Back in 2014 when my favourite band announced they would reform after nearly 20 years it was a very exciting time. Then in 2015 when RIDE played some gigs, I met some like-minded fans and we loosely formed a small group of 'über fans'. In 2016 I moved this forward to create the RIDE Über Fans Facebook group. I followed this in 2018 with a Twitter account. The group now has more than 150 members on Facebook (private group) and over 1,300 followers on Twitter. I have created a large number of badge designs and bespoke t-shirts. I have to say it is very satisfying when your favourite band acknowledges your work by wearing one of your t-shirts on stage and the fan group you founded gets a liner note / credit in a new album. The stuff of dreams.
