What Happens When You Unstan the Band? Fandom and Demanding Accountability

You're listening to First in Line, your all access pass to fan culture with Liv Fitzsimons and Elham Mohamud. First in Line is a community by fans, for fans.

We're joined by the former co-owners of the LANYChicago twitter update account to discuss their decision to unstan the band amid dissatisfaction with the way the band has been held accountable for alleged behavior. We discuss whether it’s possible to unstan a band but stay in the fandom, when their line was forever crossed, and the standards we have for the artists we support.
