    Myspace, what do you think of it? And also I seem to remember a thread a few months back where an alternative way of getting onto the site was provied, seems 'the man' in my IT dept has blocked me using it in work and I believe there is another route? anyone?

    I was kindly offered two alt. routes on here before as I too am cheating 'the man' (close your eyes/ears Binokular!) but both have since become defunct....

    my space is great. I just use it as an alternative forum for checking out acts, like if you hear something about a band and they don't have mp3s on their site, chances are, they'll have a few on myspace. It's a great way to keep in touch with bands too what with the comment faciility and all. Every band should be on it, and every music journo too, if only to keep updated and develop a network of similar artists.

    Don't trust myspace, too much power. Don't trust iPods either.

    I'm a bit wary of Tom, he's always smiling and he's everyone's friend......almost too perfect for my liking.

    If the man gets you in a bear hug strech both your arms out in a chirst like pose then slam your hands on each of his ears, should burst the man's eardrums. Then push his eyes as far into his sockets as you can, this should leave the man screaming on the floor, and you with a chance to run away. Or try this: http://www.FlyLikeATurtle.com/, that's the circumventor they gave me.

    what una said. myspace saves you tons of time trying to find out where a new band's own website is (google is grand if the band are at a certain size but useless for small acts). well sorted out too and you can tell what bands are making an effort with it. as for tom, i'd hate to see his pad if all his mates turned up at once

    tom automatically becomes everyones first friend my you join my space. takes you a while to cop on that you're not that special and he is (was?) the geezer running the show. when you do, you promptly delete him. drop him like a hot spud.

    Cheers kids...but if it has 'IP' and 'Hide' or 'Proxy Aviodance' in the address then it's none too safe for me!!!!!!!!! Ah well, back to the drawing board!!!!!!
