Most every band, at least the young ones, is using social networking site MySpace.com to reach out to fans. Some artists (or their families or record labels) were slow to catch on and have lost their MySpace domain names to young cybersquatters. Interestingly, some long dead artists have pages while some who are currently performing -- such as Dead Can Dance -- have missed the opportunity to grab the domain. They can still set up a page, but the MySpace.com domain bearing their names are gone.

• Dead Can Dance : An 18-year-old female from Kansas City, MO.
• Marky Ramone: A 25-year-old mohawked male from the Phillipines.
• Nick Drake: A 19-year-old female from Savannah, GA.
• Flesh For Lulu: A 16-year-old female from Saint Petersberg, FL.
• Arthur Lee, a 32-year-old from California.
• Billy Joel, a 26-year-old male from Van Nuys, CA.
• Buddy Guy, an 18-year-old male from Whitehouse Station, New Jersey.
• Fugazi, a 19-year-old male from Yucaipa, CA.
• Dead Boys, a 21-year-old from Long Beach, CA.

Not everybody has lost out to a squatter. Take these musicians who managed to grab a MySpace page:

• Jimi Hendrix
• Janis Joplin
• 2Pac and Tupac
• Pink Floyd
• Rush
