'sup Meredith.
Anyone else: Don't march in here with 90's nostalgia for Mmbop. This is for real, HARDCORE HANSON FANS!
Who was/is your favorite?

Middle of Nowhere was my first CD ever. I was 5 and I listened to it every night to fall asleep. I liked Zac the most, because he was the youngest and the cutest. I was never a hardcore fan, but my cousin (who is 8 years older than me) was really into them and posted on the Hanson message board and everything. Hell, she and her friend actually hacked into their e-mail accounts. They figured out the addresses and then guessed girlfriend names or something like that. Once they got into one, they were able to get into the others, and she said she knew it was definite because the address matched something official and I guess there were official e-mails regarding musician-like things. Pretty crazy.

I wish Isaiah/Kelley was here. Remember when she was gone from the board for ages, and then came back with a husband and a kid?! She was all about Hanson, too.

Yeah, Kelley was one of my main Hanson homies. She needs to come back for this immediately! And yeah, same here Leah. Literally in a bullying way by non-friends. Psh, Hanson play their own instruments so they can suck my dick. "Fly the wings of an eagle, fly along with the wiiind! No matter how hiiiigh! I've been thinking of you something something!" hahahaha. Aww I love that song. Reminds me of being 10.

I'm pretty sure I bought a poster pack of them when I was in like third grade because I thought they were girls, when I found out I gave the posters to my neighbor.
The only time I listen to them is when MMbop plays on NOW whatever (2 maybe)

Fun fact: Hanson was how I realised I was gay (or at the time, not normal/liked laydeez)
I was five or six when I found out they were dudes. And I was devastated. And I remember my friend Amy was like OMG WHY DO YOU CARE. But yeah, totally shattered my world.

I used to love them I think I still have Middle Of Nowhere, 3 Car Garage and Snowed In somewhere hidden. Taylor was my fave

Ahh I love MMMbop, such a good song to play in the Students' Union. I was never really into them when I was younger, but I bought their live album (although I don't know if there are any others) a while ago and it is SO GOOD.

No I don't think it's that one (because I thought it was a studio best of when I ordered it, woops haha). Just checked iTunes and it's "The Best of Hanson - Live and Electric".

I'll be seeing them for the third time next month. My sister loves them. I like the music okay (it's not all MmmBop!) but man, the fans at the shows are fucking awful.

What are the fans like these days? Last time I saw them was over ten years ago, and I was one of the kid fanatics.

I used to feel some serious hate towards the Jonas Brothers for being a total Hanson ripoff. Then I realized that the idea of forming a band with family and having the name of the family in the name isn't all that creative or unusual.
I've never really thought about what kind of fanbase they have now, especially since they're all grown up. Weird!

Hahaha yeah, at first I was like "fuck the Jonas brothers, they're just a fake Disney ripoff version of Hanson!" Then I realized they have a few catchy songs and I rescinded my Hanson loyalty. What a sellout.

A bunch of girls with their arms constantly in the air with a camera, complaining about how they can't see or go to the bathroom. Basically a bunch of fangirls in their 20's who don't seem like they have ever been to a show at a club before. The first time I saw Hanson, I got in a fight (yelling) before the show even started. Haha oh dear.
