Sleater-Kinney like whoa to the max!! (original) (raw)

I’ve been a fan of Sleater-Kinney for a few years (unfortunately, not before they broke up), but I've only recently reached the level of superfan craziness. I’ve been listening to everything I can get my hands on, watching Youtube videos, and searching for articles, concert reviews, and pictures. But it’s a little hard when your favorite band has gone on “indefinite hiatus” and a number of the accompanying websites are no longer working. And that's perhaps the most painful part. There don't seem to be any active online communities for S-K where I can share my love for these amazing women!

I’ve been spoiled when it comes to online music fandom. The other band that I love to obsessive levels is Fleetwood Mac. No judging! The boards I frequent for the Mac are very lively communities, with interesting discussions going on every day and a lot of bootleg sharing. Now, I realize that Fleetwood Mac has been around for much longer and has a much larger fanbase than a little indie band that could. Still, their most recent album came out a few years before S-K’s last album, yet they still have a very busy fan community.

Mostly, I just want to know where in the world I can go to interact with other Sleater-Kinney fans. I want to find a place where I can discuss my adoration of Corin, Carrie, and Janet with like minded people, where I can find out new things about these women and their songs, and acquire bootlegged music and videos of concerts, and all the other sorts of things that you want to do for your favorite band. I can’t find any active forums, and it breaks my heart!
