Based on three years of ethnographic research with Bruce Springsteen fans, and informed by the author''s own experiences as a fan, Tramps Like Us is an interdisciplinary study of the ways in which ordinary people form special, sustained attachments to Springsteen and his music and how thoseattachments function in people''s daily lives. An insider''s narrative about Springsteen fans-who they are, what they do, and why they do it-this book also explores the phenomenon of fandom in general. The text oscillates between fans'' stories and ideas and the author''s own anecdotes, commentary, and analysis. Cavicchi challenges the stereotypes of fans as obsessive, delusional, and even mentally ill, and explores fandom as a normal cultural and social phenomenon. He argues that music fandom is a useful and meaningful behavior that enables people to shape identity, create community, and makesense of the world. | Tramps Like Us by Daniel Cavicchi Hardcover | Indigo Chapters Books > Music & Movies & Performing Arts > Music > Rock P10122, Daniel Cavicchi<
