Musicians, what websites do you use?

This might seem like a weird set of questions, but hear me out. What do you use to share your music? What do you use to sell your music? What do you use to interact with people who listen to your music? If you play shows, do you use anything to keep track of where / when you play? Gimme everything you got.

Bandcamp seems like the best for free online distribution, just to state the obvious. I also use last.fm a lot, since that gives you kind of an idea of how many listeners you got relative to similar artists.

soundcloud for recordings, youtube for videos and facebook for promotion
