Apologies to these bands, but well... here's how to cheat, or how to get ahead in Glasgow Indie Eyespy. Lets remind ourselves of how we calculate the rank of the bands...

Last.fm listener numbers
google matches
google jockrock matches

So if your band is doing crap, what you need to do is...

First record some songs as MP3 files and get them up on the internet, I recommend
MySpace.com and musicbuilder.net or your own website, somewhere where anyone can download the songs for free and listen to them whenever they like. Only mainstream pop farts charge for doanloading MP3s, you can do that when you're in the Premier League.

  • Second, sign up to last.fm, and get all your mates to sign up to last.fm too, and then make them listen to your songs.
  • Thirdly, spam every internet messageboard you can get into, proclaiming how great your band is and how to listen to the songs, I'd like to recommend Bowlie, Jockrock, drowned in sound, alternative nation, teenage fanclub messageboard, camera obscura messageboard, and I love Everything. Try to make sure they are messageboards with lots of people on them, there are too many ghosts out there.
    Fourthly, arrange some gigs, invite music journos, local media stars and anyone you know who writes a blog.
  • Finally, befriend the chap who runs jockrock. I'm sure he's a nice guy.
  • It was by using the first three points here that The Plimptons became the 2nd Division rock gods that they are.
