Our band has a web site, and a difference of opinion about how much interactive content it ought to feature. One view is that we ought to have a public forum, where regstered users can place posts. Another view is that such a feature invites irrelevant content, and serves no useful business purpose. We do have a e-mail link through which people can contact us, and a way for people to sing up for e-mail notification about upcoming gigs. The same debate exists with respect to a poll feature, which lists a number of songs and asks viewers to vote as to whether or not the band should do them.
Do you think inviting public particpation on your band's website, as described above, is in general a good thing? If you have added a forum feature to your site, did it prove to be a good way to attract people to gigs? Did it have any negative consequences?
