booooo. i’ve seen a few bands that do have them.. such as: www.facebook.com/theformat
just can’t figure out why..

It appears that they give custom Urls to big name bands and businesses. It’s through the ads and pages thing. Dave Matthews band has a custom url, so does American Eagle Outfitters, but local businesses don’t.

if you start a business page it’s possible.
