Hi. I been made an investigation about the diferent fandoms (just for fun) and I fond that ome have many cool and clever names: Lorrd of the Rings: Ringers, Anime/Manga:Otakus (japanese for "fan"), Stargate tv series: Gaters (myself included), Harry Potter: Potterheads, One Direction: Directioners (meh), Kiss: Kiss Army, Videogames: Gamers, Star Trek: Trekkies, etc.

So, I've thinking that we, the Mike Oldfield Fans, we need a name like the other fandoms. A buddy suggested me "bellheads", but sounds very silly to me. I like more "Bellers" or "Oldfield's Nation".

Post your suggestions and we need to vote for one.


UPDATE 27/DEC/2013

I Think that the best option is "Tubularian". Sonds very fantastic/spacial, like The Songs Of Distant Earth style.

The term 'Tubularians' occasionally gets used around here...people on the Amarok mailing list used to (and probably still do) refer to themselves as 'Amarokians'.

Belligerents? ;)

Nah, too phallic.

I'm all for Tubularians, myself. It sound sci-fi-ish, or like something you'd come across when playing Skyrim.

Fielders!  Your choice as to whether you're an Infielder or Outfielder ;)

Love it, hahaha!  Actually, we could be the People of the Tubular Bells. But Tubularians will do for short. :)
