TRIBES, FANS AND FOLLOWERS

The web works in real time, it's instant and it's available in your palm. You can access your band, IM them, follow them on Twitter, FB them, blog them, and go see them play. This panel looks at the cultural relevance of the fan base and the developments in the band/fan relationship, its accessibility and its monetary purpose. Here we find out where our technology is taking us next and how the band experience is going to change via methods such as secondary ticketing.
