Welcome to the Mondo Magnets' MySpace page!
Many of you have written to me in the past asking what you can do to help promote my CD and my band. Thank you… now here’s your chance to help us rock the planet!
I would like to involve you, my fans and friends, to build our very own promotional army – the Mondo Magnets! After all, you are the ones who know where the best places to advertise are; you know the little corner CD shop that other music fans visit and you know all the cool music websites. So I want you to help spread the word and show people what my music is all about.
Anyone anywhere in the world can join and there are lots of ways in which you can help. You can choose to either join our Street Team, or - if you'd prefer to help in a strictly online basis - our 'digital' E-Team might be right for you.
I will be holding prize draws and sending free tickets to promotional events for active members - the more you work, the more you get! So if you want to help out in your local area, or possibly even get involved directly with our record distribution and marketing companies, sign up now!

Or if you’re creative, feel free to make one yourself and share it with us here!Post reviews of Mondo Magneto on Amazon.com , CD Baby , iTunes , Not Lame records or anywhere else you see the CD for sale. You could even add a review to your MySpace page. Every little bit helps in this time of independent CD promotion.Go to YouTube.com and post a comment and rate my new video for "I Liked You Better".Post on music forums and Yahoo! groups about the CD and live shows. Please remember to be polite and respectful when doing this and above all don’t spam sites with numerous posts! Most of the time this is counter-productive and can end up doing more harm than good.Search online for websites that have gig listings and make sure any of my upcoming shows are listed there.Call or email local newspapers, magazines, college papers etc and ask them to post listings of my upcoming shows in their concert sections. If they review CDs, you could also ask them to review Mondo Magneto. Be sure to get the relevant person’s name, address and phone number so that I can send them a press kit.
Ideas for Street Team Members

Distribute flyers at local gigs. When there are new shows to announce, I will add some ideas here.Call local radio stations and request my songs
If they say they do not have Mondo Magneto, please let me know and I’ll be sure to send them a copy. Once a copy has been sent, try requesting it again and if they still say they do not have any, we will then contact them ourselves to say yes they do! If you live in the US, and know a radio station that may be interested in the band doing an acoustic set, let us know. Full details needed please.Call or e-mail local newspapers, magazines, college papers, etc. and have them post listings of Brian’s upcoming gigs in their concert sections, including gig info, address, times, ticket price, etc.
