These are 'fan-club' type requests. The internet has done a lot to make the fan closer to their fave bands but one thing that sems to have sort of disappeared is the conventional fan-club.
Once was a time when you could send off your money, get a badge, a regular(ish) magazine and (usually at around xmas) some fan-club-only record that would feature the type of stuff people have been chatting about on this thread.
Shame that with all the advances in technology, the humble fan-club has become something of a thing of the past.
