Therapy? Fan Club

#

Started by Divers (Simon)

I came across all my old Therapy? fan club stuff today and was wondering who on the board used to be a member?

I’ve got a box full of all that old stuff. It was an excellent fanclub, I was gutted when they closed it, especially since I didn’t have internet at that time so was completely in the dark for some time.

Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee too :D

I was “quite upset” when they decided to close it down because they wanted to focus on the internet thing… especially as that was not really a big success in the beginning :rolleyes:

Cool, I was looking throgh all the funny farm mags and the birthday and christmas cards that i got sent by them. It used to be a good price for what you got. I have the CD the Close personal Friend T-Shirt and a watch. I was gutted when it closed as well it was strange as i never got anything to say that it had actually closed.

Do you think they would ever restart it?

I used to be 5 years. I also absolutely loved the stuff. Especially The Funny Farms, it was fun to read those.

Yeah, I was in it too - I’ve all the stuff in a shoe box somewhere :)

Divers, they announced the club closure in the final “Funny Farm” magazine, as I recall.

Yes the last Funny Farm mentioned why they were closing it… to concentrate on the website thing if I remember correctly.

While the internet is a great thing (endless supply of porn, anyone?), it’s shame that it’s killed off fan clubs and fanzines and all that kind of stuff.

Although if it was running, I’d prefer it to have a different name than ‘fan club’, like, uh, ‘The Therapy? Appreciation Society’. Fan Club makes me feel like a teenage girl.

I only like to feel like a teenage girl on weekends when no one else is home.

I wonder…

Once, the fanclub accidentally sent my membership card to another member and she very sweetly sent it on to me. I think she was called Clare, are you among is, nice lady?

The last one I had was, Vol 2 1997 and it said nothing. I waited and waited and nothing more ever came :(

Sorry to hear that, then you don’t have this?
I got nothing in 1994 and I wrote to Fan Club saying that, so they send the stuff again but there was not the first issue of Funny Farm which I didn’t knew that it was supposed to be there. When I found that out a couple years after, I wrote to them again and I got it!!!! So I don’t feel gutted and cheated at all :p
