Are You A Good Soul Fan?

[Guest uniglam]

Hi,

I am a researcher at the University of Glamorgan and I am currently looking at the social identity of music fans. I am absolutely desperate to include some Soul fans in our study and I was hoping that you could spare 5 minutes and do a quick survey. All you need to do is click on the link below and you will be able to start the survey.

Thank you very much!

I don't know about good but I'm a fan

A very easy survey form to complete

Good luck with your research

[Guest allnightandy]

I filled it in when it was posted on Comedy sale of the day

on Monday !

[Amsterdam Russ]

Without knowing the hypotheses being examined the survey seems rather naive. Regardless, good luck with your study. It would be nice to be able to read the paper that comes out of your research once it's completed.

I did the survey yesterday, thought some of the parameters were a bit too broad to have too much relevance to the soul scene, but enjoyed filling it in anyway

[Winnie :-)]

I did the survey the other day, slipped into my high waisters, and bowling shirt, clapped and span at the end of each question to give it some authenticity

[Julie Moore]

[Jumpinjoan]

I had a look but couldn't answer question 9 so gave up

My answer would be between the ages 14-40+. I am such a saddo! lol

I answered yes to do you 'dress like a fan' and then realised he did not mean the rather fetching japanese style get up I've been sporting occasionally lately....

[Simsy]

Whose thinking we'll all give the same answers?

Passion etc & live music nil!

[Stevie T]

i did try and got really fed up

sorry

[Mark S]

That was far to complicated for me so I gave up

[Guest]

I answered yes to "Do you dress like a fan?" but I thought the question was "Do you dress like a man?"

no julie just send all vinyl to me and i will rate you as fan or not please note i can not return any vinyl sent to me.

well beats the spam that you won 1 million pounds

I'm not sure you'd get a representative sample of "soul fans" on this message board, even if you're just talking about the UK. Aren't there many people who are fans of mainstream soul music (al green, marvin gaye, aretha franklin) that have no connection with (and possibly no knowledge of) "northern soul". I would imagine the people here are much more committed which would skew the types of questions your survey asks.

The question about how many Cd/LPs do you own made me giggle, I bet 99% of us put the top answer of 200+,

[Guest Sharon H]

I am a very bad Soul fan.

I am a very naughty Soul fan.

I must be punished...phwor!

[Guest Sujka]

Would be fun to see what conclusion you come up with. Can imagine that I'm who 19 year old will not have given much diffrent answers from somone who is 49 year old. That is the beauty about the scene.
