David Sedaris is a fanboy and I adore him for it. He geeks out over a wide range of things and I adore it. Examples: his Marah article (http://yeproc.com/news.php?articleId=975) and his Springsteen interview (http://observer.guardian.co.uk/omm/story/0,13887,1527571,00.html).
The other thing I really love is the quote (in TV/movies) or the cover (in music). In the series premiere of Weeds one a female 16 year old said to a male 16 year old: "You're 16. I could be talking about linoleum and you'd want to have sex." By that point in the episode I was already falling hard for the show but the Buffy reference further cemented my opinion. Cover songs in concert (and usually on albums) work similiarly.
Me? I fangirl TS Eliot, Bruce Springsteen, Nick Hornby, the Drive-By Truckers (all of them), Brian Andreas, and others (and not necessarily in that order)
