Hey out there! Interested in taking part in an anonymous academic survey about metal fans that seeks the truth and not more demonization? This is being conducted by two long-time metal fans who also happen to be a sociologist and a professional musician. If interested…please email us at wfschnee@... and I’ll forward a copy to you or link to an on-line version via http://home.earthlink.net/~wfschnee There is no obligation! In other words, once we send you a copy, its entirely up to you to return it or not. We will not hound you. Add Your Voice!!
If anyone considers this spam please accept my apologies for the annoyance. Of the hundreds of people we have contacted, only one has complained, but it was such a vehement response that I thought a bit of explanation was in order. Because metal fans are not an organized group of the sort usually studied by sociologists, it is difficult to get a broad cross-section of the community, hence, the manner in which we are trying to conctact people (along with setting up tables at concerts and the like). Again, please accept our apologies if this message has bothered you.
