What is the best way for an independent band to promote themselves?

[THAT1GUY]

the best way to promote your band it to spent the money. go get your self 200 blank cd's put 2 songs(original) on each disk, and hit the streets. hit the local music store ask them to put free demos on the counter. every time you see someone on the street explain the kin of music you play and give them one. make sure to put your info on the cd case so if they want to buy more they can. if your band is good everything will happen. when sales starts to get good get a Label and copy-write it. it will cost ya round 1000 bucks but its worth it. go independent. all it takes is the right person to hear it so get it out there.
