I've found myspace useful for getting info out, lots of people who like my stuff or seeing me play (when I get may arse in gear) will be on myspace more than they'll check my site I reckon. Have used facebook a bit for letting my friends know about stuff too... Many of the kids in clubs round here use myspace, so it gets info out.
I try and just remember when I update my site to copy and past onto myspace too. Don't take much time.
One thing I have noticed, is I have had a few e-mails saying send us some tunes and we'll release them/put then on a digital label etc, but when you ask for terms/contracts etc they seem to disappear into the woodwork...![]()
