Elektra: The Album E-Team FAQ

What is an E-Team?

E-Teams are comprised of groups of fans that get together to help expose their favorite bands to friends and fellow music listeners on the web. Members send E-Cards, create their own fan -sites, post banners, instant message people, visit chat-rooms and bulletin boards and add links, banners, icons to their signatures. The team spreads the word throughout the world wide web via bulletin board postings, sending streams to songs and links to websites, instant messaging, and emails. Members also make radio station and video channel requests. Members can create, print and distribute Elektra: The Album flyers using the Automatic Flyer Maker.

What about Canadians and other non-US residents?

Unfortunately, we are unable to accept non-US residents at this time. Because bands have different record companies for each different country in that their album may be released, it makes it difficult to coordinate activities elsewhere and with the US. However, any fan is invited to promote Elektra: The Album using the materials we have created on the Elektra Music E-Team Home Page. Also, sign up for Elektra: The Album E-news to say in touch with what's happening with the band.
