New Media Research Studio

I’m still at the start and sort of stuck..I’m thinking about following a band and reporting about their audience reactions at live concerts and comparing them to the  reactions online. I want to find out if the youtube comments are based on FANS. I would like to research about Stalkers, Fans and obsessors of this band. I would also want to learn more about the online Hooligans. I’d also like to know whether promoters or managers actually comment on youtube.. but I guess that will be really hard. Maybe I will have to make some phone calls and ask some “insiders”. Lets see.
