Those photos will show up in the \u201cphotos tab\u201d of your band\u2019s Facebook Page (NOT on your wall). And because the person who tags the band doesn\u2019t need to have \u201cLiked\u201d the Page at any point previously, you\u2019ll be able to involve your fans in new ways such as:<\/p>\n<p>* Telling them to shoot video and photos of your concert and tag the band accordingly. Best entry gets free tickets to your next show in town!<\/p>\n<p>* Having fans tag your band in pictures of themselves in the audience, next to tour posters on telephone poles, buying your records in stores, etc.<\/p>\n<p>* Holding an album-cover contest where your fans can comment on tagged entries.<\/p>\n<p>What are some other ways in which Page tagging will help bands promote their music? We\u2019d love to hear your ideas.
