It's that very reason that I'm on MySpace now. I stayed away for so long, but eventually came to the realization that every day I don't get "myspace.com/toomanyhelicopters" is just one more day it's up there for somebody else to get. And in your case, I'm assuming it's a friendly site. In my case, I would expect, if anything, an internet stalker troll type weirdo to get it. So I got it, just to prevent it from falling into someone else's hands. And then I got a bunch of friend requests, from actual friends who I would feel crummy saying no to.
Oh, and FWIW, this weekend while Tutku was poking around at the practice space, she found an old red gym bag with a T&G/Tar matchbook in it. Apparently it entitles her to purchase an EP from T&G, something? And also somebody's People's Gas bill from 1993 was in there. She was blown away. You don't need that stuff back, do you?
