ok. but really, I gotta agree w/ Spacey.  While it\'s kinda fun to see the creative thinking with these name idea\'s.  It\'s also kinda forced and lame.  Let others name us when our numbers justify a name.

Do you really want someone from outside the scene putting a label on us? I don\'t trust music reviewers etc. to make that decision.



Let me ask you this,

Did the Dead fans name themselves Deadheads?
Did Phish fans name themselves Phishheads?

I ask because I am unsure of the answer.

I just think that self-naming our following is kinda of stupid. First, we are small. Second, outside of New England, most of us don\'t follow the band. I truely believe that all of us hardcores are obligated to go to shows that are in New England. When we finally start to grow noticably to the outside community then we deserve the name recognition. Until then, we are all just fans or groupies.


It looks like it came from the fans or the band to me...
http://dead.net/cavenweb/deadfile/history.html though it is hard to tell. There may be some info hidden the in archive pages http://dead.net/cavenweb/deadfile/home.html.Phisheads most certainly came from the deadhead term, and most likely was genereated by the fans as well

Parrotheads came from the band http://www.cobo.org/knowledge/glc/JBFAQ.html#2.3.

Funny how serheads seems to have won even though it was not in the original poll.  The term serheads appears in the first issue of Breakfast Digest, which means it is only a matter of time until the Merriam-Webster people get wind of it and put it in the dictionary.

I can\'t decide which is more embarrassing, this thread or the one about other bands fearing the breakfast.  Talk about portraying ourselves as a bunch of dorks.
