    The same way you monetize any Facebook page - affiliate links, products, selling posts, etc.

    Don't know if this is possible - but maybe you find a video course that teaches how to play all the bands songs, then share 1 or 2 of the videos with an affiliate link to the full product...that sort of this

    Hope this helps!

    1. Contact other rock bands, sell them links
    2. Put a gig on fiverr
    3. Put some cpa offers for ringtones which would also social media traffic
    4. Make videos of band and put on youtube, use adsense for videos;
    embed them on facebook
    5. Sell albums

    I hope this helps

    Here is an idea, you can always sell stuff on your FB page as suggested above, or you could be a little more creative. Maybe the next time you want to release an album or create another piece of band artwork or whatever it is. You could always start a project on Kick Starter.

    Instead of annoying your fans with ads (which if done well are not annoying but it's a fine line) why not have them contribute to funding your next project on Kickstarter. That way they feel that they have contributed towards your music which makes them the best kind of fans - cheerleaders and you can reward bigger contributors with signed copies of a CD or poster or whatever.

    People who contribute $1000+ for example would get to hang out with the band for a night etc. You get the idea but maybe bring your fan base into your world and have them be a part of it rather than just throwing offers at them. That's the type of creativity artists should be using in the download age in my opinion.

    All the best

    Maybe, it is best if you will narrow down your target market, first. This will help you come up with something that you think will fit their preference. But items for fans such as shirts and label them as limited edition this-and-that can tempt them to give you their money.

    Engage in conversations with the people on your page and see what they like, what they want, and why they would want to get it from you. Once you know what to do, doing it will be easy! People love to talk about themselves and if you ask them lots of questions, they should give you the answers you need to give them what they want and get paid for it.

      Good idea. Communicate with your page fans and learn directly from them what they really like. You can even make a poll, if you want. Or just make posts and ask them straightforward on what products and services that they would like to have that are related to their favorite rock band. Then, of course, cater to what the majority wants.

    I would say direct them to your website that maybe has some songs with it that you can charge for or do something in Clickbank and sell something related to music.
