MySpace U-R-Hell



Recently, a Baton Rouge, La. band called Bones lost their MySpace URL to the Fox TV show of the same name. After a press release and a bit of whining, Mr. Tom MySpace made good, and the band got their URL back.

How often do you search a band or label on MySpace by guessing the completely logical URL, only to get a ridiculous result that has nothing to do with the artist?

We compiled a best-of list for your enjoyment:

http://myspace.com/touchandgo
A photo of a shirtless, tattooed guido from Hawaii who is apparently into surfing.

http://www.myspace.com/tvontheradio
This belongs to a squirrel in Colorado who is a massive fan of Borat.

http://myspace.com/gangof4
Two young girls from Wildomar, Dom (Where??) who are into Chucky the homicidal doll.

http://myspace.com/djam
A cat who can fire a gun. Don't believe it? There is a picture to prove it.

http://myspace.com/minorthreat
This belongs to a fella who was negative-9 when Minor Threat split.

http://myspace.com/theslip
A Westside hipster with a nice 'stache who might actually know who the Slip are.

http://myspace.com/sickofitall
An artsy bloke from Malyasia where Sick of It All is huge, I am sure.

http://myspace.com/fugazi
Taking that URL is just wrong. Maybe you were one of those guys that Ian publicly tossed out of a show for acting like a "jackass."

http://myspace.com/thesmiths
Middle-aged guy from Alaska who has a Mariah Carey song streaming on his page. Ouch.

http://myspace.com/subpop
Metalhead from Spain. Right on.

http://myspace.com/zero7
A twenty-something film buff.

http://myspace.com/mattcosta
A jock who is -- you guessed it -- a big John Elway Jake Plummer fan.

http://myspace.com/superchunk
Snowboarding bloke from the U.K.

http://myspace.com/happymondays
This belongs to a raver from Down Under.

http://myspace.com/css
A teen Gap employee who is going to Washington in a few weeks.

http://myspace.com/fourtet
A British hip-hop head who straight up took the URL from the artist himself. Pretty rotten.

http://myspace.com/spinner
We wish we knew this guy. Streaming 311, background of half-naked Jessica Alba and looks almost exactly like K-Fed-Ex. You're HIRED, dude!

http://myspace.com/myspace
HAHAHAHAHA. That's all we can really say.

My old myspace url was www.myspace.com/crocodilehunter but it was sadly taken away from me for the hunter himself. outrageous!

You go to the musician's myspace and under each song on the player thats on the right side, is a bunch of options. one of them is add (its the option all the way to the right). click it
