MISSION: MySpace
Spreading the Love on MySpace
You all have been working so hard to help Lh. Now, I'm going to ask you for more. Most of you will have to step out of your comfort zone, but don't sweat it. I'm not asking you to do anything illegal.
Get Your MySpace Ready!
First, if you don't have a myspace, get one! You can check out these threads to find out about MySpace:
MySpace Graphics
List of Hammerheads' MySpace Addresses -- Add yours!
A MySpace How to -- Got a question? Ask it here!
MySpace Bulletins to repost
If you need any help with myspace, just ask in the How to thread. There are lots of Hammerheads who will help you with it. If you don't want to post on the board, then PM me. I'll help you.
Second, add one of Lh's songs to your myspace. Go to
myspace.com/lovehammers to add Trees, The Tunnel, Straight As An Arrow, or Casualty (The LH MySpace is messed up right now. Stay tuned.)
myspace.com/martycasey to add Clouds or Rain on the Brain
www.myspace.com/dinokourelis to add Merry Christmas (All Year Long), Straight As An Arrow, Eyes Can't , or The Riddle
Third, add your Hammerhead testimonial to your space somewhere. The "About Me" space is a great place for it. Here are some questions you can answer: Why are you a Hammerhead? What is it about Lh that is so special? Which are your favorite songs and why? If you saw Lh in concert, what was it like? Whatever you write, just make sure that your feelings for Lh and about Lh's music comes across. People are going to check out your space and we want them to leave their wanting to know more about Lh. (It's also a good idea to fill out the other interests sections - movies, TV, etc. It just makes your space look more real.)
If you need any Lh graphics for your myspace, check out the myspace threads:
Now that all the groundwork is laid, the real mission starts.
1. Go to a band's myspace - a band that you actually like other than Lh. Friend the band. Look through the band's friend list and pick a person.
2. Go to the person's myspace page and check it out. Find at least one good thing to say about it or one thing this person has in common with you.
3. Friend the person, and send them a message like the following one:
Hi! I'm [insert your name here]. I saw you on [insert band's name]'s myspace. I love [insert band name] too! I put in a friend request because I think we have a lot in common. Your myspace looks cool! I love [insert compliment here]. Another band you might like is Lovehammers. They are my absolute favorite! You can hear some of their songs on their myspace: www.myspace.com/lovehammers. My favorite is [insert Lh song here]. Well, talk to you later!
This is just a sample message. Customize it to make it sound like you.
This person might write back or not. If they don't, no big deal. If they do, cool! This person could actually get Hammered and turn into a Hammerhead. That just means that you really did add a friend.
Ok, did you do all that? Now, go back up to #1 and start over.
The more people you can network the better.
