneecap’s Móglaí Bap then said, to applause from the audience, that the group wants to “use our platform to highlight the genocide that’s happening in Palestine at the moment”.
He said that over 30,000 Palestinians have been killed “by American weapons” in the conflict so far, the majority of whom are women and children.
He added: “I think we have to use this platform and this opportunity to appeal to Irish people to attend rallies and protests and to support the BDS movement, and to show solidarity with Palestine and hopefully one day Palestine will be free.”

here are my thoughts:
Rooster, Phoenix and Bob (maybe Payback and Fanboy too?) are in a metal band together (music genre may change... but as long as it stays within rock/metal)
Rooster: Guitar (lead), singer, piano, drums,
Phoenix: Singer (lead), bass(lead), violin
Bob: Drummer (lead), singer, harmonica
Payback: Guitar, singer, bass
Fanboy: Bass, piano,
Hangman is a sports jock, but closeted metalhead (probably Coyote too)
Additional: Goose, Mav and Carole were in a little band together. Goose dies in an accident, Carole stops doing music professionally, Mav joins band with Ice and Slider and others from the 86 crew?
