When looking at similar bands i chose to look at the script and coldplay as they share the same target audience as our band, 13 fathoms
Myspace
I started off looking at their MySpace page, a website used by all mainstream, current and unsigned artists to promote themselves to the public and fans, Myspace is mainly used for artistes and not a lot of the public now use it as Facebook and Twitter have take over.
ColdPlay
Coldplay has 1317910 friends
The Scrip
Friends (147528)
Both myspace pages allows fans to buy their albums online and other products also allows fans to listen online.
Facebook
I have looked on both Facebook sites and both bands have many followers, this page allows them to share pictured and give out information for the public, this also allows the public to share the information out advertising the band to a broader amount of people.

ColdPlay have 23,454,760 likes · 444,484 talking about them
The script

Twitter
I had a look at their twitter page which didn't include as much about the band but allows the members/crew to update their followers on the latest information about tour dates, singles & albums release dates etc. It allows for fans to contact and tweet back to the bands this had made twitter one of the most popular social networking sites as fans have so many ways to access their page and keep up to date and in contact.

As both bands are mainstream they have a variety of fans and a mixture of people from Rock to footballers all around the world as social networks have given artists the chance to gain a broader fan base and get their music out to everyone. This is like how our bands fan base would be like many different people.
