   Definetly myspace. Get on there and place your music up. Become friends on other bands myspace(same genre as you) and people will come. You have to place out the word and play a lot of shows and pass out fliers and what not with your band and place the myspace url on it.

   uhhmm make myspace banners;;
   have your friends post them in bulletins.
   &&place them on their pages.

   myspace is pretty much the only place
   where me &&my friends hear music.

   I would say myspace as well. banners are fantastic and having your friends post your songs as they’re profile song. but another thing is just browsing through people and adding them as your friends and also posting on other band websites ADD ME ADD ME and always say what type of genre you are whenever I see a band that posts the add me add me with a genre i like i always check ‘em out. And once someone fall in like with your music the news will spread like wildfire! Myspace is a fantastic place!
