I think a typical roxette fan could be either Male or female as we have both marie and per to admire. lol, i think we would be aged between 18 - 32 as roxette started out in the early 90’s. plus i wouldnt thought roxette is your typical teen music , more adult contep now. A like for things rocky and good music with a chrous , ie dont bore us get to the chrous. Likes abit of 80’s music sound and has there own style about them.

ps i have no idea if its fact just a thought and didnt mean to hurt anyone if you dont fit in with what i mentioned. :-)

hy girl7twenty7 your from the Ukraine :-) my dad and grandparents were form there Ukraine ie surname ’Kuryliw’ but came to UK last world war :-(, my dad always wanted to go back there someday :-)

I think yes there´s a typical kinda roxette´s fanatic. it is the one who does never stop talkin about Roxette, to the people who is not fan, (also among fans you can´t stop talkin about it). A fanatic is who loves all their songs and wanna have all the cds ever released... and more.
A Roxette´s fanatic is the one who wanna be sharing music to everybody just cos (s)he wants to another people know them or remember them, he doens´t get moeny for copies of cds...
I think that is the kind of Roxette´s fanatic. (there are lots of kinds of course).
Have a nice day.

Once on the official ROXETTE fanclub website, in B-Day section I saw that there is a member of 76 years!!! Of course if it wasn’t a mistake.

RobS said on October 24, 2004 11:22:

i don’t there is a typical roxette fan!?

I think Per summed it up quite well in Live-Ism (can’t remember exactly what he said though)

Anarem said on October 24, 2004 17:49:

I think it’s all about the spikey hair, baby– that’s why there’s a big gay following! :-P

rox-kuryliw said on October 24, 2004 18:32:

LOL i think weve had the gay thing and roxette before :-/ , I dont think most ’gay’ people if you must label them like roxette, just as many stright people do. Im bi and i fancy marie and im proud to do so. My brother is stright with gf and he likes roxette :-P( I like short hair on women lol hehe) Its not like roxette are mega camp of for teens! so i think they appeal form mt dads age whole loves CBB to my neice who is 10 and loves ’stars’, Its all about the music :-)
@girl7twenty7 ye i get ALOT of people trying to same my name in some of the strangest ways lol We think our surname got changed slightly over the last world war slightly cos weve just started doing a family tree, very interesting it all is.

rox-kuryliw said on October 25, 2004 10:34:

lol good for you .

Kiwein1 said on October 25, 2004 16:41:

The typical Roxette fan is German or Dutch, totally crazy, sleeping on stairs, waiting in front of Per’s and Marie’s houses for his/her idol/s, wearing Active Fanbase-T-Shirts, screaming and fainting when seeing Per or Marie and not able to overcome cliches.. :D

m-cvk said on October 25, 2004 17:46:

There’s no typical Roxette fan.

Kiwein: with most things you mentioned, you described a ’typical German Roxette fan’. I’ve never seen a Dutch fan (or from an other country) wearing an active fan base t-shirt. Do you know where to order them? ;-)

Kiwein1 said on October 25, 2004 17:52:

@m-cvk: Yeah, sorry mixed the shirts with the rest..so I have to add: wearing those shirts only refers to Germans.. :D

Kiwein1 said on October 25, 2004 19:08:

There IS a chance, definitely, but nobody’s wearing them nowadays. It was just a last year’s fashion. ;) Maybe somebody’s coming up with a new idea soon, who knows..

Kiwein1 said on October 25, 2004 19:55:

I was just kidding.. :)
Mind the smilies! Everything’s fine. :)

skuhm said on October 25, 2004 20:12:

I’ve got an idea! We could try to describe each us (ourselves i mean =) and try and see if there’s a pattern... Sex, age, country, small bio. Do you want to try? Hands up!

nancy_girl said on October 25, 2004 22:19:

I’m 22, female, German and I do study Swedish at uni (doesn’t have to do anything with Roxette though:), I study English as well). I’m bi and i like boys, girls and nancy boys in eyeliner (too bad those don’t like me;)).
There are 4 or 5 bands I like as much as Roxette, and if I listed them up Roxette might look a bit odd among them, but I don’t care at all :).

skuhm said on October 26, 2004 23:07:

I’ll continue myself. I’m 24, gay male, Spanish. I’ve studied Translation and interpreting and I’ve worked as a teacher. I love Roxette because of their melodic songs, I think one of the most annoying things about today’s music is that it lacks melody, memorable choruses, all that... I can barely stand watching the MTV for more that five minutes, 90% of the music really bores me! Anyway I also like dance music (trance, progressive) and artists such as Tori Amos, Laura Pausini, Chicane, Babel Fish, Dubstar, ATB and many more.

ally77 said on October 27, 2004 14:11:

I say in there 20’s, could be male or female and perhaps still single!

Rox_Nox2003 said on October 27, 2004 23:55:

I am gonna be satirical on this one but just for fun LOL:
A roxette fan:
- hates HAND
- does not know what do to do with RS
- cries at night for more guitars
- prays out loud for Anders Herrlin’s comeback
- wants to kick Michael Illbert’s ass
- disapproves the 3 some production team: Marie, Per and Clarence
- a bit anti-synth
- sleeps tight with Roxette’s past music ... especially if the tedy bear on the bed is a CD called “Crash!Boom!Bang!”

LOL

It was just a joke of mine!
It’s quite hard to describe a typical rox fan I mean we’re all different as individuals so I don’t see how we can build up a group of “typical fans”.

Rox_Nox2003 said on October 27, 2004 23:58:

I would also add: a Roxette fan ... must bring a bear enjoy the sun knock on every door spend some time listen to their hearts got the look and know what to do when he or she gets a little excited a little in pain...

and yeah in per-ish sort of way as someone has already said ...broke and drunk ...and you will dance to any rox song ...LOL
